When I was 15 (2000), I was diagnosed with a mild eating disorder and then anorexia in 2001. I went from 61kg down to 43kg and ended up in an out patient treatment program in 2002. I was there for 6 months, left in 2003 because I wasn't apparantly ready to get better, however from 2003-2005, I sought of started working through a lot of the stuff (very rocky road and a lot of tears).

While I'm not as entranched in the illness as I used to be, I still struggle with a lot of things. I still wouldn't say I eat normally, but what is normal these days? I have had a few moments where I chose to try eating three meals a day, but I always end up reverting to my old ways of cutting out calories and eating as little as possible.

I feel constantly consumed by thoughts of wanting to lose more weight and restrict, but I don't see it as ED behaviour-I don't feel sick. Am I still suffering from an ED? I'm 5'2, 47kg; would really like to hear from any others going through a similar thing

My husband's having a vasectomy in a couple of weeks. If you've had one, do you have any advice for him? How long did your recovery take? What made the discomfort more bearable? Are you glad you did it?

I have a nine month old daughter who is in physical therapy for severe developmental delays (i.e. - she doesn't sit, crawl, hold a bottle, play with toys, hold on to anything, she basically doesn't do anything) and SSI has been denied twice saying she is not disabled. I have had to quit work so I can get her from doctor to doctor and therapy. No one can tell me what's wrong, they just say she's had brain damage (she was born at 29 weeks, weighing 1280 grams) and we have to wait. Her insurance runs out the end of February and I can't get her on anything else that my husband and I can afford, not with all the specialists. What can I do to get them to approve her? She needs it and I know she qualifies, I just need to know what avenue to pursue.

My son is 24 who attends college away from home (525 miles).has asthma, and unresponsible about his health and schooling. I know the most of you are going to say that he's an adult that he should be responsible and I agree. His asthma is becoming chronic because he didn't believe that this disease would take over him. He was just release from the hospital (1 week stay) and he was on a breathing machine for 3 days. Doctors talk to him about this disease...told him that he must take his medicines...The next day, my son and I were in an agrument about taking his medicines..because he doesn't like pills...He doesn't have any insurance. I have applied for assistance from the state we live. Since I know he nots reliable for health or schooling (grades failing)..Would you release him back to school (525 away) or Monitor him were we live?

blood test report

2007-12-31 08:37:39 · 5 answers · asked by richard g 1 in Other - Health

she came to me and told me that her underwear had blood on it. My wife isnt here yet and wont be returning untill later tonight. But i found this weird because she's only 9, so i called the doctors and the first thing he asked was if she was over weight. and i told him no. and he told me it was young but it's still ok.

Im confused on what to do untill my wife gets home.
I called her a few times but that was before my daughter told me, and my wife's been busy lately.
I'll try again later but for now what should i do?

I have white teeth but I want them brighter (like the celebrity's teeth), and I was wondering what would you prefer, taking good care of your teeth (I was planning on buying a $200 SoniCare toothbrush) or using those whitestrips, trays, etc.?

I already have a $20 Oral-B toothbrush. I brush in the morning with Crest VividWhite toothpaste from 1.5~3 minutes and after that I use Crest Whitening mouthwash for 1 minute. Before going to sleep, I brush my teeth with Crest VividWhite Night toothpaste from 1.5~3 minutes and after that I use Crest Glide Floss with Scope on all my teeth, then I use the Crest Whitening mouthwash for 1 minute.

Alright I truly love the sport of wrestling and all but for some reason during the season I get really depressed, anxious, jumpy, and sour in the stomach. Usually before Saturday (when tournaments are) I get nervous which is normal probably from the competition. But I will get sweaty in the palms just doing nothing.

And about the depression. It strikes randomly but often enough during season that I know its coming from wrestling. I get terribly depressed and feel almost worthless in the world. Very rarely do thoughts of suicide come up but they have once in awhile.

It's not from cutting weight. I've only had to really cut weight badly once for alpha weigh ins and I made sure to start early so it wasn't a problem. I'm not the best wrestler on the team but I'm almost not the worst. Could it be my average performance, despite my work in the summer that brings me down? Or is it from the stresses of a long practice and such. Has anyone felt this before? Could it be hormonal?
