Right now i'm 21, male.. and i'm having "severe headaches on a regular basis" ...a couple years ago i would never get headaches.
I have sharp chest pains, and my jaws hurt alot, i don't know if its
a dental problem, but my mother has diabetes and had gum disease, and my father has prostate cancer and diabetes..
I typically, feel dizzy and have blurry vision no matter how much i eat, and my eye doctor told me "my vision delined too rapidly between appointments and i might want to check my blood for diabetes" ..after two regular diagnostic blood tests doctors didn't find anything wrong...

I don't know where i should go next

Her memories of the incidents frequently are "triggered" and bring with them a flood of anger and pain, often at times when she is not in a safe place. Can you please outline some steps to help her cope with the memories and pain? How can she recover?

She experiences Post Traumatic Stress Disorder:

1. Experiencing the catastrophic, traumatic event again and again.

2. Intrusive memories or images associated with the event spontaneously "triggered" and evoke panic, terror, fearfulness, grief, or anger. Including daytime fantasies, nightmares, or flashbacks.

3. Avoidance, or numbing attempts to keep from being triggered by avoiding certain people, places, or things to block out the unwanted images and feelings.

4. Increased arousal. Those with PTSC have a fear of being re-traumatized, with feelings of anxiety, panic, hypervigilance, or paranoia!

5. Decreased functioning. Symptoms are significant, causing a decrease in the person's ability to function in relations.

Does anyone have this or could give me some info on this(?) I keep getting this rash right where the waistband of underwear usually is. I used to think I was allergic to metals (buttons, belt buckles etc) but now I think it could be this. Thanks for your help. Also looking for info on tomato allergies.

Writing your name on every page in the little name space given at the top of the page in a workbook. I only need to write it once, on the first page, or get a sticker and write my name on it. I always write my name in every single page in my notebooks. Some of my teachers find it weird. I guess it's an old habit. Again, it's totally unncessary. I onyl ever need to write it once. What are your opinions? Me, I think I'm just strange.

My fiance recently began visiting a psychologist. He has only been to 3 or 4 appointments so far. His psychologist hasn't diagnosed him with anything for sure yet, but first seemed to think he was bipolar and had an anxiety disorder. Now, she believes that he may have ADHD. However, neither of her possible diagnosis sounds very accurate to me. Is it reasonable for her to assess him with such disorders when she sees him for only a hour 2 days a month? I know I'm not a certified practitioner, but I am familiar with bipolar and ADHD disorders and symptoms. I'm sure some psychologists really help people, but a lot of times I feel they may intentionally over diagnosis patients for the money. I don't believe either of these disorders apply to my fiance as I am familiar with his behavior. I have been with him for 2 years, and none of the symptoms relate to any problems he has. I do believe he has a type of anxiety problem, but the rest of her suggestions seem like garbage to me. Am I overreacting or has anyone else been in a situation where they felt the doctor was misdiagnosing? Not only this, but it is affecting the way he feels about himself. I think it may be making him worse! Please help!

My husband and i have stopped masturbating and are trying to focus on how god intended the marriage relationship to be. We are both very sincere about this and have prayed about it and talked to others about it. Any suggestions on other ways of succeeding and anyone who has succeeded it doing so?

i was sick last night and my sister had to work so she called her boyfriend over to keep an eye on me while she was at work. I took 3 Aleve's like a dummy and when i woke up this morning I was sore in my anal and vaginal area.
Is it possible that he did something to me or am I just being a drama queen as usual.?!.?!.?!.

I have chronic sinus disease and no medical insurance. This year has been the worse for me. I went to the doctor back in sept. for an infection but ever since then I have had dizziness, I finally went back and she said I had fluid in my ears and put me on an antibotic, vermist spray, and a steriroid to reduce inflamation. I do feel tons better but the dizziness bothers me and just hinders me in everyday activities. I am hoping a freeze comes soon! Is there anything I can do to reduce or stop the dizziness? I take meclazine but it doesn't help much.
Oh, I also take singular and claritin. I don't do well with decongestints. Any suggestions?

I suffer from bipolar and depression. I have been to therapy for five years and my therapist and psychiatrist released me. I guess they have no hope for me either. I lash out all the time. I try so-so hard to control it, but it doesn't help all of the time. I know some of the triggers but I live with them and I can't really leave. About six months ago my boy friend and I, well I guess you could say inherited his two grandkids. They are 2 and 5. I feel trapped, they have been through so much that I don't feel like I can leave. We're all they have.

I am 22 years old male. I have been experiencing burning feeling in my urethra for the past 2 years sometimes after having sex, especially if I have sex on a half-full to a full bladder. Another time I experience the same symptoms, is when I get very sexually aroused with my girl but we end up not having sex, then an hour later after I would go to bed, I would wake up very soon with a burning feeling, I would go to the bathroom to empty my bladder and the burning feeling would be stronger, especially if I lie down I can really feel it. In both situations it lasts for about 30 minutes and it helps if I drink plenty of water while the pain is present.
It does help if I empty my bladder before sex but it does not help with the sexually aroused story. (I always use condom).

Can someone please explain me if this is normal? Or is this a sign of some serious problems? It causes a big discomfort in my sex life.

There wasnt a lot of it. There was none in the urine but when I wiped there was some...and it isn't time for my period...I made sure it wasn't coming from my vagina (sorry to be so gross!). And it isn't cramping either. It's worse than cramping! The lower part of my tummy hurts horribly. Like the very front part of it. This is really weird but when I pee I usually lean forward, and I can't anymore because it makes the front part of my tummy hurt so bad that I can't stand it. What is wrong with me? What is this all about? My mom used to get kidney stones all the time, could this be it? My husband has the car so I can't drive to the ER....but I want to go when he gets home. Please no rude comments, I just want to know what the hell is going on! Thank you!

Inspired by a discussion on one of my message boards. What is the weirdest thing that a woman has asked you, as a gynecologist, to remove from her vagina? I've heard condoms are common but I've been told you guys sometimes find the unfathomable.
