1061306 tn?1254664568 ya know,,,this is good. I've always dealt with adversity using humor. I won't go into the sometimes crass and irreverent humor we would use on the ambulance in order to decompress.

However,,I know it will be a while (read: never) before I fess up to my immediate family.
10175413 tn?1427170251 There's this old priest who got sick of all the people in his parish who kept confessing to adultery. One Sunday, in the pulpit, he said, "if I hear one more person confess to adultery, I'll quit!" Well, everyone liked him, so they came up with a code word.

This will totally pass.... A few days ago you were feelin so good and were full of energy ..... It can't be like that everyday ....
4152590 tn?1350772856 I had a bad night last night. First, I had to sit through a 5 hour meeting yesterday and developed what i think is sciatic nerve pain down my left buttock and leg. I've had this kind of pain before and don't think it's MS related. Then, last night, I was working on an important document on my computer and lost it. Needless to say, I was very upset. It was late, so I just called it a night.

5538989 tn?1514398453 The past month and a half has been the most stressful time of my life since the weeks leading up to the ON that led to my DX. I am completely concerned with the amount of stress I am currently under as I completely respect the implications of it all. I lost my father very suddenly the day before Valentines Day. In addition to handling my mom's affairs an hour away, I am also working 6 days a week, parenting a 1 year old and have a husband in college.
Avatar n tn Is there a drug that I can use to reduce my stress levels while trying to conceive and taking fertility medifcine? I have this theory - my periods started being irregular in my final school year when I was 18 - and the year was very stressful. The dr then said I will have problem trying to conceive - which was true until I fell pregnant with my son without trying to conceive(a very stress free period in my life). That was 6 years ago - and no lucky surprises since then.
Avatar f tn s own and they sent me home but told me I needed to follow up with my doctor, which I did. I have had all of the tests, i.e. stress test, echo, ekg and they are all fine but my blood pressure still would not normalize. Now I am highly stressed and trying SO hard to reduce my stress levels but because my pressure keeps fluctuating it is becoming almost impossible to not worry. As soon as I SEE a bp machine I almost go into a panic!

In addition I have mild plaque in both carotid arteries.

Avatar m tn This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine. (4) Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It! (5) Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing.
