    • Close Depression

      I don't know why am so frustrated, angry, sad, am afraid to be officially diagnosed, don't want to know the worst or have records of anxiety due to insurance records, but am desperate and contemplating contacting my Dr for options, causes etc.

      Treatments

      Positive Thinking Working / Worked
      It's like playing a part, handy for public display, but not the norm. Just makes me feel worse, (phony).
      Support from Friends & Family Working / Worked
      Limited as am ashamed for majority of family or friends to see me less than perfectly ok, strong. Not succeeding.
    • Close Healthy Sex

      Sex, what is that. Been a very long time for healthy or otherwise.

    • Open GERD & Heartburn

      Was diagnosed in 2004 after 10 day hospitalization for internal bleeding. Looks like a life time struggle.

      Treatments

      Antacids Working / Worked
      Only resort to them when I ignore diet requirments
      Avoid Certain Foods / Chemicals Working / Worked
      When I play, I pay, big time
      Dietary Modification Working / Worked
      A must for the rest of my life.
      Protonix Working / Worked
      Good as long as I am on it. Tried to go without after a year and not a pleasant experience.
      Raising Bed Position Working / Worked
      Helped considerably
