Depression & PTSD go away don't come back another day!

I've been suffering from Depression again and have been feeling like I am on the verge of a panic attack quite often.  I have also put up that emotional wall again that if someone were to dig into I would break down in tears. I am having trouble locating a psychiatrist or psychologist in my area that is on my insurance. I feel unbalanced emotionally.

Back pain and more

I've had back pain for 3 years and can't find anything that will help any. I've went through physical therapy 3 different times 8 weeks each time and I've went to chiropractors and nothing has helped. I've had injections but not epidurals because they said that I will need them when I get older and they probably wouldn't work anyway. I have 2 bulging and 1 herniated disc, pinched nerves, arthritis, and deterioration (degenerative disc...

Today's Show, 5/23/13, Stress and hair loss

Today's Show (23rd), about the stress and hair loss ... I agree with stress and hair loss, from personal experience. I've found that foods like eggs, nuts (almonds and cashews, and others I'm sure; these 2 were just ones I ate) and peanut butter, and other sources of BIOTIN got it growing back.  Also a biotin supplement (1000 mcg) worked when I couldn't eat the above foods.  This is me though; you should check with...

Rectal Spasms

Does anyone get rectal spasms?  If so and you have a way to relieve the pain as they are happening, PLEASE post. I have tried 2 medications, one under the tongue and the other a regular pill that is swallowed.  The pill (Bentyl) made my eyes hurt, very blurry, and I became severly constipated (and it didn't work).  The other one I don't remember the name of it but it is similar, and also did...

How to Spot Drug Abusers in the Workplace?

Everyone has days when their head just isn’t at work. This is excusable if it happens occasionally, as we all have stress from inside or outside the workplace or personal issues to deal with and we all have those types of days. But if these types of days seem to happen more often than not for some people that could be a sign of substance abuse. According to the 2011 National Survey on Drug Use...

Mercury Fillings

I have just seen your show on mercury fillings.  I am 43 years old and was diagnosed with Crohns disease when I was 12.  I have had mercury fillings since I was 5 and had read that there was a link between the fillings and Crohns disease.  5 years ago I paid to have all my fillings replaced - I have been medication and symptom free of Crohns disease for the past 4 years!! Coincidence...

gblarose

For at least 3 years I hear "hissing" in both ears. I've been to an ear doc twice and he only cleaned my ears and gave me a hearing test. SO frustrated. I'll never know if I have a slow leak in my tires because it sounds like that 24/7. Sleeping is even an issue. Am I alone? Anyone have a cure?

I love tall men! I am 4"11, and a tall man is such a turn on for me. I like it when a good, tall man is just tall enough that when he loves me he can just kiss the top of my head. I love being short and I would change a thing.

Difference between these?

What is the difference between exercise-induced anaphylactic shock, and exercise-induced asthma?  Without a day-to-day inhaler and a rescue inhaler I can't exercise because of asthma.  Would I go into anaphylactic shock in any way if I didn't use the inhalers?  I do carry around an epi-pen with me for other reasons but never thought of possibly needing it during exercise. Anyone know? Melissa.

Silicon condom

On today's show, they had talked about a slicion condom, it's  suppose to flow with the penis?  I am very interested on how that is going to work. As for the price, $100,000 that is just rediculous.

Should health care be based on lifestyle choices?

I found this question on the synopsis page, and thought I'd comment on it ... One thing I read was about giving preferential medical treatment to people who went to the gym and ate healthy. What about people who can't afford a gym/personal trainer/etc, and get their exercise outside by walking or running (or whatever it may be, just not in a gym)?  They still exercise like the people in the gym do, but because...

May 9th, 2013

Today was pretty much a good day, I just can't seem to get enough energy up to do anything. I couldn't  even get up enough energy to walk into the store today, but lucky for me, my wonderful loving husband went in for me and got me what I needed and wanted. The really good part of the day was that my Potassium level was normal again today, I hope it stays that way so...

Now after having surgery I am...

Bronchitis advice?

So around 2 weeks ago I started coughing a lot along with my allergies so I figured it was a part of that. But I kept taking a bunch of different allergy medicine & nothing really helped and I tried home remedies and that didn't work either. I even puked a few times from coughing so much. And like every night I would wake up like 3 times because of the dry cough and last...

My OPSU Vist on 05/06/2013

Yesterday my trip to the Out Paitient Service Unit at the hospital was a pretty good one. Monday is one of my blood draw days to check my Potassium and Magnesium levels, and I was able to keep it in normal range through the weekend; this is a very good thing and hopefully it will stay in normal range for longer periods of time so that I may reduce my visits from four days a...

In need of cooling relief? cool front is coldfront!

The Doctors featured coldfront® on their TV segment as a natural solution for cooling off menopausal hot flashes today! Yes, Dr. Travis called our personal cooling kit “cool front,” but that’s ok!  Whether you call it cool front, coldfront, your personal cooling companion, or "icy pads of comfort" (we have some very expressive fans), we are thrilled that The Doctors found coldfront®, and loved it! While the coldfront® ice pouches (we call them palm packs)...

Unusual Things ER Docotrs find inside people

Whether this is true, I really don't know, but the idea is funny, and someone had to have had the idea, at least to write it.  The act of gerbiling involves a tube up the backside, followed by a gerbil up that tube. Some stories suggest that the gerbil should be declawed as a safety precaution, but the main idea is to have the gerbil burrowing around one's anus long enough to bring about sexual...

For Dr. Lisa

A few weeks ago on the show they discussed genital warts and then referred to "herpes" as the gift that keeps on giving.  If you have been diagnosed with herpes, this comment is VERY DISHEARTENING.  I was very disappointed in Dr. Lisa.  For those of you beautiful people that have been diagnosed like myself, please go to Pinktent.com for support.  Dr. Kelly is absolutely amazing and very supportive.  Don't let this diagnosis get you down,...

Dr. Travis' Birthday

Today is Dr. Travis' birthday and I'm surprised nothing was said on the show.  Maybe he didn't want anything said.  He had most of the show on the girl that had the face transplant.  It was a good show and she was surely blessed to get a donor. Barb
