Health - 14 November 2007

I have been a sleep walker for a long time. I get up in the nite and mess around in the bathroom. Walk around the house and actually lately I have been pretty busy at nite. I sometimes wake up in the middle of my activites, and sometimes I wake up and realize I did something stupid.
One of the doctors I work with believes I may have sleep apnea because he says I "look" like someone with sleep apnea. He says he can see it in my neck area. I can see my adams apple and granted since I am 43, my cheeks have gotten fat, but I would not consider my neck overly fat.
He says sleep apnea is a major cause of sleep walking in adults and he believes I should go for a sleep study. I have never been able to sleep in strange places. I usually sleep about 7 or sometimes 6 hours a nite. I am a pretty uptight personality.
Do you know anything about this? I am a nurse, but never really have dealt with this condition and would like some information. Its really freaking me out.

For those people who don't want to read my life story. The question is : I can only lift the bar, how should i workout reps and sets to catch up to my friends who go 100+ without getting huge.


ok, so i signed up for this gym with a bunch of friends, and let me just tell you. I AM WEAK! they were benching like 130's and stuff, and when I tried I struggled and shook by trying to lift the bar!!! the bar!!!! well my friends don't really care, but i do. it hurts my pride, and it saddens me. So i plan on going to the gym alittle more often than them, and i wish to ask how do you start benching? How many reps and sets and all that jazz. I want to catch up to them. Also I wanna do it in a way so that i don't get that huge. I actually don't want to get huge, i just want to get stronger.

I started taking Zoloft in January because I was diagnosed with panic disorder. They started me out on 50mg and gradually moved me up to 150mg. I am still taking the 150mg a day and it has been working wonders for my panic disorder. the problem is that i went from being about 120lbs to being in the 150's. This is driving me nuts! I started a diet of decreasing my calorie intake and I have been walking for at least a half hour everyday. I am still not losing weight. If anything I'm gaining it. I have never weighed this much in my life and I'm getting married in July. I really want to look good for my wedding so i need to lose weight. I've heard that Zoloft causes weight gain and I think this is my problem. I'm scared to go off of the Zoloft because of my panic attacks but I feel like I'm getting depressed from gaining so much weight. I also heard that Zoloft is very hard to stop taking. Does anyone have any suggestions or comments on my situation. Any help would be great! Thanks!

Will the pharmacy have a record of a prescription I had a couple of years ago? I don't want to have to go to my doctors office and pay for a copy of my medical records just for one prescription name.

BTW I no longer have medical insurance so I can't go back to the doctor, so I'm just gonna get the medicine from Mexico.

Please help. I know you can't get the exact right weight with just height and age, but as much as you can. I need a zone. Like 120-150 or something like that.

I tried to refill my perscription but it would not let me cause it was too soon to fill and by the directions given by my doctor. I took my last bit of medicine Sunday. I called him 1st thing monday morning saying I was out and I needed him to call it in since it would not refill it because of whatever. It has been 2 days and since I have no had the medicine it throws me off and I have had a migraine all day today no matter how much tylenol I take and gets to the point where I throw up. I called my local pharmacy and told them of my situation and they saw who my doctor was and was just like yea he never calls bak. They were nice enough to give me 3 days worth of pills. If he doesn't call me back tomorrow I am going to leave him another message....but is there a way where like I could get his a$$ in trouble cause it should not take a doctor 3 days to return a call no matter how buzy they are. I pay him to treat my depression! Much help appreciate thanks!

saliva thing I was wondering whether has damage my teeth or not? I am now 14 and since then when I was six I tripped and fell on cement. My teeth went back and had to be pulled forward. So I was wondering cos I now at 14 have dents in two front teeth although you can't really see it you can feel it well I can. so is this cos due to the dentist pulling it forward or is it because I used to scrape my teeth. Any dentist out there help please?

My Friend is using Meliane for the first time, she is having a bit of confusion regarding it sdosage.
Does she start her first tablet on the 1st day of menstrual period and then continue taking tablets throughout the
period days. when the 1st pack finishes then she takes 7 days tab-free break?
OR
She takes her 1st tablet on the 1st day of her menstrual period and then gives a 7 days
tab-free break and after that takes the pills daily when her period ends?
Kindly advice which of these is ideal dosage requirement, as she'll be using meliane
for the 1st time.Thank You to all who answer.
