I've always had trouble going to the bathroom and very rarely get bowel movement. Can anyone suggest some easy ways to help or foods to avoid ect.
I am an exchange student so I don't have that much control over my diet no matter how hard I try to eat lots of vegtebles, my host-family eat a lot of potatoes and bread. I don't want to tell them about my problem, so what are some inconspicouss things I can do to help me go on a regular basis? And what should I do when I am constipated? Thank you for any advice.

if someone took 3 hits of swagg (low grade marijuana) every day for 2 weeks, then quit, then realized they had to take an extremely important pee test 5 days later...could it be passed, and what would be the best methods?

If you took a drug test on Thursday at 1:30pm, when would they have the results to let you know if u passed? It was a urine test, and I was told 48 hours, that's why I asked. The test was taken at Lab Corp for a job.

I get diarrhea a lot. I don't know why. I'm a college kid, just turned 20 a few days ago. it seems there is no one week that goes by that i don't have diarrhea at least 3 times. its been this way for a while. i poop alot. everyone i live with all make sure to note that i poop alot more than the common person. i don't know why. it's sometimes frustrating to go on long trips back home from college and stuff because i'll have to stop a few times just to poop. i keep taking immodium, sometimes ahead of the time, and that works for about a day. alot of the times once the immodium wears off, im in for a full day of the runs. (by a full day i mean sitting on the can about 6-8 times). so i dunno. immodium works but not that greatly. i was wondering what else to do? should i see if a doc will prescribe a med for it? i eat healthy and i exercise more than a couch potato... but i'm lost.

Well I went the whole day feeling nothing, then at night I had a little bit of stomach pain with a nauseous feeling. Then I tried to sleep and woke up feeling close to vomiting and feeling cold.

I just threw up, only once, though, and I feel kinda better.

What do I have? (I know it's vague, but please, name things.)

I'm starting to lose hope. My husband is addicted to pot. After months of negotiation, he finally agreed to enter a drug rehab and recieve treatment. The thing is, I don't think any program works for him. He just finished his second treatment program and I don't think it made any changes. He still smokes pot. Do I have to ask him to enter another drug rehab? Do I have to finally give up on him?

My younger brother is addicted to crack. He doesn't know that I'm aware of this. His ex-girlfriend Nina told me about it. She said that he smokes crack every single day in that old tree house in his best friend's backyard. I think his addiction to crack is also the reason why they broke up. Anyway, I can't allow my brother to go on with his little hobby. I think it's also the reason why he is having some respiratory complications. I'm planning to do an intervention. The thing is, I'm a bit scared. What will happen if I fail?

The spot in between the bottom of my ribs just above my stomach, is very sore to touch and if I bend at the waist, I have a strong urge to be sick.

It's been happening off and on for months and comes out of no where. It hurts like crazy to touch that part of my stomach at times.

Any ideas on what it is?

Okay, I've tried the medicine and the therapy, but it looks like I'm just in a position where I'm going to be nauseus for the next few years, if not the rest of my life. What are some things you have done to distract yourself when you're nauseus?

My ex-husband is an alcoholic and I'm scared that my son would turn into one also. So, I'm looking for organizations or societies that might us be informed about alcoholism. I don't want my son to be like his father. I want him to realize the consequences of abusing alcohol so that he would try to stay away from it. Please help me. I want to save my son.

I usually don't sleep more than four or five hours a night, it's frequently less than that, and I'm always tired, but not so much. The rare nights that I can sleep six hours or more, I wake up feeling more tired, and stay sleepy all day.

Ideas?

Thank you for your answer! :)

Have a wonderful week ahead! :)

So since high school, i've suffered from loud stomach noises. This effects how I perform in exams, classes, meetings, with friends, family.... I become self conscious and unable to act 'normal'.
I have read plenty of responses here from people who kinda suffer from this unfortunate event.
I recently started taking Beano with food. I take GasX like candy in the attempt to reduce these noises. Rolaids also for acid. One of my docs thinks its IBS. Others have said its all in my head. I also read that you need to have a consistant eating timetable and make going to the restroom part of your morning routine.
It seems thats sometimes it is non-existant, while at other times... it takes control of my life. I have asked professors to take my exams alone in their offices, far from the rest of the hall, which many have accomodated, but I can't continue like this!
Please share with me if you suffer from the same thing, and what you are doing to solve this issue! Feel free to email me also.

I'm getting very serious about a guy who I know in the past has had very heavy drug usage, cocaine, meth, acid, etc....and still on occasion uses them now. If I end up wanting to have a kid with him....does anyone know if drug use on his part could effect his sperm in any way to cause any birth defects?

A friend of mine asked me if a clean urine test if a saliva test would be clean as well. He is an occasionally marijuana smoker and took an at home urine drug test and it came back negative. He has a pre employment drug test on Tuesday and isn't sure if it will be a urine test or a saliva test. If urine is clean, will saliva be clean as well? If not, is there anything you can do or anyway to test it beforehand? Any information would be greatly appreciated.
