I have this uncontrollable itch inside my head, my eyes are always red and I am constantly getiing sinus infections only on the right side. My vision has started to diminish as well. I also swell up on the right side. On a secondary note my legs below the knee are extremely dry and I get red patches.

This is for mood-stablizing not seizures. I suffer from anxiety and depression. I have tried several meds. I'm allergic to alot of them. I can't call the doctor every other day and I just can't tell if this stuff is working. My nerves are more shot than they've ever been. I don't know if it's from med or what. I'm not taking anything else w/ it. I'd love to be able to enjoy my children more but right now they just aggrivate me. I've taken Xanax and it doesn't do it for me. I just can't calm down. I think I'm beginning to get insomnia again which just adds fuel to the fire. Any GOOD suggestions that I haven't heard? Even if it's a long, drawn-out, dramatic suggestion, I'd love to hear it. Try to suggest something that won't make my sex life any worse.

I have a ganglion cyst on my left wrist, and it recently started annoying me more and more. I have had it for about 5 months, and I think i am going to get it removed. I was wondering if anyone has had a ganglion cyst on their wrist. . . and if they got it removed . . was it pretty simple.. . . like were u able to go home and not be in pain that day?? Also, did it scar a lot?? did anyone's cyst come back after it was removed?? any experience/advice would help :)

I had kidney stones about 8 years ago-pain was so bad that even clothing or a sheet touching me sent a horrific pain through me. I had a miscarriage last year with horrible pain-felt like a knife was cutting me open & being run back and forth in my front & back. Is the post surgery pain as bad as a kidney stone or miscarriage pain?

The GB attack that caused me to go to the ER felt like I was severly bloated & someone was grabbing my GB & twisting and turning it about. I couldn't sit or lay comfortablly & was vomiting all nite.

I'm just trying to gauge what kind of pain I will be in the first few days. I don't want to be on pain killers if they make me sleep as I have really bad nightmares with pain killers. Also I'm scared of baaaaad pain.

I had lupus for 4 years, and my medical bills are covered by my current company insurance. If I change job in the future, will my lupus still be covered by the new company's insurance?

for so long chocolate was bad for us and now they say it is good brain food. I sure hope no one ever figures out something good about smoking cigaretts.

Do you feel better now about your cocolate habit??

My eyelids are often a bit swollen. This is probably due to chronic allergies (dust, pollen, etc.), but sometimes due to crying the night before. Is there anything I can do to fix this cosmetic problem? I've tried antihistamines and iced gel packs to no avail.

Im 12. I think i have a floater in my eye.
One day when i was walking home from school i saw a little thing that was floating....
It was like a cell or something.. it was just floating.
I didn't know what the heck it was.
I did a little research and found out it was a floater.
Now, i can't seem to see it anymore.

Did it go away?
I can't see it anymore.. its strange..

My grandfather has been taking Vytorin, but like many cholesterol medications he has side effects including pain and weakness in his legs. His doctors tell him they will all cause that. He is very frustrated with the difficulty he has with walking. Are there any prescription meds that won't have this side effect or herbal remedies known to help?
