  1. what it is that for about the last 10 month i can have a conversation with somebody and then the next minute i get angry i am crying a lot and also got a eating disorder and a lot of people are starting to notice when it happens and if you have got any advice for me please.
  2. I am an 18 year old girl. I started sweating excessively in the plantar, palmar, and axillary regions when I was about 14. I sweat uncontrollably during the day, even when I’m relaxed. At night time however my sweating decreases dramatically and becomes normal. My skin is also reddish, marbley, and cold during the day too, but at night it gets warm and returns to it’s normal color. I also don’t sweat much when I exercise or when its cold outside .My doctor gave me a prescription for 20% aluminum chloride solution but it didn’t really help.. What could possibly be the cause of the excessive sweatiness throughout the day and the normalcy at night? What can I do to make it stop?
  3. Lately it feels like my nerves have been jumping a lot and my hands tighten up and get stiff. This has been happening with my hands since I was young but now its more frequent. I’m wondering if its triggered by excitement. Do you have any idea what this could be?
  4. I recently tried to stop smoking but when I did I started getting this burning sensation throughout my entire body and could not sleep so I thought it was because I was trying to quit but I started smoking again and stil have the burning sensation. I also recently stopped taking my phentermine diet pills at the same time. Is either of these two situations the cause of my discomfort? It continues throughout the day in my hands and feet. This has only been going on since Monday of last week.
  5. I am 59 yrs old and had an accident about 10 yrs ago and developed ringing in my ears since then. I asked my doctor about this and he had no answer (actually said I should answer the door if it rings, Ha) Is there any herb or any solutions to get rid of this constant ringing. Help

Sometimes people ask me what this person just told me, and I have quite some difficulties answering … because it takes me a long time to remember. And sometimes I remember things that happened to me, but I can’t remember who the person involved was. And it seems that it’s since I started taking it that I forget things. Sometimes I tend to mix my dreams with reality, it take me some times to realize that this event didn’t happen. And also, a bizarre event happened last week or two weeks ago: I slept in a car while it was almost -30 degrees Celsius outside. During that time, I had some very bizarre lucid dreams. I felt the cold, and was dreaming at the same time. (Only slept for about 1 hour). And I never got any kind of cold or hypothermia after. What do I have? I.N.: I take a daily Concerta medication. And I am a severe dyslexic

From the question, it appears that you are experiencing memory problems and hallucinations after taking Concerta (Methylphenidate). Concerta is also marketed as Ritalin and is used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, narcolepsy, and other developmental disorders. It functions by increasing the levels of dopamine and norepinephrine in the brain by prevent their re-uptake in neurotransmitter junctions. Concerta has a number of side effects, some of which affect the brain and are serious.

Although memory problems are not a known side effect of Concerta, patients who experience hallucinations should seek immediate medical attention from their primary care physician, psychiatrist, or the primary prescriber of the medication as it could be a sign of an underlying psychiatric disorder.

Your reported history of memory disturbances, decreased concentration, bizarre lucid dreams, and decreased sleep is suspicious for an underlying psychiatric disorder such as bipolar disorder or possibly schizophrenia. You should be evaluated by your primary care physician, psychiatrist, or primary prescriber of the Concerta and especially if you have a family history of psychiatric disorders such as bipolar disorder or schizophrenia.
