Muscle pain, joint pain, cold feet, etc. for six months. What is it?

This "vegetative neurodystonia" that your naturopath diagnosed you with is just a made up term used by only a handful of docs to describe all these varied symptoms that happens to someone after a period of stress. It's just a useless term with no treatment outline or cure. In my six years of research on stress, adrenal fatigue is the most controversial but proper term for your symptoms. Your adrenal glands produce steroids (cortisol) that allow you to adapt to stress. They also control your metabolism and well-being. Once these steroids become depleted due to long lasting/ and or severe stress you get the symptoms you describe above. These steroids are also needed for the thyroid hormones to be able to reach your cells. A typical symptom of both low thyroid and cortisol is an all over aching of the body's muscles and joints. It will almost feel as if the bones are in pain. But don't think that anyone will diagnose you with these conditions because they don't show up on blood tests. You would need to see a select few very, very smart doctors that take into account their patients symptoms and history. P.s. I've been there and had the same symptoms after severe stress and I now take the adrenal steroid (hydrocortisone) and my muscles and joints are back to normal. It's only a small physiological dose which has no negative effects whats so ever.On this dose it is not possible to suffer from any of the side effects from larger doses of steroids. And it just supplements your own adrenal's effort to keep you well and healthy. Doctors are so scared of what they don't know! Good luck

Lupron..........?????????

Not completely sure if Lupron will harm the baby..but do know that feeding mothers have a hard time conceiving...just because the body seems to not want to get pregnant while your feeding.

Why doesn't my mother want to go see Sweeney Todd with me on Christmas day?

She yelled at me when I suggested it and told me I would have to go see it by myself because nobody would want to go see it with me.

What are the psychological effects of watching R rated movies at the age of 5?

I pretty much agree with Sierra11...We of the media generation get much of our perception of morality from movies and TV, I don't care what anyone says. If the media has substituted for "off screen" experiences, those impressions can't help but be ingrained into (especially) a developing mind. Hitler was one of the first to realize the potential of media influence. (Now Rupert Murdoch!) Ah, I'm getting political now, but I do think the argument is valid, though there are always exceptions...

B/f help! PLEEZ!?

my friend, well, x-friend now, is trying 2 steal my boyfriend. she has a whole gang of ppl against us! GRRR! she makes me SOOO mad!

on TV.. is it really all that bad?

on the TV is OK but not very comfortable. on the couch watching TV is probably better. Watching someone having on the TV or the couch is perverted.
