Adrenal Disorders :: Addison's Disease - Connection With Irregular Periods
My daughter is 19. About 18 months ago she started having panic attacks, feeling nauseous and shaking and becoming quite distressed. After counselling and medication it became controlled. She still suffered episodes of shaking and feeling as if her blood sugar was dropping. She has had episodes of lightheadedness and passed out at work , being out for about 10 minutes. All her tests have shown as normal to now, however something is suddenly causing these events. She has had bp, eeg, fasting bloods- glucose and thyroid function, all normal. She is awaiting a 24 hour eeg now. I read about adrenaline crashes and Addison's disease recently and its connection with irregular periods, which she gets and Vitiligo, which she has a small patch of. Is it worth discussing tests with her GP? they seem quite happy to put her regular visits there down to anxiety though.
View 1 RepliesBowel Disorders :: Nauseous After Eating And Vomiting After Eating Supper
I am what my doctor describes as a perfectly healthy 32 year female. I have a hiatal hernia but that may be beside the point. I had been on Paxil 20 up until September. At the end of October, I began feeling nauseous after eating and vomiting after eating supper. I do not feel better after vomiting and find it almost impossible the eat for 24 hours following. I feel incredibly exhausted after 3pm, and when I feel ill it's at or around 5pm. My blood tests are perfect, not pregnant, and up to this point generally healthy. I am looking for ideas, other experiences, and general info to find out and 'fix' what is all of a sudden wrong with me!

View 4 RepliesEating Disorders :: Getting Panic Attacks Due To Eating
I am a 21 year old female, I am 5'3 and weigh around 103-104lb (7 stone 5-6lb).
I used to be just under 10 stone a few years ago and crash dieted to lose the weight. I wanted to be 9 stone, then 8 and a half, then 8, then I was happy bouncing between 7.10-7.12 for a few months. But recently it has dropped, I was fine at 7 and a half, but as it's gone down I've wanted it to stay down. I weigh myself everyday before eating/drinking. If my weight is at 7.5 I'm not too bad, but jf it js at 7.6 I panic that I'm getting fat and will keep gaining. I try not to eat until my evening meal, which I always make sure I have, though sometimes end up snacking before if I start to feel too hungry. I have 2 cups of tea a day with 2 sugars in each to try and suppress my hunger. I also worry that when I start eating, I won't stop. Sometimes I will have a big takeaway, medium pizza all to myself, continue eating it even if it hurts, and then half an hour after, continue eating. I never make myself sick/take laxatives and wouldn't, but I sometimes try not to eat all day in case I lose control and keep eating and eating. I have anxiety/depression/ocd issues anyway and I'm worried I may have some sort of eating disorder too.

View 2 RepliesSkin :: Itchy Red Bumps Under Skin On Palms Of Hands And Some On Sole Of Foot
About a year ago I noticed raised areas, like blisters under skin on the Palms of my hands(red), some pin head size others small nail head size some of the larger ones form a blister well under the skin...painful to touch. The others ones are just itchy, drive you nuts itchy. A doctor checked on Vasculitis and they think it is that...I seem to think there is a bacterial inflammation in my blood. Has anyone heard of this? I take Zyrtec 1 daily and if I miss two days the bumps come on me with a vengeance. A biopsy was done at the site of a bump and prevalent of Neutrophils. I had a corticosteroid shot for another ailment and it worked miracles on my vasculitis. Does anyone know of other diseases that I should check into. and will a full body pet scan reveal the source of this stuff.

Over the last few days I have developed tiny bumps under the skin of my fingertips and a few places on my palms. Both hands are involved and almost all the fingers. They do not hurt unless touched. It almost feels like I have a sliver of glass in the spot. I have had these before but only a few and they went away within a day or two. The ones I have now have been present for a week and it seems more are coming. What is going on?
View 2 RepliesSkin :: Flaky Dry Skin With Red Bumps On Forehead
I periodically suffer from dry skin on the forehead and cheeks, and now is another stint. It is far worse than anything I have ever seen this time though, with skin actually flaking off and being very visibly dry, and only on the forehead not on the cheeks as well. In addition, I have red bumps on my forehead that look unlike any pimples I have ever had. This has been going on for perhaps a week now. I have no idea what is causing this and really want it to go away.
View 11 RepliesCan I Still Get Pregnant? Irregular Periods
I had unprotected sex twice with my partner we knew what we were doing there was no mistakes about any of this... I had unprotected sex roughly about 10 days before my period actually came. I am regular with my periods always the 30th or 31st give or take a couple of days I'm fairly lucky to be that regular... I have had my period but I am wondering if having my period means that I am not pregnant? Does implantation take a few weeks? I have been stupidly tired over I'd say the last couple of days with a dull headache that won't shift! Bloated with back pain and breasts seem to look a little larger than normal?

So, I'm 15, never had sex or done any type of foreplay or even touched myself and I started my period a week after I turned 11. I've NEVER had a regular period and I just started charting it to see how many times I skipped, however charting it all I'm REALLY messed up.
August: 2 days of going to the bathroom whipping once and getting a very light pink/red clear vaginal fluid on the toilet paper, but only once each day.
September: 3 days of going to that bathroom whipping once and getting a very light pink/red clear vaginal fluid on the toilet paper, but only once each day.
October: 2 days of going to that bathroom whipping once and getting a very light pink/red clear vaginal fluid on the toilet paper, but only once each day. On the 3rd day I got a bit more of a red colored clear fluid when I whipped once, but that is all.
I have told my mom and she said she'd take me to a doctor, but I know she's too busy for me. I'm really sad, scared, and angry.

View 2 RepliesVERY Irregular Periods :: Trying To Get Pregnant
I have been married for 4 months but been with my husband 2 years. We are talking about having a baby, but my periods are very irregular. This topic may sound the same as others, but I can't find any with irregular periods like mine. In 2011, I had 2 periods 8 months apart that were roughly 2 weeks long each. I started my first in April. I started the deposit shot in October and had the next period in December. In 2012, I had 4 periods. March - June. They were about 4-5 days each. I got off the shot in June. The next period I got started two days ago. My husband and I have sex every day so that wouldn't be an issue with us with conceiving. I have no idea if or when I will ovulate. I was going to buy some kits but have no idea where to start. I want to see a gyno but haven't been added to his insurance yet. Anyhoo, I figured asking for advice would help me out and anyone else who have periods like I do.

My periods are irregular so it's hard to tell when my next one will be but, the last period I had was the 11th of last month. I have been getting symptoms but I am not sure if they are early pregnancy or period symptoms. My boyfriend had fingered me recently and I saw blood, the blood looked very bright. When I went to the bathroom I saw blood in the toilet as well. Also, a few days before this I was spotting. Could this mean I'm pregnant?
