    • Close ADHD / ADD

      My son has been recently diagnosed with ADD. He is 9 years old and I am hearbroken. I feel that this is somehow my fault and that I should have seen the signs earlier.

    • Close Eating Disorders
      Type: Bulimia

      I have been bulimic since my late teens. I am now 30 and continue to struggle with my eating disorder. I binge and purge at least once a week sometimes more. I need support from people who understand in order to keep my ed under control.

      Treatments

      Prozac Working / Worked
      Worked well for about a year. Currently my 20mg dose is not helping anymore.
    • Open Back Pain

      Microdiscectomy at L4-L5. Disc herniation at L3-L4. Sciatica

      Treatments

      Acupuncture Somewhat Helpful
      Not the miracle cure I was expecting. Okay with pain but did not help much.
      Bedrest Somewhat Helpful
      Only helps when I have over done it with something like standing or sitting. Too much bedrest agravates the pain.
      Epidural Injection Working / Worked
      Worked for about 6 months at a time. Had a total of 4 epidurals.
      Flexeril Working / Worked
      Great for helping me with pain but not so much in the long run.
      Heat Working / Worked
      Temporary relief only
      Hydrocodone Working / Worked
      Great for the pain. Not for long term obviously. Made me sick to my stomach though.
      Ibuprofen Working / Worked
      As long as the pain is not severe it helps.
      Morphine Working / Worked
      Best of all the pain killers. Caused me stomach problems.
      Naproxen Somewhat Helpful
      Not the best. Not that great for pain.
      Physical Therapy Somewhat Helpful
      Sometimes I felt like this was a waste of time.
      Stretching Somewhat Helpful
      Helped me more after surgery than before.
      TENS Not Working
      Did nothing for me.
