Avatar f tn Hello tasha24809, my name is Noelle. I am 14 years old and I to struggle with severe anxiety problems. I am so sorry about your baby, both my brother and mother have also gone to be with the Lord. I know that lossing someone close to you can hurt physically. Try to focus on things you enjoy that you are going to do later. If you are hit with any of these symptoms think about a place that at least feels safe- just focus on making it to that place.
Avatar m tn Yes, it should go away and regrow after you start your anti anxiety med. 17 sounds way to young to go bald. Haha no worries kid...again just anxiety and it will grow back after the pills chill you out. What kind of pills did you get? I need some anti anxiety pills too. Please tell me how they make you feel or if you do any better on them because I may ask my Dr. about them.
Avatar m tn I know, when you feel the anxiety, it leads to more anxiety because you are anxious they will notice your anxiety... Higher heart rate, blood pressure, chest pains, wish to immediately leave the place... And to me, it seems better to leave home at night or when it is colder or rainy, because there are less people out there, on the street... You are not alone!
1574975 tn?1317072090 A loss, an extended period of high stress, a major life change. This little gene then comes to life. And anxiety/depression/any other mental disorder is set in motion. People who do not have the defective gene tend to self-recover from crisis, people who do have the defective gene have a harder time because there is something wrong in our very biological make-up that prevents us from becoming well as fast as others.
Avatar m tn I just got my mammogram result today and too bad I was not able to let my attending doctor read my result because he was already out when the result came in...To ease my anxiety..I would just like to know does it mean in the findings that it is Dense Breast with vague nodularities? What does it mean..I am hi risk of breast cancer because my mom has a stage 1 Breast CA...she's in her 4th year now of cancer survival. Pls.
Avatar n tn A while back, fear gene (GRH and Stathmin) were found. Does any one know any advancements on these findings as to how this helps a lay-person who is anxiety ridden? Also any word on D-cylcoserine/yohimbin or is it still in trial? Any feedback? Or do we still resort to old ways of self-help books and psychotherapies (tapes and cds and stuff!
Avatar f tn jcook While there is some fairly new research being done on the possibility of some kinds of anxiety being inherited or very specific gene combinations from both parents that might predispose someone to anxiety, there is nothing concrete as of yet. And there is certainly no scientific evidence to back up your statement that it is "passed from mothers to their kids.
Avatar f tn Could gene therapy (as seen in Good Morning America) used to treat Lebers potentially be used to treat myopic degeneration of retina?
976897 tn?1379167602 Its more like introducing a healthy gene. Glybera is capable of encasing the correct LPL gene in an adeno-associated virus (AAV) which hones in on muscle cells. The virus infects muscle cells with a copy of a healthy gene and a one-off treatment is effective. Lets hope for the best.
Avatar f tn My mom has stage 4 non small cell lung cancer with a marker of EGFR gene. Im so happy that they found this marker because it means they cab treat it. But i was wondering if this is hereditary? She is a smoker age 61.
Avatar m tn My mother and grandmother both have palps and are both on medication neither says they have fainted or felt dizzy. I dont know if maybe we have the cpvt gene or long qt gene but none of them have ever went into cardiac arrest or fainted including my moms sister who has no symptoms at all im a mess ive been checked by a cardiologist and electrologist or w.e its called.
Avatar f tn let me give it a try , when tested at a place like labcorp and taken a elisa antibody test what is the procedure of testing, meaning what if my test screwed up or something like that?? ya I no its just driven by anxiety But oh well, also does anyone know what gene ation test I did take???
Avatar m tn s said the scientists altered a gene in HIV to create stHIV-1. How can we be sure that people have not altered HIV like those scientists? meaning new undetectable forms of HIV can be formed by altering HIV gene. Will all altered forms of HIV ( any virus that destructs the human immune system ) test positive on the standard HIV antibody test?
Avatar f tn Another member of the Friday night dart club?? ;o) Being nervous about all the unknowns is very normal. Once you begin your focus will shift and the anxiety won't be much of an issue. Try not to worry too much. Best of luck and keep us posted.
Avatar n tn I agree that, benign thyroid nodules are rarely removed, because of size and the wait and see protocol would be the norm, unless the nodule is causing symptoms, such as swallowing/breathing issues. Do be aware that anxiety can cause symptoms that feel like swallowing problems, as well. If you're on a thyroid hormone replacement, chances are the nodule will shrink over time, eliminating the need for surgery.
Avatar f tn Genetic testing is very simple. It is just a blood test that shows if you have the gene for breast cancer. Just because you have the gene does not mean that you will definetly get breast cancer. My mother has had BC twice at an early age. I recently found out that I have 3 intramammary lymph nodes that they are watching. The surgeon discussed with me about having genetic counseling. Here is his thoughts on it. If the test comes back positive for the gene what would you want done?
Avatar f tn Anyway it takes so much will power to wean, and I think I cut to much at once, I cut out one dose which would be a little over 30 mg of the hydo per day. I already have loads of anxiety and wake up with a terrible stomach ache every morning!!! I started all my extra vitimans etc today so hopefully that will help. My biggest concern is going into a deep depression cause I have been prone to those in the past!! And MOST of all, does the desire to have that Euphoric feeling ever go away???
Avatar f tn This protein is encoded by the ABCB1 gene, non-responders often have a genetic mutation in this gene which can greatly modulate the concentration of several antidepressant that are substrate of Pgp. This genetic mutation is often responsible of the non-responding effect of several antidepressants. Unfortunately not a lot of doctor are aware of this and they goes trials and errors before trying Prozac which is, like I said, not a substrate of Pgp.
Avatar f tn 98% of Ovarian cysts are benign. If you do not have BRCA gene you have a 1.4% of getting ovarian cancer in your lifetime. They would send you to a gyn/oncologist if they thought it might be cancer. The younger you are the less likely it is cancer.
422104 tn?1209763904 Hi Forum Friends! Well I just HAVE to share this one! Some of you already know of the neuro I saw within the practice I work for who told me you had to have 9 lesions to have MS. Went to her today to get the results of bloodwork and C & T spine MRI results. Well don't you know the reason for my numbness, leg spasms, loss of balance, etc etc etc is due to an "anxiety/panic gene" I have and I should just take a deep breath when these smyptoms occur and they will disappear!
Avatar m tn Hello - I heard that many people carry many diseases or cancers in their bodies and it just takes a "trigger" to make them active - because everyone is different it's hard to pinpoint what triggers each person. For our daughter I think it was stress & anxiety that triggered crohn's. She still hasn't found the drug that works - a year later.....
233002 tn?1316027966 The drugs work in different ways and the choice of anti-depressant should be based on the type of depression experienced by the patient. (Major Depression, Anxiety Depression, Atypical Depression) Anti-depressant treatment is based on each individual's response to treatment. A med that works for one person may not work for another. It is a trial and error process unfortunately. There is no "magic bullet" when it comes to anti-depressants. Cheers!
Avatar f tn m an idiot and scared myself even more. I went to a doctor and she said I had a severe anxiety disorder and a Vitamin D Deficiency, and well I don't know if that has anything to do with it and I'm also on a medication called Buspirone and I don't know if that has anything to do with it either. I also noticed when I hold things with my left hand It shakes and when i say shake I mean it's such mild shake to where i can do normal things but It's noticeable to me.
