well i have been coming off depression and my meds have been working wonders for me. i have done a complete 180. i used to have self hatred and hated my life but now i love my life and love myself and dont think of my problems as anything but challenges i have to overcome. Only thing is if i get a pretty big setback or something happens i still have a breakdown. Its not as severe as i had but its about a medium breakdown. My emotions come through and it happens about every 2 weeks. I just was wondering if it was normal to still have less severe breakdowns every once in a while.

any feedback will be greatly appreciated ,thanx

peace.

I have a growth that I am having removed inside my vaginal wall. The doctor said it probably looks like a nabothian (cervical) cyst, but he won't be sure until it is removed. The more I thought about it, I realized that the growth is not really near my cervix, but on the left side of my vaginal wall. It is painful to touch, especially during sex, and I have had more vaginal discharge than normal in the past 8 months and through research found that it is a symptom for many other things. I have chronic pelvic pain, nearly every day, and my period is the worst. I feel like I am in labor, and have a heavy feeling in my vagina. I often feel feverish and/or nauseated right before and during my period with fatigue constantly. I have been diagnosed with PCOS and possibly endometriosis. The doctor had my prolactin and testosterone levels retested this past week but is on vacation so I won't get the results for another week and a half. Please read details, I ran out of room...

I've been pondering over my dark eye circles for about 2 years. I had dark eye circles mainly due to insufficient sleep and facing the laptop for whole day. I do not have a choice to sleep more and not to face the laptop that often since I am studying subjects relating to information technology.

I cannot go to beauty salon as the charges are high (~S$950) and I can't afford it (I'm saving up to go overseas for internship and also to lessen my parents' burden on financial circumstances of my family). I hope to use items at home to get rid of my very dark eye circles. If possible, I hope to get rid of it within 1-2months (60days).

I recently took my 5 month old to the pediatrician for wheezing and she said that he had RSV/bronchitis and she informed me that they cannot give an infant of his age antibiotics and that if he started to have trouble breathing or didn't improve to bring him back.....So about 2 days later he started running a fever and having trouble breathing so i took him to the local E.R department and the on call physician diagnosed him with pneumonia/bronchitis and gave him a breathing treatment at the hospital and sent him home with an antibotic and a prescription for albuterol syrup, so i filled his prescription for the medicine and did a follow up visit in 2 days like instructed and it was with another doctor because his pediatrician was on vacation and this doctor took him off the albuterol and put him on a breathing treatment until his appt in 5 days with his normal ped. what can be wrong with him? asthma? allergies? please help me i am very scared!-mother of three in ohio

I don't feel like myself. I just don't understand it. I turned 18 a couple of days ago and I was really excited that day. I am about to graduate in May and am pretty excited to go to college. Then you have all the rest....my dads shoulders are finally giving out and he will have to find a new job eventually. I don't even have a job myself, and I need one, but with all of the days that I am going to need off I don't even know if I should look for one. I feel like junk...I have a runny nose, ears hurt and I have been cleaning my house non stop for the past 2 days. I am just so tired off all this crap. My parents can hardly pay the bills because of my dads shoulders hurting all the time and I am just stuck in a rut. I want to help my parents out with the bills, but I have to find a job first. My friends aren't even really my friends any more...does anyone have any advice on what I should do?

I had an abortion at the start of the year, and because I was over 9 weeks (only just), I had to have an op.

Everything went okay, but I was advised to have a checkup after 3 weeks.

I never had the check up, although I followed the other stuff which included no sex for three weeks, no heavy lifting and no long hot baths.

I feel fine and everything, although I think my body will take a little while to adjust to the change.

I will be okay, even though I never had the check up, won't I?

Hi. I am going to be about 4 days away from my cycle when my doctor told me start taking the pill. She said start sunday. If I take the pill 4 days before it is supposed to start will it hold of my cycle until the placebo pills. the b/c is called YAZ. I guess its called the quick start method of birth control when you start it any day in your cycle.

Please give me some info
If you did it please tell me how you did it and if it held of your cycle until the placebo pills.


Thanks

I think that suicide is more common now becuase:
-Parents work later hours arent around to talk to there kids, cook, and just be romodels as much as they used to be.
-Its easier to get drugs, alchol and other things then it used to be.
-kids r being more cruel in school.
This is just my oipion and these things have lead somepeople i know to attempt suicide.. what do u think?

Its the weirdest thing...I have never had a nosebleed in my entire life until a month ago when I guess the weather got a little warmer. Now I have them every other to every day. The worst part is that they are bad and don't stop bleeding for 2 hours. I am going to get my veins caterized but any advice for how to deal with them or stop them?

I'm overwhelmed with stress right now and it is beginning to effect my physically. Is there any good online sites available where I could post my thoughts on a message board or something? I can't afford anything and have benefited from a grief support group in the past, so I was thinking a stress support group could help.
