I've been a chain smoker for 3-4 years. I need to stop and I'm only 22. My fiance is going to quit too, because we live in the same house and if 1 can't smoke.. neither can the other.

Any advice, suggestions etc? Cold turkey or what? This saturday might be a good day to do it because I'll be in a plane or airport for 8 hours.

I'm 39 and have never had a seizure before, but my head felt strange before I went to bed. (kind of like a hangover after a severe headache) My husband said I started having severe jerking type motions and my eyes were half open and I was totally unresponsive. (I have no recollection of this at all) It lasted maybe about a minute or so then it stopped. Today My whole body hurts like I have been in a car wreck and my eyes feel like they are sinking into my head. I'm so tired I can barely stand to be on the computer typing this.
What can cause this and should I expect this to happen again?
Is it normal to feel this way after a seizure?
I must admit I'm very nervous about this....

I did have meningitis 6 months ago. (really thought I was going to die before I got over that) Not sure if that could be related or not....???

I am going for a blood test tomorrow, there is no specific reason, I just got my mom to call the clinic and make a app. to get one because I wanted to to know blood type. But will it pick up weed, and if so they don't have a right to tell my mother right? Because I'm not in danger of death or anything.

I am 16 years old, not sexually active, and considering getting the cervical cancer vaccine. My mom and I have talked about it, and she's talked to her gyno, and we all think it's a good idea to get it. Just wondering, for those who have already taken it, do you have any opinions on it? Thanks for the input!

My mother is on Seroquel & Zanex. She has extreme insomnia. She has been taking this combo for 5 + yrs now. She wants to stop taking all meds but can't seem to find a solution to the sleep problem. At her last appointment the doctor wanted to take her off the zanex & increase her seroquel. The seroquel is the one that worries me. I've been hearing a lot of bad things about it. When my mom brought up the risks of the seroquel to the doctor she said "that's all a bunch of hoey to scare people". I have researched & there seems to be a HUGE risk associated with this drug and diabetes. Should a doctor be dismissing health risks like this? Why would she?

I posted this in weddings as well, not sure which category was best....
My fiancee and I are getting married on 10/20, and over the course of the last year, his mother has been battling cervical cancer. We thought she was in the clear early in the year, so we got everything planned. A couple months ago we were given the bad news: it spread viciously (stage IVb) and we're not sure how long she has. She's deteriorating every day and might not be able to attend. We nixed the idea of moving it up, we don't want her to think we're "rushing" her or showing any signs of something being wrong. We will do our best to carry on no matter what the circumstances. If she is still here we'll visit her and have a "mock" ceremony after the church and before the reception. If she's not with us, we'll try to do our best to continue with our plans.
I'm just wondering has anyone had to go through this before, with a parent? How did you cope with it? We're you able to go through with it?

Ok well I got sick on Thursday meaning a cold. I had sniffs runny nose all that. there was some mucus in my throat. than three days later my throat hurt and I started to cough. Now I don't feel that sick anymore like no nose problem but I''m coughing and it feels like theres still mucus in my throat. Do I have TB? Or is the mucus just trying to leave the body?

PS I got a TB shot when younger
