Yes I wanted to get back to you right away cuz I know what that feeling is like. Actually before my husband and I went shopping this afternoon I took a xanax. I only took l/2 of the smallest dose. I only take it about 3-4 days in a row because my hormones get really messed up. Like last night my hus...

Debbi, Listen to Cornflower. She's a great cheerleader. Maybe you're getting all your anxiety out now so you'll be fine when the trip comes. Often that happens to me.

Hi Debbie, Trust me, you are not cracking up. Have you ever taken xanax or the generic name alprazaloam? I think that would help take the edge off. You would think your Dr. would realize besides sinus it's also anxiety. How often do you do the relaxation tape? Try doing it 3X a day. Also read on the...

Mr C, That's better to hear your bday wasn't as bad as you thought. About your year, you can change that anytime you want by changing to positive thoughts and words instead of negative. Why not end the year on a happy note?? I know you can do it!! :)

Yes everyone is affected with aches and pains as they get older and the worry of a heart attack or other issues may send them to ER. I went about a month ago. I had heavy chest pain for days then pain down one arm then another. As I was in ER (because my husband tried and I didn't listen then a frie...
