ok, so i have a lisp, and it's been bothering me for as long as i can remember. the kind of lisp i have involves trouble producing an "S" sound (as in sock, sandal, suitcase, etc) but not "sh" words like shoe, shine, etc. i say anything w/ that "S" sound through my nose, which is why it sounds terrible. actually its been sounding better over the years (i'm 19 now), but i get comments on it every so often. 2 different speech therapists that i had from 1st through 6th grade didn't help at all and only made it worse, as my teachers, parents, and myself could see that they we're just trying to replace it by making me talk w/ a different lisp! so is there anything i can do about it, because it's probably a direct cause of not having any self esteem or friends in college... thanks in advance!

How long should I expect him to live at this rate? He had total hepatic system/ liver failure 2 years ago this Oct - barely lived - in Hosp 16 days.Last October he had a siezure from withdrawal - he started drinking 24 beers every 2 wks - that I know about - He should not drink at all but says he isn't him if he can't have a beer. I am beside myself finding he is stashing beer in the trunk of his car, & other really cute places around the house. HELP!! I am deeply hurt seeing him commit suicide this way...he does not really want to live anymore since he can't do what he used to...where we live there is little or no support at all, our kids have grown & his boys are in their own worlds. I have been with him throughout this ordeal & it's been a really rough ride for us both. I love him & won't leave him, but his Dr.Jeckle & Mr.Hyde personality is tearing me apart & he remembers only what he wants to remember. He is on blood pressure/2 dif diuretic meds & pantaloc.Lorazapam too

I've had battles with gout off and on for a couple of years. I don't know why but the attacks always get worse when the weather warms up even a little bit. I never have an attack in the winter. I quit drinking so that should help. I haven't seen anything about drinking soda but I swear that when I drink soda my gout gets real bad. I can't take antiinflammatory drugs and this other medicine I've taken in the past takes the pain away but makes me sicker than a dog. The only thing that seems to help is cherry juice but I can only find it at the health food store for like $16 and it only lasts a couple of weeks. The cababage leaf thing was nasty and didn't do anything for my foot. I've had gout so bad I couldn't even walk from my car to the pharmacy to get my medicine. My question is what else works? Do I have to drink the actual cherry juice or could I take some sort of capsule? If you've had gout what has worked for you to prevent or cure the symptoms?

He is 15. Lately he's been having severe behavior and mood changes, as well as memory problems. He has frequent headaches. Recently he's experienced vision problems and dizziness. Also he's been getting frequent and severe nosebleeds, and has passed out twice because of them. Please, anyone who has some knowledge in this type of thing -could these be signs of a brain tumor? And also, should i tell him my suspicions? i don't want to freak him out, but i want him to get it checked if it's serious..... Please, I really need some help with this. Thanks!

I understand that frequent vomiting would be bad due to esophogus erosion, but how is the use of laxitives bad? I have a male friend that has some kind of bowel problem and used to have to use the restroom every couple of hours or so. He is on medication now, but still defecates approximately 6 times daily, but he's completely healthy. So that being said, how is bulimia different besides that it is self-induced?
