I asked a similar question a few days ago, but never got a good answer... for people who have GAD, what are your symptoms, physically/mentally? I'm sure that I have GAD, but haven't been to the Doc yet. I've told my mom about it, and she said when I go to get my shots that she would tell the doctor about it, but I just want to know if I have similar symptoms to people that actually have it.

I am constantly worrying, usually it's something about my health. When I'm not worrying, I can't stop. I try to distract myself, but it doesn't work. If I'm not worrying, I know that it's only temporary. Sometimes I get nauseous, my heart races, I start shaking, etc. I use the bathroom constantly, even when I don't have to go. I feel tense alot of the time, and I'm always tired.

I've tried different things in the past to help. Like praying, writing down my worries, taking deep breaths. It helps a little, but not much. Does it sound like I have it?

My contacts recently began getting blurry in the afternoons, and sometimes they burn. I have Refresh rewetting drops for contacts, which I use-but it does not help one bit!!! I wear Focus Night and Day lenses, which I never sleep in. Even when I take them out and rinse them with solution, when I put them back in they still fog. What is the deal?!?! This is so annoying.

I know this probably sounds funny to ask, but I was browsing through some books at the medical library, and when it showed the anatomy of the woman's nipple, each book seemed to show multiple outlets for each nipple. If you're just guessing, then let me know, because I want to know the real answer.

first off i am a 27 year old male. about two months ago i noticed very small white zit like bumps in my pubic region. now i work around hardwood like red oak and stuff and thought it was just an irratation, but i have been fired for 4 weeks now. they do not itch, hurt or anything all i have noticed is that when i pop one it will bleed more than an average small hole will. they group together only in my pubic region not on my penis or scrootem, and i have none on my butt just in my pubic region. i shower daily and i am a very clean person. the last time i had sex was 5 month ago and was with a woman that i have been with for 4 years. now i am with a new girl that i like alot and i have been pushing off sex because i do not know what i have or what it is

I'm 26, no family history of polyps or colon cancer but I have irregular bowel habits from having flat/thin stools to diarrhea (diarrhea if I eat something greasy or spicy). I went to see 3 gastroentergolists to get an opinion:

Dr 1: Told me to change my diet into chicken and vegetables, take laxatives in combination with fiber supplements to clean out the bowel and have normal stools. Said colonoscopy not needed because I'm too young to have polyps or colon cancer

Dr 2: said I have Irritable Bowel Syndrome, colonoscopy is out of the question and told me to take fiber supplements

Dr 3: wants to do a colonoscopy to be on the safe side although he thinks it will come out negative anyways.

Should i try the fiber diet change, lose weight (overweight) and see if my stool will return back to normal? Or should I just go for the colonoscopy? I'm just afraid insurance won't cover my colonoscopy because of my age and risk% THanks!

im 30 now, ive had one hell of a past, abuse bullying...sexual abuse....assaults and injuries my street gangs....i was bullied throughout high school.
all this happened to me growing up....i never got an education, never been employed...never formed friendships or relationships with people...dropped out of high school..
spent 18 months in a mental hospital.
know i feel left behind in life....uncared about, isolated and alone...know one to turn to.
i feel bad and guilty because of my past....i used to have rage outbursts in public, lash out...shout..have anger outburst...it caused people to look and laugh or be attacked by people....im ashamed of this past..
before i went in hospital, i exaggerated the problems i had grossly, made myself out to be a monster so they would pay attention to my needs and i would get the help and treatment i wasnt getting in the community...i said horrific things & lied thinking it would get me help.....not thinking at the time it would go in

I've had this baby tooth for a very long time (I'm 22), it's actually just gotten pretty loose in the past couple of months. So basically I have my adult tooth which grew in at an angle pushing against the baby tooth. Even the side of the baby tooth has worn away to fit against the adult one.

My question was, is it possible for the dentist to numb the gum, pull the baby tooth out and somehow pull the adult tooth into place where the baby tooth was? I thought it shouldn't be too difficult considering that the adult and baby tooth are pretty close together since they're touching. Is there a way to do it, any idea how much it could cost? I don't have insurance so I'll have to make payments. Those are the only two teeth that are messed up.

Did you know


that shoddy science ran amok at this conference in 1984 ?

MANY scientists at the conference spoke up about the INCONCLUSIVE cholesterol evidence .

This shady conference led way to the fraudulent NCEP .
Did you know that 6 of the 14 National Cholesterol Education Committee has reveived financial support from multiple pharmacuetical companies INCUDING DR. SCOTT GRUNDY THE COMMITTEE HEAD

Here is an exerpt

"Dr. Grundy has reciebved honoraria from Merck, Pfrizer, Sanyo, Bayer, and Bristol Meyers Squibb"


If you don't believe me just look it up here:

From the Excecutive Summary of the Third report of thr National Cholesterol Education program Expert Panel On Detection Evaluation and Treatment of High Blood Cholesterol in Adults (Adult Treatment Panel III) Journal of the American Medical Association May 16, 2001: (19) 2486-2497



Stop being conned about cholesterol and confront yuor doctors. They have alot of explaining to do

I have problems with my muscles tightening up and sometimes tearing. I've had my neck,back,ribs and even my shoulders pop out of place because of my muscles. I've been to the doctors and been tested for arthritis and a few other things but they can't seem to figure out what it is.I'm in constant and terrible pain 24/7 and all the drugs they've given me for pain either leave me sick or completely out of it. If anybody knows of something that causes severe muscle cramping over a long period of time please let me know so I can continue to research and hopefully find what the doctors can't.
Thank you

I'm starting to get acne problems and I'm shopping for spot treatment products. I know one way to go is benzoyl peroxide, but I don't like the fact that it may lead to cancer. Then there's salicylic acid. I haven't heard anything too bad about it, but I'm wondering if you have. I know it can cause drying, but are there any DANGEROUS things I should worry about? What kinds of skin types does it work best with? Thanks.
