I am 15. I have Marfans syndrome and a problem with the cusps around my aorta. (The cusps seem to be growing) Are there any pre-cautions that I should take to ensure a better shot to live longer?

I am a ballet dancer, 15 years old, 5'5 and 97 pounds. For the last month or so I have been cutting out my carbs, such as bread and pasta, fat, and I started to not eat any meat. I used to weight 108 and I felt fat. I also do not eat any sweets at all, and I have begun to get terrified of high fat foods or foods with sugar in them. Many people say I look to skinny, but when I think about it, I feel fat still. I am scared of gaining any weight back because then my self esteem will lower drastically. What do you think? Am I too skinny or am I fine?

I was taking Yasmin for about 2-1/2 years. I started having some problems with muscle twitching, so my nurologist suggested that I think about any medication I started taking when the symptoms started. That was yasmin. So I asked my gyn to switch me. She put me on Loestrin 24. I hated it. I had breakthrough bleeding all the time. I was on it for two months and switched to Femcon fe. The first month was good, but now that I am half way through my third month, I have breakthrough bleeding and mild cramps almost every day. Also - my hair is getting very, very thin. I'm freaking out. My gp and gyn keep telling me not to worry and to stay on the pill through the 4th month. I don't know what to do. I'm afraid to stay on it but I'm afraid if I get off of it, it will casue another hormone change and my hair loss will get worse or take even longer to correct itself. Please help. Do I stay on it or stop taking it.

The condition is often worst after a meal. If I walk for few minutes, the chest tightens up, get pain up both arms and I have to stop or sit for few minutes. Afraid to ask the doctor. How bad is this situation. Note: some days, I am just fine and can walk for hours and climb stairs with no problem.

My boyfriend is on 1 150mg a day of effexor and 3 250mg of depakote (for depression and bipolar tendencies) they say he has a "chemical imbalance". I think the long term effects of this are going to be bad, especially since no one knows what they will be because effexor has only been around for a couple years. He was slowly taken his own doseing down because he is fine. He wants to go off completely but we need more information. What is a natural alternative to these pills and what are some websites that could give more information??

Lately I have been having uncontrolable movments in my arms and neck.
It's like huge jurking motions which give my neck horible cramps.
The other day while this took place I hit a person in the face with my spazzum.
He says he is going to come stab me twice in the heart, once in the face and skin me for warm leather pants.
He knows where I live.
I also do not have a lock for my door.
Because I am so poor.
What should I do?
I'm seriously getting very scared.

This morning my right eye was red but I didn't think anything of it so, I put my contacts in as usual. I went to school and about five hours later, 4 people told me my eye was red. so at lunch time I went to the school nurse and she sent me home. I have a appointment tomorrow with the eye doctor. but when I got home I took out my contacts and my eyes are still red. they are very sensitive to the light, they burn, and they are watery. is this normal?
