My son is 15. He is very tired most of the time. I was like this in my teen years too. He is taking vitamins and gets to sleep early at night, yet he still is very tired. Sometimes he even falls asleep in school. Would it be ok to give him caffiene pills? Would this harm him in some way? Any other suggestions to help him? Thank you.

When your ill, even from a cold or something, why do you feel worse in the morning and in the evenings but can feel alright in the day?

Is it to do with the cycle of hormones? Exhaustion? Lowing Immune System?

I just always wondered why ^_^

I have recently been diagnosed with a protuding disk just above the sacrum. I am 32 years old and am wondering how this injury will affect my life. Will I have chronic problems? I am in the process of enlisting in the military and as of right now I think I would be disqualified. Are there any good treatments or other solutions to get my back to 100%?

I know I'm being really paraniod, but I can constantly hear my pulse going past my right ear and it sounds really grainy. I keep getting minor headaches as well, does anyone know if they might be connected. I would feel silly going to the doctors cause I can hear my pulse....

I was injured on 1/2/05 @ work with a 50lb box of meat fell on my head and neck. She has denied me all the proper medical treatment and sent me to just occupational health. They are not the proper people to treat some one already with 2 prior neck surgerys. She has denied me neurosurgeons of the head/neck along with the nerve injury hat one main neurosurgeon said I had of occipital neuralgia. I need to get some answer as to what can be done to people like her when this is gonna be pain for the rest of my life with spinal stenosis, krytosis, degenerative bone disease and constant pain to the back of my head. If you can help please do.

I've been having back, rib and leg pain and went to the chiropractor. He took xrays and my spine was out of alignment. He said that he will be able to fix it by working on me and wants me to go back in 2 days. I'm only 25 years old. I run on a treadmill about 5 times a week. Is this a common thing and how long should it take to get it back in place? I'm having more back pain since he worked on it.
