    • Close Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

      Last fall the symptoms started, abdominal pain, gas, constipation... you know the drill. I started having other unusual symptoms (I will spare you the gory details) I talked to doc. I was told IBS. I did some research, and I agree. Life has been hard since this started. I find it hard to imagine I won't get better. I find it hard to imagine a life having to choose between chocolate or pain. Right now, everthing seems to give me trouble. I have no idea how to deal with this.

      Treatments

      Acidophilus Not Working
      I had been taking it before symptoms appeared last fall. So It didn't prevent this.
      Psyllium Working / Worked
      The only thing that helps so far I take it after every meal.
      Peppermint Too Soon to Tell
      I bought pure brands of both and steeped them together and drank two nights ago. Skipped last night and felt bad again.
      Drinking Water Too Soon to Tell
      geeeeeezzzzeee
    • Close Asthma
      Type: Adult Asthma

      My asthma started right after my father died in 1994 (adult onset). I was 36 then. There have been times it was very bad. Right now it's under control. I'm tired of all the meds, but see no end in sight. I live in a very bad air area, my doctor used to tell me to move to the coast. I told home, give me the bucks to afford a house there and I will, I live in Cali~~

      Treatments

      Inhaler Working / Worked
      albuterol what can you say it works when you need it to.
      Singulair Working / Worked
      Got me off the albuterol almost completely.
    • Open Depression

      Depression runs deep in my family, on my mother's side. i have fought it for years, perhaps all my life. I often feel like i don't fit in. I get paranoid that others don't really care about me. I am tired of being sad. I am 48 almost 49 years old and i think it's time I got some help. My experiences with therapist have not been very good, except for one. I am hear for advice and support about how to be more proactive about my depression.

      Treatments

      DailyStrength Too Soon to Tell
      Atarax Not Working
      I was prescribed it for allergies and i take 25 mg at night. I do know it's a antidepressent, but haven't seen any improvement in my depression
    • Open Myasthenia Gravis

      My 15 year old daughter has had two edisodes of a drooping eyelid. It appears and then it goes away after an hour or two. Her pediatrician told us yesterday it's probable Myasthenia Gravis. She has an appointment with an ophthalmogist Friday. Her doctor told me the name of the disease but did not tell me what it was. I went home an looked it up on the computer. I don't know what to do and I am worried about her. If anyone can tell we more about this disease I would appreciate it.
