Question by Jul: Does anyone know if a person can get medical insurance after going through drug rehab?
My son went through drug rehab one year ago and is doing great. He has not relapsed at all and has set some quality goals for his life and is pursuing them. He is only 21 years old and is currently in vocational training and cannot afford his own medical insurance at this point in time, but I would like to provide that for him. Does anyone know if he’s eligible since he has a history of drug abuse?

Question by 22butterfly22: Boyfriend of 4 years throwing me through a roller coster, please help!?
So here is the scenario:
10 months ago my boyfriend (24 years old) and I (24 years old) broke up because he cheated on me and he decided to stay with that girl. We reconnected 4 months later and have been together ever since.
Things were great in the first few months, he was changing the way he used to be (he used to flake on me, accuse me of cheating and be verbally abusive). I haven’t been happier with him or loved him more. This month is the sixth month of being together and all of sudden things are starting to change.
Last weekend he flaked on me to go to his friends, left me at his house until 1 in the morning. Of course he had a huge apology and a excuse. I forgave him because he promised he wasn’t gonna be that person anymore, he said he just slipped. Okay fine. But this weekend it all changed again.
Friday he freaked out because I didn’t want to take him to narcotics anonymous meeting (he is a recovering drug and alcohol user). The plan was to just go to the movies with his friends, but all of a sudden he wants to go to a meeting. I fully support his recovery and always have, but I just wasn’t in the mood. The issue is that he has no car and no license so I have to take him everywhere.
Anyways, once I said I was set on not going he flipped out. He told me how I never want to hang out with his friends (totally untrue) and that it’s really hard to be with me (I give him rides everywhere, have helped him out more than anyone ever has and love him so much). I was shocked that he would react like this over not getting his way. And then it got worse he told me he wants to break up. Hours later though it turned out to just be a threat, but my trust and respect for him totally disappeared. I forgave him later the next day.
During the next day we kept distance from each other, but he said we would hang out and do whatever I wanted. Well that never happened because he went with his friends and didn’t call me till 9:15pm. Then he was inviting me over to his friends house where I thought the plan was just gonna be me and him. That turned into a huge fight because he flips out within seconds over nothing.
So I come over to his house and he gets into my car. The minute he sits down he says, “why does you car smell different, what is that weird smell??” And he sits there and sniffs around like a dog for like a minute. He was implying that I may have had a guy in my car even though he didn’t say it. I was mortified and just sickened. I have never ever cheated on him and for him to even have the audacity to do that was horrible.
I couldn’t speak to him the whole night, I didn’t even want him touching me. He tried to apologize and told me the reason he did that was because since he was being such a bad boyfriend lately, he thought maybe I would go find another guy. I can’t stand it.
All I keep thinking is I need to break up with him, but we have broken up so many times and each time I have come back. I mean I even came back when he cheated, so what’s the point in ending it. I just can’t seem to leave. Please help me, I really have no one to talk to about this right now.
Thank you so much for even reading.

I know it’s hard not being able to talk to someone, especially your boyfriend when he’s supposed to be your best friend. It seems like he is just turning the situation around and trying to make you feel bad for the wrong things he is doing, which guys tend to do. Maybe when a fight happens, and he decides to “leave” you just need to stop trying to contact him, and let him come back to you. Let him be scared of losing something great he has. I know it may be hard to do, because you obviously care for him a lot if you’re doing all these things for him. He just needs to mature.

Question by Leslie H: Why do Morphine, Dilaudid, Demerol, etc. given through an IV all give me a TERRIBLE stomach pain?
I have had three surgeries in about as many months. While waking up from my first surgery I had just been given Dilaudid! It felt like somebody kicked me in the stomach for nearly two hours! It hurt SO badly! It finally went away. Then they had the brilliant idea to give me Demerol. It did the exact same thing! Finally, I told them that I’d rather deal with the surgical pain then have them induce more pain upon me! Well, last week I had a surgery where I was supposed to be kept awake (Cardiac Ablation). When the nurse came in, he told me that they would be given me Dilaudid and Versed to sedate me the entire time! I totally freaked out! I told him what Dilaudid did to me the last time it was given to me and that Versed never does ANYTHING for me since I am already on 4 mg. of Klonopin a day which is in the same category of drug. So, basically, they had no option other than to have anesthesia come in and give me Propophol and I can tell you one thing……I don’t remember a thing after that. As they were waking me up after the surgery, I was in pain and they gave me Fentanyl. It worked like a charm except for some severe itching. I was given some IV Benadryl and I was fine. Anyway, while I was in recovery for 6 hours, I was very sore, so I asked for some pain medication. I told them about my reaction to Dilaudid and that the Fentanyl worked wonders for me a few hours ago, but they decided to give me Morphine and WHAM! The stomach pain hit me like a ton of bricks! Luckily, they had Narcan right there just in case I had a bad reaction and it counteracted the effects of the Morphine immediately! My question is: Why do Narcotic IV pain relievers make me have this reaction? I have had the pain relievers in previous surgeries and they did not do this to me. Why are they giving me this reaction now? Also, what makes me itch so badly after given IV narcotics?

I obviously can’t tell you exactly why this happens to you but for me, I found every time I had surgery I had a terrible reaction to the anesthetics and pain killers. Coming out of the meds was always terrible as well. Morphine made me very nauseous so they would give me a shot of gravol in my thigh but all that did was make me sick AND tired. Finally when I had my UTI they gave me morphine and I started puking everywhere.. I felt awful. I decided from then on to just tell the hospital I was allergic to morphine and not give it to me again. From then on they’ve given me Codein and I’ve had 0 problems. I can say though, those are all drugs that are VERY harsh on the system. Even codein will make me sick if it’s on an empty stomach.

I recently found out my fiance has a “dark secret” he’s been keeping for about 4 or 5 years. Apparently he’s been ‘addicted’ to porn for several years before this which I could have handled but its evolved into finding women on the internet (possibly prostitutes, I’m not sure) he contacts them and sets times to meet with them and he talks money with them. I know he’s given his phone number to them but says they don’t call.
His analogy of this is its like planning a bank robbery, getting every bit of detail til the very end and when your supposed to rob the bank you don’t go.
He also says its not a sexual thing. It sounds to me like an adreneline rush. I would like to hear from people who have experienced things like this or as close to possible. I guess I just want to know what goes on in his mind. There’s so much more I’m sure I’ll add more detail soon

im starting a new, giving up alcohol. i knew i had a problem but never addressed it. i told myself i could kick the habit on my own, without any ones help. it’s been 5 years since my dui. 2 1/2 years since it ruined my relationship with my ex. and a week since it almost tore the one man that loved me unconditionally out of my life. i admit i need help. i have a meeting with a counselor in a week. im seeking the correct methods to breaking an addiction. im seeking peace, love and happiness.
when i drink i become an evil devil girl and i don’t give a flying fuck about anyone or anything. how do i get like that you say? i drink fast, really really fast. and i don’t stop either. not knowing your limits mixed with a belligerent-foul mouth & attitude is not pretty. i am ashamed of myself and i don’t ever want another “episode” ever again. from this day forth, i go sober. and i never look back.
any one in a similar situation as myself? please i’d like to hear about it. thoughts? are personal transformations for the greater human being possible? what did you do to be a better person?

I understand the requirement for VR and E and that the VA only deals with flight training after Private Pilot. In everything I have read so far there is nothing that says no flight training. The VA also doesn’t reply to my e-mails, like this is a secret that they don’t want out? What is up with VR and E and flight training?
