I believe my mother has symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. I don't know for sure and she is refusing to see a doctor. I want her to live with me so that I can look after her and she refuses to see a doctor to get diagnosed or get some help. I stayed with her for a while and she forgets my name. She also puts odd things like pet shampoo in the refrigerator. She is paranoid about neighbors we have known for years trying to rob her and kill her! She cannot cook anymore because she burns her pots and pans. She used to be interested in things and it seems like she has lost interest in everything. She is restless and up all night and sleeps in the day. She was never like this before and I have noticed major personality changes over the past year or so. She used to be a dynamic very intelligent woman. Shrewed business woman. Now, she cannot even keep her checkbook. I am worried about her! I really love her and want to take care of her but how can I get her to see a doctor?

I have had to work overtime this week(13 hrs a day) I noticed my legs are feeling weak and my heels hurt and my legs get tingling when I do sit down. Why is this? Am I on my feet too much and how many hours are too many when you have a job that requires you to stand up all day.Will sleeping all weekend help?

I have a history of high blood pressure, but have been on an weight loss and nutrition plan to reduce my weight and improve my health. So, it has really gotten under control in the last 4 months.

This morning, my trainer had me jumprope for 4 minutes (2 minute intervals with a 5 min weight lifting routine in between jumping sessions). Now, my head is hurting slightly, I notice my feet are slightly swollen and my left knee is really stiff. Is this common when you start jumping rope (I am 5'5" and am about 45 pounds overweight at this point)?

Like, if you didn't touch the person and you were just in the sort-of perimeter of the person at some points during the course of a day, would you most likely catch the sickness of that person? Whether, cold, flu, etc.?

I donated plasma for the first time yesterday. Afterwards I sat there for 15 minutes and felt fine. I even stopped at a gas station before I got home to get a gatorade. I live on the 3rd floor of my apartments, and as soon as I started up the stairs I almost blacked out. I finally made it to my apartment, but I felt sick the rest of the night even though I drank a ton more of water and juice and had healthy meals.

Now today I woke up and I feel like a total basket-case.
I have been crying for no reason, and things that usually don't bug me are making me so crazy and upset that I cry more.
If I get up quick from sitting or laying down I still get a little dizzy, but I'm not to worried about that. I just have never felt so sad/upset about stupid stuff this badly before in my life!!!

Does the way I'm feeling today have anything to do with donating plasma yesterday, or am I just having a really bad day?

Well, for a while now I haven't pooed every day like your supposed to. I've even gone a week without. I eat semi-healthily, although I don't eat that much. I'm vegetarian, 18 and average weight.

I've never really seen any problem with it, but I know its not normal. You don't need to shout at me to go to the doctors. I'd just like some advice. Not a lecture.

I know I shouldn't be doing it, but I was masturbating. My dad gets home at six tonight, my mom is aay with a church meeeting for the weekend. I'm 13, my older bro (He's 17) caught me masturbating about a half hour ago. We have this weird shaped bathroom it's kinda like a U. I was masturbating on one side of the wall totally naked and going full force. Just as I finished, my brother came in the room and I had no idea we was coming, and he saw every detail. He just kinda smiled and walked away. He went to hang out with some friends, so I'm alone now. What if he tells my parents? What do I do? Why was he smiling? Maybe I'm just paranoid? He's never been the ***-hole typical brother to me, in fact he's been really cool to me, but still! Also, this is kinda embaressing, but I can't stop masturbating, and I kinda need some...lube. Any advice where a 13 yr old can get some? Sorry If I come of as a pervert. So Sorry!

Ok I stopped taking the in April, the reasoning behind it was because I was having a period for two months straight. My Gynie put me on estrogen pills and took me off the depo when my next shot was due. I switched to the pill but haven't taken any. Im not pregnant but I haven't had a period sence April. Also I would really like to concieve soon, though I took the Depo for about a year, and I know that it takes 6 to 18 months to regain furtility, though if anyone has any advice on how to boost firtility would also be nice. My biggest concern right now though is if I am broken, I dont know if I will be able to have children, I dont know if that darn shot made me barren. If someone can give me any answers or any advice I would be much appreciative.

I was wondering if there is a bug that can get underneath your skin. I have this painful bump at the base of my head and there have been these little bugs I have been finding at my house and I am freaking out because I am paranoid that a bug has buried itself under my skin!!!!! I have my hair cornrowed and it is very tight could the bump be from the braids and the tightness on my scalp? I am freaking out here and I am alone at home right now so there is noone that I can ask to look at at. Any help would be great.

I wanted to try the Nutrisystem Diet plan. However, I am not over 18.


What else can I do. I didn't really want to have to work out constantly. Not that I am lazy, but I don't really have the time.
Is there anything similar to the Nutrisystem plan?


Thank You :]

Yesterday all I had to eat was a mini tortilla with salsa, a donut, and a cookie. Is this healthy, because that's pretty much all I eat every day.

Okay people, I am starting to get a bit freaked out by this drug. I was just given a script to get it filled by my doc, since I am super sensative to alot of the mood stabilizing drugs. Apparently, this drug has very little side effects, although, as I am reading, there is a chance that your heart can just up and stop beating no matter how healthy you are, even if you never have had any side effects from a heard disorder or suffer from one. Okay, a bit scary. Anyone currently taking this med or has taken it in the past??? Please fill me in and give me your 2 cents. If there are other drugs out there that I may not be as sensative to, maybe I might need to forgo this one.

FYI: I am currently on Seroquel and Celexa. I have been on Depakote and Lamictal in the past as well as Risperdal, all three of which made me sick, very sick. Like I said, I am super sensative.

My BR is scheduled August 1st and I'm really nervous about it. How painful is the post op? How long did you have to take your muscle relaxant and pain killer? Also, my doctor told me I could carry my university books but everywhere else is telling me not to, what do you think? Can you tell a difference (is your breasts smaller) right after the surgery? I've been to all the websites and have done countless hours of research but I don't really have anyone to talk to about it who's had the procedure done.
