HELP! I Have Kallmann Syndrome and Where Can I Find a Good Doctor?

Question by um….: HELP! I have Kallmann Syndrome and where can I find a good doctor?
I am 22 years old male who has Kallmann Syndrome, a very rare genetic disorder. I have experienced 3 very bad endocrinologists who knew little of my condition or the side effects of the drug they prescribe to me.
For example, the other day I was with my PRIMARY CARE doctor and was going to make another referral, and she asked me if I did any cholesterol tests because people taking testosterone will have higher cholesterol level. Guess what? This is the first time I ever heard of it. Nor did any of them order a test for me.
Also, my mother is studying for medical school (another specialty) and she was reading her book (the general knowledge book that all doctors have to learn) and the book says testosterone has multiple side effects. It didn’t say if you take too much, it is going to have side effects; it says this will have side effects. Guess what these “specialist” say? No, this is perfectly safe. I will be fine with the answer that these side effects are minimum, but their answers show that they knew nothing!!!
So, I am tired of getting bad doctors so can you tell me where/how can I find a good doctor who knew what he/she is doing?

I’m So Depressed. It Is All Piling and I Can’t Bear With It Any Longer.?

Question by CL: I’m so depressed. It is all piling and I can’t bear with it any longer.?
(1) I’m having personal problems with my dance company. I’m in this dance company in school that gives out scholarship to the students. I’m getting 30% of that scholarship. The thing is I think I’m overweight for it. We are more of ballet type of dance. Before someone from our company was removed because she was fat. Our mentor is always reminding me of my weight. By the way, I’m 132 lbs and 5’3″-5’4″ in height. I’m really trying my best in loosing weight but sadly I can’t do crash diet. I have this sickness, I’m not sure what it is exactly, something called like gas pain. I’m not sure because the doctor in the emergency just said it and I was still dizzy in pain. Anyways, the thing is crash diet is a no no to me. But I’m still doing it despite the effects because I really want to get thin. My Mom told me that I’m perfectly fine but hearing that from my Mom I think it is not true. I’m very conscious of my weight and I’m getting all shy when I see my reflection. Because all of my fat goes to my thighs and butt which is ridiculously ugly. Exercise is no good for me as well because I don’t have time for real. I’m a graduating student and work is ridiculously piled up. I’m also worried with the dance company because I don’t want to be kicked out because of my weight. I’m also drinking dietary supplement pills to help me loose weight but I’m very disappointed because instead of loosing weight I’m gaining them! I’m eating yogart and oatmeal like crazy. I’m only drinking warm water as well.

I spent 6 years of my life addicted to those pills. The more you take the more the negative side effects take place. Depression, anxiety, nausea, the shakes etc. Please, please take it from me. Get off of these pills while you can! They will do nothing but ruin your life. Please trust me on this. Good luck and God bless!

Signs of Prescription Drug Abuse?

Question by prncessang228: signs of prescription drug abuse?
I have a 7 year old daughter that I was sharing joint custody of with my ex-husband up until 12-3
of this year.

on that date, my daughter came home stating her father had physically hit her on the back of the head (where she had 3 staples in to close up a cut she received after being pushed by a cousin at her uncle’s house on her dad’s side of the family) b/c he got angry at her for not sticking with a lie he had made up about her being sick so that I would come pick her up from his house instead of him having to take her to school. I currently have temporary full custody of my daughter due to an order of protection being passed. I also called CPS and filed a report.
