Avatar f tn Why is it that so many people tend to judge being pregnant at a young age, regardless of the situation? I'm 19, and it seems like I get so many dirty looks, and even comments about being pregnant so young.
Avatar f tn As a child, I was diagnosed with ADD and depression, but I thought they went away. Lately, I have been having problems remembering things, lately being a few years. I was in a bad car accident and that was when it came to my attention. I'm not sure if I have always had this problem, but I know I have had some hard blows to the head in my life. My mind is all mixed up all the time. My thoughts are jumping from thing to the next and I end up forgetting what I was thinking just a second ago.
Avatar n tn I use to have a girlfriend for a long time and i did not have this problem except at the very begining, however now that we broke up whenever i get the chance to have sex with another girl it gets soft right before doing it. As iv checked it out in your forum I am perfectly concious that it is all inside my head.
1260255 tn?1288654564 Yep. Examples: I spent two hours training a new volunteer at work. The next week, she came in and I just glanced at her and didn't say hi. Her face looked familiar, but I assumed she was just some substitute worker from another branch library. When I finally remembered half a minute later, I said, "Hi Melissa!" Her name is Angela. Also at work one day, I made some derogatory comment about men while kind of gossiping with female co-workers (which I shouldn't have).
Avatar f tn I have the exact problem. I have ADHD. I dont remember a lot before the age of 13, from then I had to mostly relearn everything I had learned in my younger years. Now I find it hard to remember anything I read, listen to, or try and study. I feel lost and confused since I am only 19 with this type of problem.
Avatar n tn To find out, a regular family doctor or a clinic can draw some blood and send it to the lab, and they can give the doctor a list of where your nutrition numbers are at, and that way he can spot a deficiency, and then recommend what supplement you should take to correct it.
Avatar f tn Yes and a person much older say 50 or more can be dx'd with type one. Type 1 isn't just for kids anymore. There is type 1 type 2 type 1.
Avatar f tn I never heard of fibromyalgia brains ages 10yrs.faster. I'm 58 and have memory problems also. Many times I can not complete a sentance either. Can you please tell me where you read or heard this? I'm worried myself.
Avatar n tn The most common reasons we see people getting shingles at a young age is that they got chicken pox at less than the age of 1. That means that the immunity they build to varicella zoster virus just isn't as good and wanes earlier. If you are generally healthy and your HIV test is negative (which I would have recommended), that's all good.
Avatar m tn I am a 46 year old male that has been experiencing some memory problems. Most people I know have memory problems so the question is what's normal. I can remember verbatim the last 30 to 50 words spoken on a television show or my locker combination from elementary school. But I can't remember where I set stuff down. I forget that I turned the tea kettle on or put a bag of popcorn in the microwave. I do remember it hits me, when I look for my tea.
Avatar m tn The direct answer to the question here with memory issues is mirtazapine. It appears to be a nootropic drug at increasing memory as well as being a antidepressant. I am on it and noticed improved memory and no depression symptoms.
Avatar n tn Have you heard of such weird conditions at such a young age? Am I at a higher risk for MS or any other nerve condition because of my history?
Avatar m tn Genetics play a Large role (family history of prostate cancer is a strong reason for even young men to be screened at least by DRE). The incidence of prostate cancer in younger men, is really, really small. (eg. there are thousands of cases per 100,000 population in men over 50, but 0 to 8 per 100,000 for assorted age range groupings between adulthood up to age 40 [cancerresearch.uk.org].
Avatar f tn i heard that propranolol causes memory loss. if so how wil i cope with creeping old age.
Avatar m tn Even if i do this, it still dribbles sometimes. Could these problems be related to premature ejaculation at all? I wish i could see a doctor about these problems but I am only 16 and would need my mother bring me. Im not sure what would be more embarrassing. My problem involves masturbation. I also get some pre-*** very easily. Is there something seriously wrong with me? Do all these problems relate in some way? What can i do without my parents finding out?
Avatar f tn I was wondering if I could be hitting menopause so young because I started having children at a young age(16yrs.)! After my last child was born I did get put on the depo shot but have not gotten a shot in 8 mos. I haven't had a period in 7 mos.(am not preg. been tested). I also know that the shot can mess up your cycle but still yet while I was on the shot I did have a period(light flow) every month! Then one month I spotted for a few hours one day and haven't done anything since.
