I've had trouble with insomnia for years. I tried this stuff called Melatonin and it really did work well for me. I was taking 3 mg. and I cleared this through my doctor who said that I could take 3-6 mg and that it was safe. Another doctor found that I was taking this and they said that it was not safe - in that if you keep taking it that your body won't be making it or something if you keep taking it. So is it safe, and how much is safe. I tried taking 5HTP per their suggestion and it has not worked well.
My doctor said Valerian was not safe, and I only tried it once, and I was more energized than relaxed from taking it.
My question - is what is the root cause of insomnia? I've tried all kinds of things - lavender, herbal teas, etc. lot more exercise. I get a minimum of 30 minutes exercise a day and most days I get 60 and I still don't sleep well now. I was sleeping well taking the melatonin. ideas? thanks A.M. is a great forum thanks everyone!

Have been diagnosed with panic attacks and anxiety. Am on Valium (short term) and Prozac.

Many of the symptoms are better ie. cold sweats, palpitations, being unable to go into shops etc. Have had physical conditions ruled out,

But, when I wake up I seem to have had horrible dreams night before and wake to pins and needles in my arms. Any ideas help would be appreciated,

Thank you!

Ive had a CONSTANT bloated stomach for almost 3 months now and Im not sure what it is.

I heard that being on antibiotics can cause this, I was on them for 6 months last year but I only started getting the bloatedness three months ago. Ive also had a few other strange symptoms which isnt normal for me, my periods changed 2 months ago, last month they were very light followed with DARK brown discharge and this month it was heavy followed with pink then brown discharge.

Ive been crying a hell of alot, almost every night - Im not depressed or stressed.

Ive also been experiencing migraines. Im not sure if all these are linked in any way but I thought Id list them anyway incase anybody knows.

my GP said I could be pregnant so, I took 3 preg tests last month and they all came back negative but before that he said I could have extra acid in my stomach and gave me medicine but its not helping. any ideas what this could be?

I posted earlier about wishing to delay my period a few days and got several good answers including a couple about using BC pills to delay my period. To continue my question... my BC pill dispenser is divided into four parts.

The white pills have 0.180 mg norgestimate and 0.025mg ethinyl estradiol.
Light blue pills have 0.215mg norgestimate with 0.025mg ethinyl estradiol.
Dark blue pills have 0.250mg norgestimate with 0.025mg ethinyl estradiol.
And of course the green sugar placebo pills.

Which pill is best for countering the onset of my period? Which should I take when my current pack runs out? Do i just start from the beginning of the new pack? Or will the higher dosage pills of norgestimate work better?

Hi, this is my fourth day of fasting, I wake up at 4am, drink some water (cannot stomach the food that early in the morning) and then eat again at 7.30pm. My calorie consumption in this one meal sitting in approx 1000 and I finish eating by 8pm and don't eat again, going to sleep at 12. Normally, if I ate this little, I can tell the next day from my stomach that I have lost weight but this time there is no difference. I am aware my body must have gone into 'starvation mode' but I cannot increase my cals for fear of being sick. Is there anything I can do to aid the weight loss? Can't go to the gym to do cardio because I can't drink water due to the fast. Will walking for aout 40 mins after eating aid the weight loss or would I have to do cardio and really sweat it out?
