There are a few, although i have found with specialists you need to find the correct discipline even though everybody says they can help:

Cranial Osteopathy?
Sacrocranial?
Chiropractor?
Dentist with TMJ skills?

Any ideas??

I actually bought one a long time ago. Tried to watch it twice. I could not get past the first 15 or so minutes and even that was a chore. It was bad, very bad. Critics said he was a grade B actor, I think they were being kind.

I don't know what's wrong with me. I'm only 15 and should be perfectly healthy. I've been having dizzy spells, head aches, tingling in the back of my head and in my feet, and I lose time without remembering what happened. It's really starting to scare me. I recently lost my appatite and haven't eaten much in the last two days. I've tried talking to my parents about it but they think I'm imagining things. What do you think?

My father is 75 and had a spinal cord tumor (very large) removed in 1996. He has had a deterating condition for the last 12 years which basically leaves him home bound. He has a very hard time walking and getting around short distances. He had a mild or light stroke a month ago. His new Doctor has now dianosed him with Radiation Nercious but would not give us any details of his prognosis. He only said he could not treat him with anything. Can anyone give me an idea (Doctors please) of what I am faced with? Will this eventally kill him? Will this cause other Life-Threatening conditions? WE are getting a 2nd opinion. Please help me understand this.

what foods can be used to help lower high blood pressure without triggering the unwanted symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) my digestion does not work too well with high levels of fibre because of suffering (IBS). If I have something containing high levels of fibre it triggers off that problem, and just wanted to know if there is anything that can be used as a cure to help this. I also have a friend who suffers with the same problem, and cannot eat anything dairy. Are there any good recipes that we could try which may just possibly help us? we would very much appreciate any assitance regarding this. Many Thanks.

Hello
Just under 5 months ago I began with a tremor down my left hand side, I was admitted to hospital where they did a MRI, EEG and blood tests. They couldn't find any reason for the tremor but refused to run more tests and said it was psychological. I really don't understand this I wasn't under that much pressure just day to day living stuff and if I do get stressed I talk about it so that it doesn't get bottled up. I'm really confused the tremor isn't my only symtom though I can't concerntrate, I have postral gaite (stuffle), and some slight memory loss, this is scary and my doctor just won't believe me. Please help

Does anyone else feel like there Dr fobs them off?

I've had excruciating back pain and abdominal pain for 8 weeks now, bleeding from my back passage, vomiting and I've lost a stone in 6 weeks beacuse I can't eat. It's agony if someone knocks my stomach too. He reckons I'm to young for an endoscopy (I'm 27).I must of dreamt the one I had last year for an ulcer!! And I'm to young for the blood to be serious...Bleeding from your back passage is not normal at any age!! He gave me tablets for bowel spasm. Told me to go back if it still hurts...ARGH!!

My question is does anyone else feel like there Dr doesn't listen? Just dismisses things...Have you been fobbed off and it turned out to be serious?

my Mom aches as i mentioned above, if she goes too long without taking ibuprofen (she takes two-200 mg. daily and one 325 mg. of aspirin dailey, later as blood thinner and the ipuprofen for her rheumatoid arthritis --which she does NOT have badly for 3 yrs. now;
she took methroxate ? (spelling ?) 3 yrs ago for only 7 wks. & she just stopped going to her Rheumatologist. She's been on statin, Zocor, 1 mo. for high cholesterol; I wonder if her aching is caused by Statins; she seems to be weaker & tire more easily too, since she's been on Zocor, but it's hard to tell What causes What! Are there certain tests her Doc can do -to see if the Zocor is causing the aching all-over. She only takes the aspirin and ibuprophen ONCE daily in dosage i mentioned above, but if she takes them a few hrs LATER than usual, the aching returns.
Can her rheumatoid arthritis cause tHAT TYPE OF aching, even tho her hands, etc, are not in pain--as they were a few yrs ago.
thanks; Mom, 57 onThanksgiving.
