Moms asking: how can she stop using Dicyclomine, and does it give cancer? Will this help her as she grows old?

THe main point is, she eats fiber, she does EVERYTHING the doctor says, but she doesn't want to take the medication since she has too many and doesnt want to take it forever. Blah blah, that's what she's asking.

I take three sleeping pills a night, and every night two headache pills. It helps somewhat, but now I have been thinking about taking more of those pills. It would be easy to OD, and even easier to slit my wrists. I am alone at my house for nearly 2 hours a day.

I'm talking to someone, but I can't completely open up to them. I'm tired of trying to open up to people. I feel as if everyone would lie.

Honestly, I don't want to feel better. I've been this way so long, I don't trust change. What if I do get better, and is there a better? I have no friends in school, I'm too shy. I sit in the back, crying or not I go unnoticed.

I was sexually and physically abused when I was younger. Its hard now, I don't know what to do. There are so many lies, no one can be trusted. I'm starting to hate the world.The only reason I am not dead yet is because I'm afraid of hell.

Should I go on antidepressents? Please be serious, though I bet some of you will be mean, always someone like that.

I am always, always the last one picked for a team during P.E. I have bad hand-eye coordination, it's hard for me to pick up instructions that relates to anything physical, and my body is very week. Is there any way to do good during gym class because my grade is low in this class?

Yes, I'm asking if anyone knows at least some of their own genomic DNA sequence and thus genotype at one or more gene loci, and if so, how interesting was it to learn? Was it surprising? Did it change how you live in any way? Do you recommend that others learn about their own genotypes?

i have read everywhere that its only contracted by contaminated surfaces or through the infected person coughing or vomiting or sneezing. But in our local news report they say "Spread by air, water and personal contact, noroviruses are highly contagious and can survive in food, water and the environment for long periods."
Spreads by air? But they arent like colds they arent airborne? or so i read??? Is that true????

Breakfast: 1 1/2 poptarts or a granola bar

Lunch: snack size bag of pretzels & water

Dinner: Small piece of chicken, or small bowl of top-ramen like noodles

Will my stomach eventually shrink so I don't get hungry so often on a diet like this?

I am in a bit of a situation that I don't know how to deal with and its bugging me as I have nobody to talk to about it. I have social anxiety and I see a councillor that my gp referred me to to help me through some of the problems I have had.
I was told I should start taking anti depressants from my gp but I turned them down and I am now refretting it.
My problem is I don't know how to distinguish depression from unhappiness, I feel discontent more or less all of the time and I have issues with self esteem and confidence. I have also started having thoughts that make me cry a lot, I lye in bed crying quite a lot and think about losing people I love. I wake up and I spend most days feeling negatively about things and I am at university which makes it harder as social anxiety puts huge limitations on me.

My real question is, how do I know whether I should take the anti-depressants or not? I don't know if what I am feeling is really depression or just all in my head. I am confused?

Alright so I'm 14, 130 pounds, 5,8. I havn't eaten in five days going on six. I want to know how much longer must I starve myself to see results? I've been drinking water, maybe a glass a day. Just tell me approx. how many days please. I don't wanna hear about "You'll gain it back, you'll die, etc." I just need an answer please. And also after my fasting, I'm going to eat 250 - 500 calories a day from then on. Will it work? Someone help me please I really need it. And thank you so much if you do. It's appreciated! :)

I am 17 years old and about 7 months ago my doctor told me i was anemic and she was not sure why! I eat the right way and i don't have heavy periods! She has checked my blood several times over the past months and each time my hemoglobin level has gotten worse! And i feel a lot more tired then usual! She has also checked to see if there was blood in my stool but there was not! I am getting really scared now because i don't know what is going to happen next! What could be wrong.... what could be causing my anemia! I take a large amount of iron twice a day but it has not improved anything! WHat other types of tests do you think my doctor will do in order to solve my problem! My friends said she will probelly do a bone marrow biopsy to see if i have cancer....... is this true and do you really think that i could have cancer!!!!
