Ok, so in my upper thigh I am getting really terrible leg cramps. It started last night when I was driving home from the fire works and I couldn't move my leg. It has been coming back off and on since then. I get plenty of exercise, and my job requires standing all day. Should I wait it out till tomorrow or go see my doctor? Do you know what could be causing this? It really hurts.

Not Viagra, as that's no use unless you want sex in the first place.

Some kind of testerone replacement maybe?

Not for me you understand, my friends cousin asked =)

I asked this question about 6 months ago and wanted to ask again to get a new set of people's take on this.

I am 20 years old and consider myself healthy. However, I have noticed a trend (most of my life) that is bothering me. Every time I eat even mildly greasy foods (Chicken Parmesan, pizza, chicken fried steak, hamburgers etc), I frequently throw up or get diarrhea afterwards. In my history, its been more throwing up than diarrhea.

I don't overindulge on the food either, but instead eat modern portions. I don't think this is normal to not be able to tolerate these foods (friends at same meal don't seem to complain). Is this a condition or is it best to just avoid these foods? THis is very difficult when this can happen at dinner parties, out to eat with friends, etc.

Thanks in advance.

Is it that hard to educate one's self?

1) A person who worries has the average amount of everyday worries. (job/money/family problems)

2) A person who on the verge of becoming homeless (having his home foreclosed and their family living on the streets.

3) A person in a third world country "already knowing in their mind" or the "constant thought" that they will die from starvation.

If the examples aren't clear, I mean to ask what are the effects to the body comparing "sporadic stress/worry with periods of ease" (sine wave pattern) VS. the same sine wave pattern of stress but with increased amount and increased frequency VS.
Very high level of stress at a constant amount (very high = inevitable thoughts of death)?

Would there be an obvious difference by looking at these people over a short time? how about over a lengthy period of time?

Thanks

I recently had back surgery to repair a ruptured disk in my upper back. My current bed is very old and worn, and I believe that it is contributing to the back pain that awakens me when I try to sleep in my bed. I don't have much money for a new bed - what can I do to find some relief?

this sounds weird i know, but how to stop your inner voice (your voice inside your head, self talk, whatever) from talking? In a sense it is your voice that is 'thinking' NOT various voices in your head but your own....sometimes this interrupts my sleep at nite b/c i cannot shut 'off' my brain from talking/thinking, this can go on all day long and it makes me tired.... is this indicative of a mental disorder? or is this how everyone's head is? please help.
