On one hand, I’m pissed off at my mom. (please read: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AgCsiKdMW7PIH6runcpDUrXsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20100405130452AAH6P1g)
She yells at me all the time even though I do so much to not stress her out…I convinced her to kick out my abusive dad (I almost committed suicide because of that prick and he used to slip harmful food to my disabled sister who has PKU). She said that none of the turmoil in our house would go away just because my dad leaves…that it’s "everyone’s" fault that we’re so unhappy. But really she just mean it’s mine and my brother’s fault. Well, my brother really is selfish and mean. He’d rather spend time with his girlfriend than help with my sister while I’m in the hospital for my PCOS. But I deal with all my teachers and school affairs (I’m home schooled), I deal with all my doctors appointments and attend them by myself since my mom works full time, I babysit my sister and will drop ALL my plans at a moment’s notice if I’m needed around the house. One time my mom wanted to go out of state for the weekend to attend a meeting with some doctors in order to find a cure for my sister’s rare illness. The meeting happened to occur on the same day as my theatre school class (which I love and am paying 0 for). I didn’t complain one bit when she said I’d have to babysit. I just told her to tell me when the plans were finalized so I could call and let the school know that I wasn’t going (they ended up canceling because the person who was supposed to drive my mom there got sick with the flu). But lately I’ve been sick so I don’t even have the drive to watch my sister correctly or do my chores. I leave my clothes all over the house not because I want to be lazy, but because my room is on the third floor and every time I walk up there I feel like I’m gonna die (I have ovarian cysts and they hurt when I exercise at all). The house often smells like cat piss because I keep the litter box in my room so I don’t forget to clean it but lately I’ve been sleeping on the second floor close to the bathroom…And no one even bothers to help me out by cleaning the litter box or washing the dishes for me (well my mom washes dishes for me sometimes).
I mean, in her defense, I KNOW it’s stressful trying to find the cure for a rare disorder all while trying to feed and clothe a family of four. She often has to argue down the bill collectors and whatnot because they try to screw her over and stuff. Plus she has to raise my pain-in-the-a** brother who skips school, doesn’t do any chores without complaining about it first, and spends all his time outside with his girlfriend.Typical sixteen year old boy.
But jeez, I’m already going on seventeen and I don’t have any social life except the bunch of twelve and thirteen year old kids in my theatre class. I don’t like asking mom for money but I can’t get a job at the moment with my illness. I don’t really have a problem with my chores. Really. I don’t mind babysitting or anything, but I just hate when she calls me self centered or selfish! It just pisses me off so much for some reason! Usually I’ll just brush it off because I know she’s scared for my sister and stressed out (her health isn’t that great either) but lately I just feel so swamped. And I can’t just up and leave because of how compromised my sister is and because we recently fired our nurse because she was secretly smoking in our bathroom (the neighbors caught her and told us about it). Still, I just feel like I want to get away, by myself, or with some good friends (too bad I haven’t had a single friend for the past four years). Sometimes I imagine myself in a huge condo with a friendly dog somewhere in a city that’s alive with interesting people and lots of places to go to and see…without my family there. And I feel so guilty for it. On the other hand, I feel like I have my own problems to deal with…for instance my PCOS requires me to take all kinds of hormone pills and they cause me to gain weight. I’m already 90lbs overweight, can’t help but sleep all the time, and I feel disgusting. I can’t even practice musical theatre or dance for exercise like I used to because of these damn cysts. I just feel like I don’t like having all these problems AND having her yell in my face too. But at the same time I know she has problems as well…How do I sort out these insane feelings?!
And talking to her NEVER works…she just convinces me to see her way as the "right way" sooner or later because when I try to voice or write my opinions, I always lose track of what I was thinking and end up not having a valid argument…Probably a result of my dad’s mental abuse and the fact that I can never keep track of my thoughts but that’s how it is.
What can I do?!
Heh…Family outings and fun things just seem like chores around here. Just recently we had a "spring celebration" and I was excited and wanted to invite my brother’s friends for company. Well my brother pissed off my mom because he didn’t feed the birds (one of his THREE chores) and my mom got pissed at me in the end because I was excited her and kinda planning and bugging her about the whole thing. In the end, I ended up decorating the cake by myself and was the only one who took a slice from it and ate it alone. I know it sounds like some sad story…I d’know…I just kind of got used to that kind of thing so it didn’t bother me. I just know not to ask to do fun things with my family. I always end up being the only one participating.
Thanks guys, especially Jimbob. Whenever I begin to remember that people have it worse than me, I learn to get over myself. Even though I realize that my problems are my own, I still know that it COULD be worse…
Sorry about your wife, house, and kids, Jimbob. You’re obviously the victim here, not your wife. Those attorneys should be punished somehow…disbarred or something…But damn…the judicial system is so crooked. It has been from the start. Anyway, I’m really sorry to hear about your misfortunes, even though I know sympathy doesn’t change much in the actual situation. I hope you find your happiness.

What can I do?!
I have been diagnosed poly cystic ovarian syndrome now. I’m 17 years old and have missed 3 period cycles. I’m obese (75 kg) but doing exercise regularly. For 5 years my cycle was quite normal.My sister(8 yrs older than me) also has PCOS.
I want to know if there is a permanent cure for this PCOS or is it recurring?
What further steps do i have to take?

Almost 5 years ago I embarked upon the nightmare of Ovarian Cancer.
It starts out with no real symptoms, a general feeling of "unwellness" sometimes bloating in the abdomen and yet you lose weight, sometimes bleeding, sometimes fluid leakage… and by the time you get the diagnosis you are stage 3, and you have a brick wall waiting for you. I am in a very long remission period, I was told 29 months to live…
there is a simple test, a blood test, called a CA125. it costs less than a hundred dollars if you pay for it yourself. If it is elevated, that is a good sign you may have this horrible disease, at a point where it is easy to cure. A history of cervical, ovarian, or other such cancer is often enough that insurance will pay for it… and if you call and ask for it, often they will agree to cover it… Please, get a CA125 blood test done every year along with the gynocological exam… save a life! YOURS…
I have far surpassed what the Doctors said I could do… now I am aiminag for seeing my grandkids get marrried… please do ask about this test, I think it should be as common as a pap smear.
Hi,
I was detected with ectopic pregnancy , as the doctors couldnt find fetus they had done an emergency surgical procedure and removed hemorrhagic cyst which was causing acute pelvic pain (left ovary)
after 2 DAYs and another ultrasound later, they still couldn’t find a fetus and advised me that I take a shot of methotrexate to dissolve pregnancy.
It’s been 3 weeks now, and I have suffered from chest pains, vomitting etc etc..but the thing that is bothering me the most is that I still have acute pelvin pain and the pain is shooting through my left leg. The pain increases and it is worst at night. (even painkillers dont help. 
)
I have repeatedly asked my doctor about this and they seem to be convinced that it could be due to bruising during surgery or blood clot
I have couple of questions, and I will appreciate if you have any knowledge or prior experience and can guide me
1. is this kind of pain normal? if yes, will it go away after few weeks/,months?
2. are there any time of exercise that i should do to get rid of these pains
3. if it is indeed due to blood clotting is there anyway it can be cured
4. should i check with my doctor again, and are there any other type of test i should request them to do?
