• Open Question: Does 5-HTP really work for sleep?

  I have anxiety and can't sleep at night. I actually think my anxiety is caused by the fact that I can't sleep. I think all day long about how I'm going to have a difficult time sleeping at night. The night rolls around and there I am tossing and turning and not falling asleep. I have tried every over the counter medicine and hate them all because they give you the hang over feeling. My doctors all say it's anxiety related so I went for acupuncture and it works great for how I feel during the day, but I still have a hard time sleeping. My acupuncturist (who's also my friend) recommended that I take 5-HTP and says it will help me sleep. So far I've been taking a Xanax (0.5 mg) to help me fall asleep and it doesn't work that well. I bought the bottle about a month ago and still haven't tried it because I'm nervous it will be just another thing that won't work. Has anyone tried this for sleep and had success?

• Open Question: can anyone recommend a chiropractor in los angeles/california who will accept medi- cal- same for acupuncture?

  i have a degenerative issue with my spine that needs to seriously be addressed by a professional chiropractor. unfortunately i am unemployed and disable and only covered by medi-cal. it is difficult finding any kind of healthcare with such limited insurance, and even more frustrating that my health issues have progressed/declined because i haven't been able to find anyone who will treat me, in spite of their diagnosis that I need serious help- due to most providers not accepting medi-cal. If anyone knows of a good/professional/compassionate chiropractor, and or acupuncturist (because I need to get some acupuncture treatment as well-) that accepts medi-cal- and or may even take on pro-bono cases- could you please let me know with any referrals/suggestions? Thank you! - Very much in pain and would like to restore my health- so I can work again!!!!
