I've tried the patch and the gum. Problem with that was, I'd have a cigarette in my hand, the patch on my arm, and the gum in my mouth. I was better off with just the cigarette.

Are there alternative methods to quitting? Im thinking the cravings are more psychological than physical. I really want to quit though! Please help!

I understand that Disneyland rides are nowhere in comparison to some at Magic Mountain or other parks but can it help offset motion sickness?

Even after I stopped using contacts, everynight, when I sleep, I wake up of pain when my eye ball moves due to rem sleep while eye lid is stuck to my eye ball like a glue. At least that's what it feels like. What do I do? I went to see one local opthamologist but she couldn't help. I am looking for another more competent opthalmologist but meanwhile, anybody have thoughts on this? Any opinion will be appreciated.

My mom works thursday, friday, and saturday night, and monday, friday, sunday afternoons at a restaurant. She just started the night shifts a couple weeks ago but after that she cannot sleep! She used to be able to sleep heavily. She also drank warm milk at night and she said that helps a little, but what would make her sleep better she asks?

Recently I have been having problems sleeping. I either can't fall asleep at all, or when I do I just wake up a few hours later; and even when I get over 10 hours of sleep, in the morning, it feels like I got no sleep at all. Then the other day, I say the sleep number bed on tv and thought it looked perfect, but when I saw some ratings online, they weren't that good. So if anyone knows of a good mattress, PLEASE let me know about them!

They both occured at the same time while I was playing golf, so it seems they may have been triggered by allergies??? It is very uncomfortable. I have been putting hot compresses on my eyes and taking Benadryl. Not sure if I should call an eye doctor or an allergist. Also was hoping for advice on what I can do to lessen the pain until I can get in to see a doctor.

hi, i have a major problem. i have severe IBS and have a really hard time keeping myself hydrated. recently, i got so dehydrated that i missed several weeks of work - not realizing that all my bizarre symptoms were only dehydration. so, i go to the doc and of course, he tells me to drink more water. i am a dr pepper fanatic (bad, i know) and i always drink it cold out of the frig and over ice. but, when i drink water out of the frig even without ice i get freezing cold regardless of the room temperature, get goose bumps and literally start shivering. why is this? does anyone else have this problem? it is why i don't like to drink water. will it subside if i stick with it? i run a naturally low temperature - about 97.8 - 98.0 - does that have something to do with it?

I've been taking Lisinopril 10mg for about 15 months. My blood pressure is generally in the 116/73 range with a pulse of 56? My pulse rate everytime I test is or has never been more than 61. I'm concerned about this as I am a smoker and to my knowledge smoking will increase heart rate. So if I were to quit.........? My doctor doesn't seem to be concerned, just looking for a 2nd opinion or input from someone who is qualified and not every wanna be doctor telling me that smoking is bad and will kill me.

Basically, in a professional opinon could my dosage be to high? I take 1 pill per day at about the same time everyday.

my chin area feels funny. Putting a heating pad on sore areas helps but I have to alternate, chest, back, face. Eventually I feel okay again. What could be the problem?

I just can't sleep for more than 7 hours. If i go to sleep at 2 am i will wake up at 8 am to 9am, if i go to sleep at 11 pm i will wake up at 5 am - 6 am. When i wake up, i have a headache and nausea for about 30 minutes, then for the rest of the day i have an uneasy and queasy stomach. If i try to sleep longer than this, i will keep waking up 15 minutes. I am also tired all day and don't have much energy. Any suggestions?
