      From ConnieBell November 24, 2008

      I just noticed that you are from Orlando. I notice when we are in Florida that my face gets worse so I try to stay out of the sun but it's pretty hard to do down there. I you have a big hat, it helps.

    • I’m With You

      From ConnieBell November 24, 2008

      Hi did you get any Primrose yet? It may take a while before you notice anything. It's better to just try one thing at a time to see if you notice anything rather than several things at once. I was told in my health book to do it that way.

    • Close Menopause

      I'm 53 years old and am still having hot flashes and other various symptoms. I am using a natural approach in treating my symptoms.

      Treatments

      Progesterone Cream Working / Worked
      I used this during perimenopause and it helped to relieve cramping.
    • Close ADHD / ADD

      I was diagnosed as an adult with ADHD after my son was diagnosed when he was 6 yrs. old, that was 15 yrs. ago. I was also involved in a CHADD support group in my community.

      Treatments

      Ritalin Working / Worked
      It worked very well but it was before they made sustained release and so I had to take it every 3 hours.
      Wellbutrin Working / Worked
      Yes, it worked very well for me.
    • Open Anemia
      Type: Iron Deficiency Anemia

      I've been anemic for years, I don't eat red meat so it is difficult to keep my iron level up but I do take iron pills. Looking for any other advise I can find.

      Treatments

      Iron Working / Worked
      Does work usually.
    • Open Rosacea

      I was diagnosed with Rosacea when I was 26yrs. old. Now I'm in my 50s and the concerns that I have are with the broken blood vessels that I have now.

    • Open Celiac Disease

      Just recently realized that I can no longer tolerate wheat products. Symptoms go away when I avoid gluten.

    • Open Seasonal Affective Disorder

      I've known that I have SAD for several years now. I use to live alone so after work every night I would just lay on the sofa and watch tv. I thought of myself as a bear that needed to hibernate. Since I lived alone I had no one complaining. Now I have a room mate and she doesn't understand what is going on so maybe I just try to fight it this year.

    • Open Migraine Headaches

      Just started getting cluster migraines, with visual disturbances first before the pain starts.

      Treatments

      Caffeine Too Soon to Tell
      Excedrin Somewhat Helpful
    • Open Anxiety

      I'm ADHD with SAD and GAD.

      Treatments
