I have a pet rat, that I have had for over a year.....I picked him up today and a few minutes later, my wrists started to itch and burn, so I put him down and looked and my wrists were covered in massive swollen hives. What is this all about? I don't get it!

...and they see you all the time. Does it upset you when none of them talk to you?

A couple of months ago I started getting charlie horses in my foot every couple of days. In the past week or so it has increased to several times a day. It is sooooo painful and I don't know how to stop them. I think it's probably really dangerous too when my right foot cramps up while I'm driving.. anyone else have them and know what causes them/what you do to stop them?? thanks ahead of time =)

My doctor said that its positive so it could be a uti, or a bladder infection or cystitis or my kidney's, so he's not sure without me getting further testing, i don't have insurance and they want to do so many tests, I have neither the money nor the time off from work to keep getting all of the testing they want, but if it does go away it comes right back, at one point he wanted me to go in the hospital for kidney failure because I also have trouble urinating, sometimes I can't even go one time a day, when I do, i have to push and concentrate really hard to go, also I am retaining about 30lbs of extra fluids that is driving me crazy, i went from a size 1 and 3's to 7's and 9's i feel fat, swollen, bloated and crazy from it, can anybody help, also I am extremely thirsty all of the time, my normal body temp is 97. I have taken the cipra, levaquin and several other antibiotics none work...please help anybody?

Hello- to those who have taken/are taking Lexapro...I've been taking Lexapro for 2 weeks for panic and anxiety. Last night I took my boyfriend to the airport, I was crying, and I couldn't stop. Eventually I was hyperventilating, and then I had numerous panic attacks. I've had panic attacks about death since I was young, and the upset from leaving my boyfriend caused the panic attacks about death. I can't stop thinking about how one day I'm going to die. I think it is fear of the unknown. I went to my doctor who gave me Xanax, and told me that Lexapro makes symptoms worse before they get better. This doesn't make any sense to me. I asked him and he told me that's how we know it's working. He said to take Xanax as needed, and the anxiety and panic attacks should subside in two weeks. I don't know if I can make it until then with this anxiety! Is it worth it? Can Lexapro work after such terrible initial side-effects?

Does it make a difference whether you go to sleep at say 1 or 2 am, or 11:00pm? Does it make a difference when your trying to gain height?

Is this adequate time for the muscles to rest? Is this more beneficial then every other day? The winner gets a homemade pie.

i used to be a meth addict about 4 years ago (i was addicted for 2.5 years). After that i was perscribed Lexapro 20mg once daily, Welbutrin SR 150mg twice daily. Now i take that plus a nightly birth control pill, about 5-6 Vicodin/daily (the "doubleshot" ones) and if i don't have those i take my friends Adderall about 2 times a day. I know this sounds stupid but, i am going to die if i don't stop soon huh?
