I am a 26 year old female who has ADHD and OCD. I have been prescribed adderall for almost 10 years now and I love it. Over the course of time we have has to up my dosage due to it wearing off too quickly. My current dosage is 30mg BID. Recently I have noticed that my ADHD has really gotten out of hand. I cannot think straight. I am forgetting thoughts mid sentence, starting tasks and getting distracted leaving SO many things unfinished. The list could go on but these things have left me very anxious and chaotic. I need to get back to being able to think about what I need to do and actually be able to do it instead of getting overwhelmed. I don’t want to come off adderall but was wondering if anything could be added with and be taken together? Just trying to get more information before bringing this up to my PCP who does not know a lot about treating ADHD. I don’t have good insurance and my pediatrician was originally the one who put me on adderall. My PCP now just continues to write my prescription because I was already on it when I became her patient and it has worked fine all this time. Any advice would be very much appreciated. Thank you

I just got a call from my GI office that my blood work showed inflammation. I have had Crohn’s disease for 12 years. I haven’t had a flare up in 7 years until just recently. I am taking azathioprine and they upped my dose, they also want me to start taking Entocort. I do not want to take Entocort, because I do not want to gain weight but most importantly I do not want a huge face or acne. Can crohns inflammation be healed without a steroid? Thank you
29 yr old female, lost some hearing (at about 40%) in my left ear during or shortly after cancer treatment at age 15. When I pop my ears by plugging my nose, it gets better but doesn’t last more than an hour or so. Usually less. Every doctor since that I’ve told says “oh that’s a Eustachian tube malfunction” but gives me NO other info. Recently read that over time this can become permanent. Is there ANY treatment options? Any idea what exactly I’m dealing with?

As of my last test showed that it had not come up after few weeks .Yes I have been under stress because of problem my grandson has ad and he lives with me but is 41 years old and had not lived with me until a couple years ago, His Mother died , he lost hi job and couldnt find more work in our little town he came to live with me I had cancer once unidentified but took radition . blood test did not show any cancer markers> I do have small lumps under my skin , legs and arms but the Dr. did not think much about that.

Hi,
I am 26 years old and on October16 i have beed diagnosed with PCOS, after trying sporadically to get pregnant since me and my fiance are not living together.
My doctor didn’t put me in any medication saying that i will need a medication only after being a year of trying. I’ve changed my doctor and and she put mi on dikirogen to take it for 6 months and after 4 months i should go and check my ovulation. I did the glycemia and insulinemia and the insulin resistence was (HOMA-IR) 1.9. I think i am a thin type of PCOS case.
I would need some advice by a specialist if i am in a right way of taking this suplement or i should ad another medicine. My ovaries are biger than normal, right ovary is 47 and left 45

Do I require surgery ?
40, male. I had CTS surgery on Feb 3 and the numbness in my thumb, index and middle finger is no different than before surgery. At follow up, doc says not to worry and be patient but I’m frustrated at seeing no change. The CTS was diagnosed both via clinical exam and EMG test. Is it normal to have no change? At what point should I start to be concerned with the lack of results? Thank you.
