I have been having this happen lately. I will go to swallow something and my throat freezes up. I will get ready and then try to swallow and it's like the mechanism for swallowing in my throat won't work and I sit there panicking cause I cant swallow nor can I breath. I am stuck. Scares the crap out of me. Anyone have this happen? Why?

I haven't gotten an x-ray done in two years, and I'm currently 16. I'm pretty scared about it, as I really really really don't want surgery. It was 26 degrees and lumbar (lower back).

Might anyone know the rate that it can advance in two years time?

On the good side, I haven't had any pain from it yet, so maybe it's not bad enough to need surgery?

I am a nervous wreak :(

Ok, for the past three years i've been getting this weird feeling in my chest when i breath in. It feels like my chest is really tight or like i can't get enough air. I know that both my mom and my dad often have a hard time breathing and they've both described the same feeling. I've noticed that it gets a lot worse after i've been doing something active. Early i was at a friend's Christmas party and we all went outside to go sledding down this huge hill behind his house. Well everyone else could run up the hill about 5 times before having to take a break, but I could only walk up the hill once then i'd have to sit and rest for like 5 minutes before i could breath again. It also happens when I'm just sitting down watchin TV or relaxing. I've told my aunt (who i live with) but she says I'm just "faking" it because i want attention. Does anyone know what it could be or why I'd be feeling this way??

I took my medication like I am supposed to and I got very dizzy for 3 hours and it wasn't all that funny. I didn't like being dizzy while working especially when I have to move clothes around and pick up stuff off of the floor. What should I do?

I was just wondering, I have a very good amount of muscle on my legs (I do track, tennis, and football), and I am trying to build my legs a lot now. I've been running, and doing squats for my thighs and Iv'e also been running. I was just wondering though,aside from leg muscle, would stronger leg bones also help me run faster?
I'M NOT DOING PILLS-I DON'T CARE IF THEY'RE NATURAL.
Also what can I eat to get stronger bones

They ALSO have to coat the inside of the soda can with a poly coating to keep it from eating through the can. So what do you think it does to your stomach and your bladder and liver ?

Okay so I was wondering which works better, proactive or the clean n clear challenge or if either work. Also, I live in a dry climate (colorado) so does that make a difference.

So today at school I really needed to use the bathroom so I asked my teacher if I could go, but she said no. So I was bouncing around and doing a potty dance. Until finally I couldn't hold it any longer and I peed in my pants a tiny bit. So I held my hand in between my legs very tightly so that no more pee would come out. And I raced out the door to the bathrooms. But when I got the all of the stalls were full and there was a long line. So I cut to the front of the line and pounded on the stall doors asking to come in. It was 10 minutes of total squirming and uncomfortableness, but finally I went in. Bursting to pee my belt buckle was stuck. Until it FINALLY got unstuck and I got a chance to pee. But I needed to use the bathroom SO badly that I peed all over my pants and I started to sit down to finish peeing, but I ended up going all over the seat and floor because my bladder was so full and I was peeing so much. So then I ran out crying with pee all over my pants! (I'm 12 BTW.)

My uncle's dad had a very serious type of cancer. Even the morphine wasn't helping. He was given 1 month to live last week, and today.. he passed away. Just at 10:15 am. actually. My aunt called my mom and asked her to tell everybody.

Christmas is days away; what do we do!?

They are supposed to come over Christmas Eve, and its a tradition, I would never want to be selfish about somebodys death.. but wouldn't coming over and enjoying yourself especially on Jesus' Birthday be the smart thing to do? Plus, we exchange gifts every year on Christmas Eve, and that kind of thing. It will most likely ruin my whole Christmas if they are not here...

I know that it takes a while to get over a death, they have two daughters [ my cousins ].

What should my mom and me do? It is not our pappy. It is my aunts husband [ so my uncle's ] dad.

We were going to bake food and take it over but we are lost in what to do. I really don't need the stress..

PLEASE HELP!? advice!?!?

I know this is a gross question but honestly I don't know why I got sick from eating raw cookie dough.I have never gotten sick from eating raw dough, but last night I made some and snacked on it as I was baking cookies and hours later I was in for a terrible surprise. Stomach cramps, diarrhea, this went on for hours. I wasn't running a fever or at least I didn;t think I was. I never vomited either. So I don't think I got salmonella poisoning. What happened? Has this ever happened to you?

For a little over two weeks now I have been feeling really strange, My mom, My Aunts, My Brothers, My friends and even My mothers friends all tell me it's all part of a Panic/Anxiety attack. Here are my sympthoms..


- Stomach makes gurgling noises (Even when not hungry) It's from my left side
- My throat feels funny like I have something in it (When I don't)
- I get really odd abdominal pains
- I usually feel like I can't take deep breaths (tho I do when I think I can't)
- My throat makes this really strange noise when I make myself breathe out
- I get Chest Pains
- I get stomach pains (even when not hungry)
- I get Headaches
- I feel really tired alot of the time (Even tho I don't have a great sleeping schedule)
- Most of the time my stomach hurts to where I can't even eat


I'm a bit scared about all of this cause I am skepital that Anxiety can do all that espeically the gurgling noises and the throat problem. I don't think it's a cold cause the only thing I have not done is Cough. I'm just really scared I am going to die, I am aware that I do have panic attacks, but these sympthoms are there even when Panic Attacks are not. It's obviously now Christmas time and doctor's are closed till after Christmas which also scares me cause I don't know what will happen if I wait. Can anyone help me please? I'm really worried about all this and I'm only 20 years old..=(

Hi, I am 18 years old. I am a major coffeeholic, and I drink at the minimum 4-5 cups of coffee a day. Whenever I don't drink a cup of coffee, I get a headache. I don't know why. I've heard others say they get a headache if they don't have a cup of coffee in the morning. Why would this happen? Is it unhealthy to drink 4-5 cups of coffee a day. Somtimes I drink more cups a day.

I am completely out of any sort of normal sleep cycle. I can't fall asleep before 3am most days, and I'll sleep 13-14 hours a night on weekends. Even if I go to bed early, I'll sleep way too long.

There's never a point where I wake up and feel refreshed. I always just feel like I could go back to sleep...so I usually do.

What can I do? I want to be able to go to sleep at 11 and wake up at 7! Simply forcing myself to follow that schedule doesn't seem to work.
