My body normally tries to fall asleep at 8 pm and wake up at 3 or 4 am. This is not helpful because I work normal daytime hours, leave the house by 7 am and come home at 5:30 pm.

So my personal schedule leaves me with no time in the evening for my family and husband, and way too much time up alone in the wee hours of the morning with nothing to do.

I've tried staying awake longer in the evenings, but I always wake up at 3-4 am anyway and just get more and more tired, without managing to sleep any longer the following days.

I've had this weird sleep schedule since I was a child and have never managed to get out of it. Anyone have some ideas or am I some kind of extreme early-bird?

I may have to have the fluid from one hip joint scrapped out and was wondering how this affects the joint? Can you still walk properly, will it impair my walking and general function of the hip and for how long if so? Or can the joint work without it?

My wife has spinal stenosius, she had surgery last year and it help her alot,but her very bottom disc is out causing her to walk,stand,or sit without it being difficult and painful.She also has protruding dics in her neck as well as 2 buldging discs. Her Dr. had told her that if physical therepy doesn't help in another 3 months, that he'll just keep her on Oxycoton 40mg as long as it works for her.
Now,is there something wrong with this picture or am I that dumb. I need all the help I can get.

If there is an emergency,the wonderful people that staff the hospitals and ER's are there to help,and I want to thank every single one of you first.BUT...here's my problem.I was in an ER here in Las Vegas and saw a Mexican man who was suffering horribly and dripping blood by his seat while waiting more than four hours before he got helped.He had been sitting quietly trying to keep his nearly detached thumb onto his hand before the actual shock wore off and he felt it and started moaning in obvious agony.I doubt with the time that passed if he was able to get his thumb re-attached.My question is this: when I was there and said I had no insurance,I had a bad reaction from the person taking my info.I had cash,and paid (dearly) before I left.Is it possible that this man got overlooked because of the risk of non-payment due to lack of insurance? It's illegal,but I'm sure it could happen.

I've had a lots of aches and pains lately, once that has been bugging me the most is a sharp pain on my left side a little infront of my hip. What do you think this could mean? i've also had a lot of other pains such as headaches, sore muscles, sore neck, cramps (i can guess what that's from ^^), it hurts to breathe (it feels like there's a lot of pressure on my chest), and im really tired. i also just got a hepititas A vaccination and i've felt worse since i got that. In all, i don't feel feverish (my bodys not over heating or anything) and i don't feel any nausea. Can anyone diagnose me with something?
