Health - 9 August 2007

"manias", he cheated on me twice. Once (going to dinner w/ girl and then making out) and the other time 2 mnths later and had sex w/ a different girl. We have a child together and have had a rollercoaster marriage (now, I know the reason why). He has been put on meds and is back to his normal self and feels horrible for everything he has done. But, personally, I am battling my emotions. Part of me wants to understand and excuse him b/c he was out of his mind basically but the other part of me thinks I am being one of those "stupid girls" who is a push over. I am wanting to know if anyone has had a cheating bi polar spouse and if they got through it and how? Or, if they left the relationship and are better off? Please help!!! Thanks!

I am gonna get braces (top and bottom) in just over a week and realised hey, perhaps I won't be able to play my cornet anymore. Is it still possible to play a cornet (and trumpet) with top and bottom fixed braces? Is it just a case of take a few weeks off and then get used to it or is it just impossible? I kind fo want to know as I plan to get an A-Level in music on my cornet (2 year course) and if I need braces for two years then I'm pretty much stuffed.

Thanks

For the last few years, I have been feeling really, really bad. I get exhausted for no real reason. I have weird aches and pains. I get sick to my stomach. It doesn't matter how much I sleep, or how well I sleep. Losing weight, eating right, exercising, drinking lots of water, etc has done nothing to help. It's not my blood sugar, I'm not anemic. It happens thoughout the year, so it's not seasonal allergies, although heat doesn't help. Sometimes it will go away for a few months, then start back up again. I can't concentrate on anything. I get dizzy. I have times when I have to stop what I'm doing and lay down on the floor of my house. I have a hard time driving. Stress makes it worse, but I have symptoms whether I'm stressed or not. What some possible causes?

I had my first ever period yesterday and today I didn't bleed at all, is this normal considering it's still in the beginning? And how long does it usually take for periods to regulate?

at times when i feel really lethargic and sleepy and even naucious, i tend to pee a lot even though iv not drank so much water, does that mean that the blood sugar in your body is low or your blood pressure? (i'm not diabetic)
it usually happens if iv not ate much in a couple of days since iv been working alot.

i hope these are not sighns of diabetes and can some one tell me how i can stop it e.g what food is better

My case manager told me that because I told her that my depression & anxiety affect my performance in college. & I told her I can't concentrate when someone is popping their gum doing the middle of an exam. & she said they have every right to pop their gum since they pay their money. & I said "Well that's why I need my disability testing accommodations in a quiet area in the testing center so I can be able to concentrate better on the tests. I do have the right to receive those accommodations." & she said I was making excuses for my poor performance in school & that I should take my tests in the classroom just like everyboody else. & she says her job is to help me, but everything she tells me hurts. & she thinks I should stay in the classroom & tolerate the gum popping ignorance & distractions. & she thinks that me saying I get distracted easily is an excuse to say I can't do the work. If I push myself too hard I get an anxiety attack & have to go to the hospital which I wanna prevent.

Is it an allergy or intolerance?
Symptoms include nausea, and just feeling downright sick; the next day. Not while the firecrackers are going off, but the following day.

A friend of mine & her mom have been trying that Hoodia & swear by it cause it helps suppress your appetite. I know proper eating & exercise are the best thing for losing weight & I will be working on that but I'm thinking of taking it just so I can't eat as much....I have a pretty big appetite.

ANYWAYS, the thing I was wondering was: does Hoodia interfere with the effectiveness of birth control at all?? I know things like st. john's wort, antibiotics & certain other meds can but does Hoodia?????

Everytime something goes wrong, no matter how small, I find that life would be better if i was just.

I always wonder if i need to go to some therapist but my family would never take me seriosly if i told them that i was suicidal. Infact, i think they might even laugh. I've been this way for about 3 years now, almost.

Is there anything other than therapy that might help me?

I have optic neuritis and have lost considerable vision in my left eye. I have been on steroids to treat this but my vision got worse instead of better, my eye doctor wants to know why, so he reffered me to an optic neurologist in Nashville. What can he do for me? what will he look for?

I met my friend Jessi at the end of 2006, as we worked together. She moved to PA in April with her boyfriend and her son. She was driving with her boyfriend and didn't remember who he was, or the date. She thinks she is still in 2005, yet we are in 2007. She doesn't remember her child being born but she does know that he is her son. She doesn't remember who I am, except for what her boyfriend tells her. I just talked to her on the phone today and tried to jog her memory as best as I could. They will not except her in a pychward because she is two weeks pregnant.

Does anyone know what could cause this memory loss?

I've tried like the dickens to get counseling for the aggravated sexual assault I went through a month ago. I've called all the hotlines and they couldn't help, I called my church and even my old church and they couldn't help me.

When I say they can't help I mean that I can't even seem to get a human on the phone, all I get are "leave a message at the beep" and no one ever calls back. My church said the "counseling pastor" is gone on vacation until next month. It's so ridiculous that I can't even find one sympathetic ear, so I said "okay God I get the hint, I have to help myself".

So I'm asking, how do I help myself overcome this? Can you recommend a book or tape that can help me deal with this terror I feel now and then, and the depression that follows it?

Please please don't tell me to keep calling, I seriously gave it a good try and got nothing for my effort, I can't keep doing it. If I don't get help soon, I'm afraid I might die.
