Breastfeeding :: How To Make Baby Latch?

I miss my baby latching on and having that bond. He doesn't open his mouth wide enough and my nipple isn't out enough! At the hospital with help he was able to latch after someone held his head and helped him. But at home I can't get him to do it. I've just been pumping and giving him my milk through a bottle.

Thyroid Disorders :: So Sick During My Periods - Otherwise Fine

I was diagnosed with postpartum thyroiditis about 18 months ago. I have had it under control for over a year now except for 2 days out of every month. The first couple of days of my period. Every time I see a medical professional or talk to someone about it, they act like I'm crazy because I am too young to have these problems. Every month I am extra tired, moody and nauseous. I also get dizzy, disoriented, hot and cold, sweating, heart rate increases and when I'm hot it feels like my thyroid is pushing on my airway. I go to the hospital but they send me home cuz my oxygen is at 97%. Which is the lower side of being normal. And they are say it's impossible for my period to affect my thyroid like that. Am I crazy or are they not caring cuz of my age?

Vasectomy :: Right Side Is Fine, Little Swelling On The Left

34 years male, had a vasectomy a week ago, the left side was quite painful during the op to the point it made me loudly say OW during the procedure. They gave more anaesthetic and carried on. The right side, no issue or pain.

A week on and I am still finding the left side rather painful, there is small swelling above the testicle and its still sore to touch, and aches, especially if i have been on my feet for a bit, which will cause pain when i walk too. I know timescales for healing is different for everyone, but I was hoping that by now I would not feel restricted on my daily activities. I have been fortunate that I have been on leave from work and due back in friday, I have an active job, and really not sure how i will cope with being on my feet for hours and possibly taking a knock to my testicles.

Just wondering really what others experiences are to do with recovery.

Angina ? Been Fine On Ranexa For Year, Symptoms Now Coming Back

I have been dealing with angina for a year now and it has been controlled with medication called Ranexa, but over the past three weeks my systems have came back and they are severe and more often! I have to keep nitro with me at all times now cause I am have at least four to five attacks a day. I am scared to drive due to this. There has been no change in my medication so I do not understand what's going on. I contacted my heart dr and all he said was I needed to exercise more. I mean I get that and I'm not a lot over weight but I could lose five to ten pounds. So does anyone have any suggestions? I'm afraid I'm going to die of a heart attack cause the pain is going down my arm and now sometimes up my neck and jaw!

Fibromyalgia And Effective Exercise That Doesn't Hurt

I was diagnosed a year ago. I had tiredness and pain long before and then one day it hit me exercising! I collapsed in a heap and realised I couldn't move. My body just gave up. Or my muscles did! I was very fit and healthy. Loved cardiovascular exercise. I did high impact everyday. Until that moment. That's when my life changed. I slept and slept last year away. As soon as I wake the heavy ache in my body is back.

I have tried all types of exercise since. Yoga, swimming, walking....desperate to lose the stone and a half that just piled on. Anything I try just puts me in to a flare up. I've had to go on to a very low calorie diet which has cut out bread and sugar to control weight gain that way. I know weight gain isn't the be all and end all and im thankful I have my life. It's just that I feel so hopeless my body is constantly attacking me.

Does anyone else have this constant battle with exercise and if you've mastered the control with exercise, please please tell me. Or any solution? I just want a bit of the old me back. I miss not being able to help myself. Positive thinking only gets me so far.

What If Occipital Nerve Stimulator Doesn't Work

If anyone else has had an Occipital Nerve Stimulator fitted and if it was a success. I had it fitted in March 2014 and had to have the wires adjusted as they were causing problems in my neck and not helping my migraines. I had about 5 week of some relief and my medication intake did reduce. However, in September of this year. I felt the machine stop working and had no sensation from it on one side of my head. Over the past week I am no longer able to bend my head over or reach my arms out without getting pain and a pulling sensation at the back of my neck. I have been sent for X-rays this week and am now waiting for the whole procedure carrying out again. I had high hope's on this operation helping. I understand it's not a cure, but I just need help with reducing the severity of my daily headaches/migraines. Has anyone else had equipment failure?
