I'm currently taking Yasmin as birth control. I've been using some form of oral contraceptive for about ten years. I suffer from migraines (about 15 per month). I have tried meds such as Topamax and other preventatives, however nothing helps. I take Imitrex and Furinol as needed but taking that many pills can't be healthy.

I am ready to stop taking Yasmin in hopes that my migraines will become less frequent or less intense. Has anyone ever stopped taking the pill and experienced worsened migraines because of it?? If so, how long does this last?? I am assuming that, after taking the pill for so long and then stopping, it will have some effect on your body. Any experience would be helpful!! Thanks.

I have a friend who created 3 or 4 split personalities due to post traumatic stress.

One deals with anger, sadness, and all negative emotions, to cope the pain he feels. He likes to put all his pain on this personality. He refers to this Persona as a demon known as Hina. Hina is suicidal.

The second one is a normal everyday one he uses a lot of the time, normal young adult, happy, goofs around with friends.

Now a third one is a girl persona - this one is nameless. She said she's in love with a man, but I am concerned what this could do psycholically to him since they are dating. What should I do?

My doctor is keen for me to have cortisone injections into my shoulders and wrists, but I have a problem with this in case they hit a nerve. I have on occassion it a nerve myself (insulin) with a thin needle, but though thought of a thicker one is making me feel quite unneccessary.

I am wondering how much they hurt, what damage can be done, and why I could not have them done while under ga for another operation due in the next few months!

I think it is annoying when doctor's continue to say, "We have no ideas how people gain Schizophrenia and Split-Personality disorders. yes, the two are different, but we've yet to discover how they come about."

First off.. I am one who suffers from Schizophrenia. Which is caused by a dramatic (negative and continuous) occurrences in your life. Your life is so miserable that eventually your mind "splits" and becomes two people, three, four, even up to 10 different "other people".

As for split-personality, I'm not sure how that one is cause, but I'm guessing you may be born with it OR even, like Schizophrenia, gain it from a bad experience in life as a child.

I'm sorry, I just needed to let that all out.

I think I have a some kind of mild OCD. I obsessive over problems I have with people and the sorts of things I couldv'e done differently. When I get an idea in my head I can't let go of it and I just keep obsessing over that one thought. It keeps me up at night and I can't sleep. Suddenly everything will remind me of a relationship I feel like I screwed up, and I can't think of anything else and I just drift off, unable to focus. It's not just with my thoughts, either. I feel the need to organize things, keep random things like my music collection in perfect order so I know exactly where everything is. I have to finish things like books and moives, and I can't just stop halfway through. I organize things on desks like a game of tetris and leave them in a very set positions.
Is this some sort of condition? And is there something I could take to make me a little looser, forget about social issues I obsess over and not clean stuff so particularly?

Hi I'm looking to lose about 50 pounds but don't know what to try yet. Weight Watchers, Nutrisystem, abs diet? I know I need exercise and lots of water but I'm trying to figure out what diet plan to go on. Anyone had any success in losing a lot of weight on nutrisystem or any other plan for that matter? If so, how many pounds and in what amount of time? Thanks for any help!

So, a few weeks ago I got a terrible stomach ache, so bad that I was doubled over clutching my belly, and could hardly walk. No medicine or tea would help, and I just had to sit it out. After about 4 hours it stopped. I hadn't eaten anything strange nor had I had my period, but since it was gone, I didn't worry too much about it. But then, two weeks later I got another one as bad as the first, and it lasted about seven hours. Now, last night I just got another.

I couldn't sleep for hours, and finally at about 1:00 I fell asleep, still in pain. I woke up and felt fine, but now I'm nervous as to what it is.

Someone said something about my gallbladder, I think, and that it might have to be removed. Does that sound like a possibility? Does anyone know anything else it could be?
