I have recently been diagnosed with Endometriosis and was set up to receive a series of 6 months of Lupron Depot injections. Now because of this annoying desease, I no longer have my medical coverage and no longer have funding for my future injections. I am all out of resorces and at my wits end. Does anyone know of any other method, or patient assistance program, or possibly want to loan me $1800?! Ha. Also has anyone used this FIBROVAN? I went to the website but am still skeptical.

These charley horses aren't the garden variety type ... (back of leg and toes cramping up)

The leg cramp, basically seizes the area of the shin and radiates from the top of my ankle all the way up to my knee. Sometimes I experience the excruciating pain of both legs seizing up on me at once. The cramping last about 3 to 5 minutes.

My foot cramps seize up my foot from the top, curling my toes upward and freezing my foot in a mangled mess for several moments until it slowly loosens up.

THE PAIN! Nothing like I've experienced before... nothing like back of the leg pain ... that's easy!

This leaves me screaming in pain as I try to walk it off in the middle of night. Stretching, compresses don't even touch the problem ... walking is the only thing that takes me through it.
I am so exhausted .. I'm going backl to bed!

Thoughts ... support?

Thanks

So i'm leaving on vacation to my lake house and all my family and I will be doing is jetskiing and boating in the middle of the lake all day for a week. Problem is, I'll be on my period. The thing that sucks is when to freakin change my tampon! I dont want to ask my dad if i can 'go to the gas station for candy' like every 4ish hours just to cover up the fact that i need a restroom to do my 'duties'. What should I do? Should i just use a higher level of tampon protection? lol aghhh! i'm so frustrated! help!

Sometimes i will comment a funny video on the internet, get distracted and i guess rewatch the video, or maybe i dont, but i will comment AGAIN without realizing i commented it 2 minutes ago.. i will have no memory of commenting it the first time and its a little freaky..

another example

i will text someone 'hey'
and they will text me back 'hey'
and i will text them again 'hey'
only to later find out, i started the conversation.. and i never remember texting them at all. i totally have no clue it has happened

im only 15 so its not coming with old age ;)

but what is this? is this short term memory loss?

sometimes when something happens to me, i guess i create a false memory.. even something like me tripping and falling on the ground, i might think that my cat had jumped in the way and i was trying to look up and i jit the wall with my foot or something totally ridiculous.. or maybe if i get fouled in soccer (football) i make up what really happened and i tell people what i think happened but really i made it up? i dont get it
why am i making up totally poinltless false memories?
is this just me? or are other people doing this?

this doesnt happen very often.. but when it does happen i cant go back and start telling ppl what really happened bc what i 'make up' becomes reality to me

For the past week or week and a half, i've been having butterflies in my stomach. Does anyone know why? I'm not nervous or excited or anything. Do you guys have any answers for me?

Is there a possibility that i could be pregnant?
I would only be either 4 or 5 weeks exactly. Would i feel butterflies??

I'm a teenager who masturbates on a regular bases and since i'm unable to purchase lubricant, i was wondering whether it would be ok to use vaseline. I want to know whether it can cause infections or irritations. Usually i get by with just my natural lubricants but sometimes i need something to get me going.

Thanks

I was just taking a shower, & this was the most I've sneezed in my whole entire life! I know I'm getting sick, & so many sneezes has caused me a headache.

& also, is it true that if you take a shower or go swimming, & then enter a cold environment, like a cold room with A/C, then you're prone to a cold or is that a myth?

Having missed a couple of periods ( I am going through menopause) I took the morning after pill and consequently got my period. If I wasn't due to get my period that month would the morning after pill have brought it on? I am a bit up and down with my cycle at the moment and it is a bit hard to know if I am going to get a period or not.

My friend wants me to go to the waterpark today and I promised her I'd go, so I can't back out. I really really hate tampons (very uncomfortable with them.) Is there anything else I can do and still go on all the water rides and pools there? I really hate being a girl sometimes :(

I am a 22 year old, healthy girl with good eyesight but I keep bumping into things. For example, I will go to walk through a door and end up crashing into the frame. Not just occasionally, but about 10 times a day. My arms and legs are covered in bruises! It would be nice to have an explanation. I think it is somehow related to my spatial awareness.

I have only been experiencing it for the last month.

Suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
