As the other people answered, you may just be ovulating. Another name for mid-cycle pain used by doctors is  Mittelschmerz, (a German word which translated literally means "middle pain.") Mid-cycle cramps  last for 6 to 8 hours in most women ; however, occasionally it can last as long as twenty-four to forty-eight hours and occurs about two weeks after the first day of your last period. Every woman is different. Depending on the severity and frequency, you may want to read about and ask your doctor about Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS).

Myalgic Encephalomyelitis is roughly the same as CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome).  I haven't been diagnosed, but I do suffer from chronic fatigue associated with multiple sclerosis.  It is far greater than just being "tired" all of the time!  I have tried Provigil, but hated it.  Legal cocaine is all it is.  Now I'm taking Amantadine.  I haven't been on it long enough to tell if it really works.

Middle age is usually when you have "peaked" and you have made it.  I havent got that far yet.  Looking forward to hitting middle age at around 55...because I plan to live until 110.

ME comes under the broad heading of CFS which includes PVFS (Post Viral Fatigue Syndrome) and others. I think Glandular Fever (mononeucleosis) also comes under the heading of CFS as well. ME stands for Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, CFS stands for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. I hope this helps! :-)

No.\n\nA midpoint is the direct middle of two points.\n\nMany segments can be connected. These connected segments will have a midpoint that will differ from the midpoints of the individual segments but... yeah... the answer is NO.

A person is not COPD, a person may HAVE COPD. The way the paramed stated it is just the way we talk. It stands for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.  This covers a group of progressive & irreversible conditions that includes asthma, chronic bronchiectasis, chronic bronchitis and emphysema.  COPD is also sometimes called chronic obstructive lung disease.

Depression doesn't directly come from having diabetes, but it is more likely to have depression with a chronic disease like diabetes and having to eat differently and deal with the disease.

Depends on the severity, and whether or not you need medication for it.  In most cases, no, its a PDQ, though.  Can't have a flare up in the middle of the field with nothing available to treat it with.

COPD...Chronic Obsrtuctiive Pulmonary Disease...."Chronic" is the descriptive word of note.  This is a progressive disease that begins before we know it.  By the time it is diagnosed, there is some permanent, irreversible damage, so no, there is no cure.  There are somethings to do that can help slow down the progression of COPD...quit smoking if you are smoking.  Make sure you see a doctor when a respiratory infection begins, not days later when you are really sick...this delay can cause further damage to the lungs.  Eat small, frequent healthy meals and snacks...good nutrition is the body's defense against illness.  Good air humidification and drinking water, juices,,,,this is a good respiratory track defense.  Exercise at your body's pace...steady, not hurried. You can get more accomplished without overtaxing your system if you find your own optimal pace and work at it. These are natural things that can and should be done, but if you need extra help with medications...use them. The combination of natural and medical can give a better quality to your everyday living and quality of life is important to each of us.
