I have been recently diagnosed with Sleep Apnea and am now on a waiting list to visit a sleep clininc to determine what kind of treatment I need, which I have been told could take months, unfortunately due to my circumstances I am not entitled to a medicare card and I do not have the money to go private, therefore I am a sitting duck. In the mean time is there anyone out there who can suggest a remedy, or anything which will help me sleep at night until I get the proper treatment, preferbly something that will not leave me feeling drowsy or hung over the next morning. I constantly wake up, and when I do wake I cannot go back to sleep, most nights I wake about 2am and lie awake until I have to go to work. It is getting unberable. Does anyone have any suggestions Please.

i started working in a truss plant. hammering all day. arm is very sore, calluses starting to form. i know u should give your muscles a rest between excersises, but this is a job. quitting or doing something else is not an option.

what can i do about my sore arm, while i continue to work? also, calluses are FORMING, meaning white, puffy blisters, that would pop when i continue working... what do to about that?

My mom has bipolar disorder and I've read it's genetic. I have most of the symptoms so far and I decided to try and self diagnose myself...I hate phychiatrists...anyways... I have auditory hallucinations occasionally, so I wanted to know if this might be a symptom of bipolar or maybe a symptom of something else. I usually don't preoccupy myself with labeling something as abstract as my own thought processes....but...I was curious. Also I've been diagnosed with OCD...if that means anything...

I have extreme hypochondria, I am a virgin waiting for marriage but I am extremely terrified of HIV and having it. I am scared that my darkened skin is due to jaundice which can be a symptom of HIV. However, a few weeks ago, I was burned pretty badly in the tanning bed....does this have something to do with things? Although I am a virgin, I get so scared so I have been tested for HIV 3 times within the last year and everyone of them came back negative, I am not an IV drug user, I am a virgin and my parents are completely healthy. Should I worry about my darkened skin being jaundice or is it just from whenever I was burned from the tanning bed?

What's the usual dose of valium that doctors prescribe? I have been prescribed 2mg and it doesnt seem to do anything for me. And too, how do I go about asking him to up it. If I say it's not working then he will put me on something else and I don't want that because nothing else works. If I had to put it's effect into percentage I'd probably say it works 10%
PLEASE Help!!!

It's not a definite but i was thinking of taking a diet pill. Trimspa looks to be ok, but i dont know anything about it, such as side affects, and results. I am def. over weight and i hardly have time to work out. I will work out even if i dont take a pill, but thought it would be nice to get a little help. Speak your mind because i'm not to sure about this at all... Thanks!

I know everyone says that you shouldn't starve yourself to become thin but, if your body goes uses fat when you don't consume the calories it needs, wouldn't just use up all your fat in like a week or so? Thus being, is starving yourself a good way to lose fat fast?

People always say that to lose that last bit of excess fat, you should run a few miles and few times a week. But here's the thing- I can only run about 1/3 of a mile straight! I'm not overweight at all, just out of shape I guess ):

It really sux to be me!!! I'm going into 7th grade, I'm 210 pounds, and I just got braces. It really sux. This summer, I want to give my self a full makeover. Can anyone help???
In 6th grade, I got 5 failing grades the 2nd semester, and somehow passed??? Don't know how, but I did. Everyone teased/teases me, and 6th grade was just hell!!! I want to be skinny before 7th grade starts or at least make some progress. I'm active, it's my eating that makes me fat. It's just so heart breaking, because I used to be soooo pretty, and sometimes when I look in the mirror I can see the skinny girl within!!! Pleas help me to go on some sort of realistic diet so that I can lose some weight this summer!!!
