Hypochondria with a terminal case of can't spellitus\n\nI just read your other question concerning your heart problem. Hyperventilation, palpitations, numbness in the are & I would bet your hands go numb & cold. They also probably curl up & cramp. You are most likly having a severe anxiety attack. The hyperventilation causes the numbness & anxiety atacks often mimick heart atacks.\n\nLet me know if I guess right about the symptoms you did not list...just curious.\n\nOK...read some more of your posts & decided that I was right to start with. You are an ID**T.

There could be many causes of such symptoms. The most important thing is that you SEE A DOCTOR!

Sometimes yes and sometimes no. For me its a little different each month. One time my symptoms change a lot and my grandmother told me that can happen if you have had an emotional change. I almost always have a back ache and every now and then I will get a temperature. I had a slight temp. earlier and I just got my period a few hours ago. But if this worries you and you think it is abnormal for you maybe you should talk to your doctor. You'll probably be fine though.

The doctor will be able to tell you with a simple blood test.  But it sounds to me like your just stressing over it and that may make these symptoms "new" to you.  You'll feel better tomorrow after you go to the doc.

you know what?you're too little to start having diets of all sorts...your body needs to develop now more than anytime else so let it work normally ...you should start worrying at 18.Till then just have fun with the kids of your age ,do a lot of sports and eat healthy food...get rid of fast food and all the snack stuff!Be wise!

It sounds like several things to me an could be any number of things.\nSo the BEST answer is SEE A DOCTOR !\nThis is not something to be ignored or guessed at, it's something serious and should be look at by a competent person, that being a doctor (GP). who if he doesn't know exactly what it is, can and will take tests or refer you to a specialist.

Hello:\n\nWell, first of all if you are a Male:\n1) Do you have pubic hair?\n2) Do you have acne?\n3) Are you starting to "grow faster"?\n4) Is your voice changing?\n   You answer 2 or more question "yes": YOU ARE IN PUBERTY, thats a great time of your life. You can have and "orgasm" and "cuum" in this age, many times, beacuse we whant to have that experice, the "psicological" pressure to have it "cancels" the entire idea. REALX AND ENJOY... READ A LOT (not play boy magazine, real sites that can give you information), and ask a lot!\n\nIF you are a female:\n1) Are you starting to have pubic hair?\n2) Your breast are starting to grow?\n3) Have you seen changes in the form of your body?\n4) Are you menstruating?\n\nIf you answer yes teh majority, the "womens" body is a little more complecated that "mens". The sexual drive (the feelings of warmth in your private parts and other things) is realy important. Get to know your body, don´t be afraid, explore and learn about it.\n\n        IF... You don´t have "growing" problems, or more question, don´t be afraid to asked them to your doctor, he will have the right answers.

Go speak to your mother/father or caretaker.  They should know that this has started for any future health concerns.  They will be able to point you in th direction of what you should do next.

It could be sooo many things.  I see the picture by your name, and judging by the age of the children (assuming they are yours) you are probably relatively young.  Nonetheless, the problem could be perimenopause, or "early menopause".  For more details, try a google search.  If you have an eating disorder, that could definitely do it.  Pituitary tumors (not necessarily malignant) have been known to disturb the menstrual cycle.  Also, you could try a google search on "amenorrhea" which refers to a person who is not having her period.  While I understand that you are sort of having a period, maybe you will find some clues with such a search.

Hey, I am 14 and trust me, I went through what you are going through right now.  You may be getting some signs, but you really don't know when you are going to get it until you actually do.  Usually a couple of days before you feel sick, crampy, or you have flu-like symptoms.  Don't worry about it, it really isn't bad and don't rush into it to quickly!  You'll have it for another 45+ years!

Sometimes a growth on the pituitary gland, which is in your brain, can cause such symptoms.  It could be many other things, as well. You really need to talk to your doctor and have it checked out.  If you don't have insurance, try Planned Parenthood.  Good luck.

a) it depends on how tall you are\n\nb) you are 12. You're not even done with puberty yet. If you are concerned about your weight, talk to your parents about making you healthier meals, but don't worry about it that much-- as you get older, your body will change, and as long as you exercise and eat right, you'll be fine. I went through a heavy phase from 11 to 13, and then at 14 i suddenly got really skinny without really doing anything-- my body was just ready to drop the 'baby fat'. So, don't worry about what your friends think!!!

Have you had anything within the last six months change your life? Blood and foul smelling bowels are what a doctor would tell you has immediate needs to be seen, if they are dark and tarry, get in to your doc. as soon as you can get off this computer. \nThis is nothing to mess around with. You are too young to just wait until something bad happens that might change your life forever and not in a good way.\nGO SEE YOUR DOCTOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!\nand let us know how you're doing!

Yes you are sick...\nRemember young people see these questions and answers and you need to leave better questions on here and go see your doctor for the private ones...

FIRST THING~ If your doctor won't listen to YOU, get a new one! YOU KNOW when your body is good & when it's not! I refuse to listen to someone who won't listen to me...because they think they know it all since they "went to school for the degree". Well, they didn't go to school & study MY BODY! So, get a new doc, and don't feel bad about it. What if something bad happened to you? Would you hesitate to let that doc know at that point? DON"T LET IT GET THERE!\nI have given several links below to read & perhaps you can read through & understand the different thyroid symptoms & problems.\nHere is some information about myself, plus some symptoms since you seemed to be interested:\nI have low thyroid. I've had it for 10 years. I got it after I had my second child at about the age of 25. If you have low thyroid...here's a great question to answer: Can you see the floor of your house? That was what was asked of me at one point, and to my amazement, the answer was no!\nMy signs are: messy house, no desire to do anything...go anywhere, spend time with my kids or my guy, sleep a lot, hard to keep my eyes open at times, HUGE weight gain that over the past years have not found an easy way to take off...so I give up a lot, I have terribly dry hair & don't wash it a lot so it stays strong, I have bumps on my face...not like pimples, but I think it's from dry skin, and perhaps some others that I can't remember at this time...that's another symptom--forgetfullness.\nHere are the "GENERAL" signs for most people: fatigue and lack of energy. Women suffering from underactive thyroid experience heavier menstrual periods. Sluggishness and forgetfulness are symptoms of underactive thyroid problem. Other symptoms of this thyroid disorder are dry skin and hair and constipation.\nIf you have high thyroid, or an overactive one, the signs are: increased body metabolism. This is followed by weight loss and excessive warmth and sweating. Persons suffering from overactive thyroid experience trembling hands, irritability and rapid heartbeat or palpitations. Women with overactive thyroid or hyperthyroidism may experience shorter or lighter menstrual periods.\nI take medication, and sadly will have to take 1 pill everyday for the rest of my life. There's a blood check that they will do to see if you have low or high. I hope i've helped you!!

Well I suggest calling your doctor first. Then she/he can rule out any thing. You might have to take a blood test.\nBasically all of your medical history and his. Not to mention both familes too.  Good Luck!
