I have severe endometriosis. I've tried multiple types of birth control. None have helped, and several have actually made my situation worse. For example, on most of them I pass a fist-sized ball of endometrium, AT ONE TIME, during my period. I take pain meds (usually Percoset, otherwise known as Oxycodone) almost daily. When I'm not taking that (which is about 1/4 of the time) I take Cataflam, an anti-spasmodic and anti-inflammatory drug. I have also undergone Lupron treatments. If you don't know what Lupron is, please look it up. That worked for 8 months and the problem came right back.
I have gone to numerous OBGYNs and asked for a hystorectomy. None will give it to me because I have no children. (I am 27 and KNOW I hate kids and never want any...)
So, do I have any other options that will work?

I'm a guy in my late 20s, in excellent health, but have always had a small bladder. I have to urinate a LOT -- often like once an hour during the day or even more, depending on how much i have to drink. I don't have any problems urinating or even any real sudden urgency to urinate -- i just can't hold much, and it's annoying how often i have to go, especially at night. When i was a kid i used to wet my bed every night because of this; now i *usually* can get up in the middle of the night to go, which is better but still annoying, especially when it's freezing cold out!

Is it possible by forcing myself to hold it in for a long time to stretch out my bladder so that it can hold more? Or will trying to stretch it out like that just cause more problems for my bladder in the long term? If holding it doesn't work, is there a surgery or some other treatment that could enable my bladder to hold more?

Anyone else had any experience with this? Any input would be much appreciated!

I have been sick for about a month now, I keep sneezing and I have a runny nose. All of the medicine that I have tried have not done me any good. I constantly cough, which is kind of embarassing when I go to school, especially now that it is mit-terms, and I don't want to keep disrupting everyone. My coughing has now become worse, taking a toll on my upper ribs and back.

Is there anything I can do?

What's the difference? I was doing some push-ups today and all of a sudden I felt a TIGHT feeling and couldn't go on. It didnt hurt but it made me stop my push-ups. The feeling doesnt hurt it just feels reaaly tight on the right side of my pec muscle, in the area where the armpit and the pec come together. How long should I lay off doing any chest workouts? I can lift my arm up all the way and tighten my chest withought any pain.

hi,

i have been out of work for six months due to a herniated disc and a disc tear. this happened off the job and is not work related. i am paying my own bills. my employer is sending me to there own town doctor for a "fit for duty exam". i do not mind going, but i rather keep my medical history between me and my personal doctors, and not the towns doctor. the town doctor will not examine me if i do not sign the release form for my medical records. i have two notes of stay out of work from both, my primary care, and back specialist doctors, along with a medical report and MRI. i will be giving them to the town doctor. i am currently in physical therapy. my question is, what can happen to me for not signing over my medical records, thus not being able to see there doctor for the fit for duty exam. are the two notes, report medical and MRI good enough?
