My wife has had cronic pain and has been on narcitic pain killers for 3 years.She recently went to a Dr. appointment for our daughter at a diiferent dr. than hers. My daughters dr. noticed that my wife was very tired as she had not been sleeping very well at all. He asked about how she was sleeping and ended up prescribing what turned out to be generic valume. My wife was not going to fill the script but I saw it on the kitchen table and thought I was doing her a favor by getting it filled for her.
Long story short when I filled it the pharmacy called her dr. ( the dr. that she has been going to for years and treats her pain and anxiety and PTSD). Her Dr. considered it a breach of contract that she got a narcotic from another dr. so she has dropped her as a patient. WE have 30 days to find my wife a new Dr. and it's all my fault. Please if you have been in the same situation What did you do?

My ankly is still swollen and i injured it on the 2nd of july. i've been going to physio since the end of july and the swelling is still the same size, my physiotherapist just started accupuncture and it feels great at the time, but the swelling comes back. my mri showed that i have partially torn two ligaments and split a tendon, the radiologist also said that i have tenosynovitis. I have a fibergalss brace and it's fine when i have it on but why wouldn't the swelling have gone down. I can walk without the brace, it doesnt' hurt so much anymore unless i am resting my foot on its side.

any ideas about why or what i should do. i go for a follow up on the 24th of September and i just don't know what to ask the dr.

I simply don't understand how individuals accomplish this outside of awesome genetics. I got my bodyfat down to 9% this past summer but I sacrificed muscle mass in the process. How can I build muscle while retaining a low bodyfat percentage?

I brush twice a day and floss but they hurt like hell when I do. I am backpacking right now and won't be back in the USA till end of October. Is there anything I can do in the mean time to at least make them not get worse so I can go to a dentist when I get back?

My boyfriend has arthitis in his back and sciatica and is always in pain. The doctor gave him loratabs and is suppose to take 1 every 4-6 hours. He's been on them for a few months now and he says that if he doesn't take them his whole body feels like crap. He wants to stop taking them but everytime he tries he gets horrible withdraws from them and starts taking them again just to get rid of the crappy feeling. I know no matter what he's going to have withdraws but is there anything I can do to make it not so rough on him?

I'm only Twenty, and my short term memory is getting worse. Hell, even my long term is suffering. What the hell is going on? I rarely drink, I don't use drugs, illegal, prescribed or over-the-counter; My work is suffering, my relationships with my friends and family are going down hill; what the hell?

My 13 year old has been sick with a "cold" since Tuesday. Here have been her symptoms.
Tuesday: Sore throat, sniffles
Wednesday: Bad Stufffy Nose
Thursday: Kinda Stuffy Nose
Today: Kinda stuffy nose, but very hoarse voice all of a sudden.

Just as it seems she's getting better, her voice completely changes. Is it something else? If it is a cold, why did her voice change? Thanks. :)

I looked it up online and it sounds A LOT like me. I even told my gram once that I couldn't eat cause I was thinking of spit ( Anyways...
I touch every button I see, step on every crack, read/watch things that I know I understand over and over, and check things over and over and overrr, even though I don't want to, I NEED to. I also have bad thoughts....like somebody will ask me to do something and I'll be like nooo then I'll think like...what if my dad dies? Then I HAVE to do whatever I'm asked. And I say things in my head that I don't wanna say. Like I'll think like "If there's a ghost in here take over me" then I'll think "NOO! NO! Why'd I say that?!" and I'll also say I hate people in my head for no reason.
To top that off, I get panic attacks like crazy. And sometimes I can't swallow but everyone understands/knows that. I can't spell what it's called, anxitey...I think that's spelled wrong but you know.
I want help, I NEEEED it.

I've experimented with a lot of martial arts, my most recent being Capoeira and, because the gymnastic movements put a lot of strain on my wrists, I've been out of commission for several months now.

I'd like to go back to Capoeira again some day, but not until my wrist has healed and strengthened.

The problem is that I'm studying to be a graphic designer, so I do a lot of typing and computer-based work, which doesn't help with a wrist injury.

Can anyone, preferably people with backgrounds in fitness, personal training or sports injuries, put forward any suggestions for first repairing and then strengthening my wrist muscles?

i was diagnosed with fibromyalgia 9 years ago and i am suffering from severe depression and i want to die. i have a major dependency issue where i cant be alone and i just constantly ask people for help or a cure over and over again. my best friend of 8 years told me he could take no more of me cos im messing him up

Im incapable of friends right now cos all i wanna do is talk about my problems all the time (literally for hours for answers or help and then convince them that i have to kill myself.) In truth i have no interest in what's going on for them and just feel jealous when they talk about their lives. i am a selfish horrible person - i truly dont feel like i care about anything or anyone else it is like i am incapable of feeling. Individually each one is leaving my life as they cant deal with the pressure of me and them leaving proves how crap i am . My parents i live with are going away next week and i know that will be the final straw.

I am completly alone and have 2 die
