Welcome artic wolf, I like your name! Everyone has given good advice, I would only add try to incorporate daily cardio exercise...it helps with EVERYTHING, in my opinion. Big hugs, hope you find us to be helpful to you in your journey of optimizing physical, mental and emotional health!

Pennsha, right now, just breathe. Right now, you're ok, you are. This is shocking, I understand. Many of us have gone through it. The first is the worst. Your age is a HUGE benefit. Incredible, ground breaking science is imminent, I really believe that. Stress and anxiety over your father's death ca...

Stavia, I agree on the angiogram...why in the world any insurance carrier would deny a patient with 82% calcium score is beyond me. My husband's brother who lives in Miami pays $1,500 every other year for an angiogram, which sounds like a reasonable price for his peace of mind... Regarding the pills...

Alysson...couple of comments....good for you on the adoption! You're certainly experienced in dog therapy. I think it's a tossup between addressing emotional dog issues and physical dog issues...all of the above stresses me out because I love my fur babies SOOOO much. I think you guys are doing a ve...
