Has anyone heard of PTLS (Post Tubal Ligation Syndrome)?
Since my daughter was born 2 years ago, I have had an array of symptoms including exhaustion, mood swings, weight gain, breast tenderness, painful menstruation and cramps, anxiety, night sweats and headaches (I never had any of these prior).

Started Smoking Again!
After 4 years of not smoking (ok, smoked occasionally when out with friends), I have been smoking on and off for the last week. I really need to stop before it gets bad. I need help! Stress is getting to me and it's so hard to refrain. Ugh.

Anxiety and Head tingling anyone?
I get the worst anxiety around that time of the month and a few days after. I also get neck and shoulder achiness and head tingling that is scary. I have had every test known to man and it only makes sense that it is related to my out of sync hormones. Does anyone else have this?

My NSV!
I am so excited. I have been down because I haven't been losing weight as quickly as I want to. But, I have been taking my blood pressure and heart rate for 2 weeks 3 times daily and they have lowered considerably! A month ago, I had several readings of 154/90 with a resting heart rate of around 90. Now, my blood pressure…

Advice for Starting Again
I haven't been eating Paleo for the last month and a half and I feel awful. Any advice you can give me so that I don't get carb sickness from detoxing would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone on Prozac for anxiety?
I just started Prozac (10mg) and am hoping it will work. Took Zoloft before and I had a lot of side effects. Keep reading all those awful articles about people going crazy while taking it. Any thoughts or experience would be really helpful.

How I broke my weight loss stall...
I have seen a few people who have had a weight loss stall after a while on paleo and I had one during the last few weeks. So, for the last few days, I haven't eaten breakfast and cut out most nuts and fruit and I lost a pound. So, I guess intermittent fasting and lowering fruit and nut content really helped. Let me know if…

Raisins Or No Raisins?
I have been eating raisins for potassium which I have been a little low on. But I was recently told that raisins aren't paleo. I did look it up and get conflicting responses. I don't gourge on them and buy organic natural raisins. What do you think?

Anxiety/panic disorder please help...:-(
When I had my daughter two years ago, I had a tubal ligation. I have had pretty severe panic and anxiety attacks ever since. In the past 2 years I have been in and out of the ER several times wondering if I was dying or if something was really wrong. I have had mri's, ekg's, chest scans, heart cat scans....everything. My…

People with crazy Moms...
To make a story short...my husband got a job closer to my parents and siblings, so we had to move in a hurry and have to stay with my parents until we find a house. I knew it would be challenging since my mom is bi polar. However, my mom has gotten worse as she has gotten older and she is angry all the time. I have three…

Zoloft and Side Effects
I recently was put on Zoloft for anxiety starting out at 25 mg and now am on 50 mg. I have several side effects.
