Most doctors say that there's nothing they can do about excessive sweating due to innately hypersensitive/hyeractive sweat gland. I think they mean it within the limits of medications.
I'd like to know if there's a surgical help for excessive sweating? I heard that surgery for this kind of problem has not so funny side-effects, and there's no going back if the surgery goes wrong because nerves that control sweat glands are surgically cut.
Or is there alterative medicine?
I am a Chinese male in early 30s.
Any doctors or person out there who know about this kind of issue?

I have been losing sleep for a while.
Now my right eye is quite puffy, and it hurts like its a bruise. Some told me to put warm tea bags on it, others said put cold packs on it. What should I do?

My eyes water like crazy. It's mostly set off by things that would normally cause people's eyes to water, but in lighter conditions (eg, wind makes your eyes water, but with mine, a slight breeze sets them off). Same with the sun, smoke, laughter etc. It's happens a lot when I'm driving (which is quite dangerous as I can't see!) One eye seems to do it more than the other. It's not eye strain coz I can sit at a PC all day without crying! Sometimes they water at random... any ideas?

A couple months ago I was diagnosed with GERD. It's killing me. They prescribed me pepcid. Which I am taking twice a day. Plus I have taken every form of zantac and tums. I have even changed my diet to eliminating anything that creates heartburn. I got a sample menu online so I know everything has been eliminate. Nothing is helping. If I lay down, I can use a heating pad, which works as long as I'm laying down using it. Once I get up I'm still in pain. Also burping has been helping. But I have to gulp down water so I can burp, because I don't have the need to do so. I called the doctor, but can't get in for another 2 weeks. And the nurse won't answer any of my questions. I really need some help, as this is making it really hard for me to eat, drink, sleep or even breathe..

Okay, I have had a wonderful life up untill about 3 months ago.
After summer camp My great grandma died and I got pretty upset, then my friend started talking about her weight and I realized that I was heavier than her and she's a year older than me so I thought I should go on a diet.
It went wrong.
I heard about pro ana from teen vouge and I looked up and then went pro ana.
I stopped eating a ton and I even went without food for 2 days.
Then I decided to stop cause I thought my parents would take me out of dance.
Then I got more upset, ate a ton and gained 4 pounds.
I found myself over the toilet puking it all up.
Then I grabbed a knife and started cutting myself.
Can someone tell me If I have depression or something?

I have an awful pain in my right lower abdomen and doctors have ruled out appendicitis and ovarian cysts and also don't believe it has to do with my gallbladder, but are stumped. I have an appointment to go see a gastroenterologist on Monday, but I was wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar.

I have hypothroidism. About 3 times a week, I drink Rockstar or Monster energy drink. this is usually on the days when I haven't had much sleep. Well, the other day my tsh level went up. So, now I am changing from Levothyroxin 150mcg to 175mcg. A friend at work said that I need to stay away from the energy drinks because they are not good for me. Aren't they just high caffiene content drinks?
