My dog's got the runs bad. I think it's a tummy bug because my other dog had it a couple days ago. A friend said he gave his dog pepto bismol but I don't know how safe that is for dogs since meds don't work the same on them. I don't want to wait until tomorrow to see the vet since my dog is miserable tonight. Help!

Lets say after your 10 hour sleep, you get up to do something and tried to go back to sleep. Is that possible? Or is it physiologically impossilbe to do that. What I mean is, is there a point that your body says, "no if you get any more sleep you will die!" Or, could you possibly still go back to sleep eventhough its "bad" for you just like over eating is bad for you.

When I look at a bright light, or when I go outside in the sunlight, I always sneeze twice. It dosn't happen to anyone else I know, but it always happens to me, and they always take me off guard. Does this happen to anyone else?

I'm pretty sure I have swollen glans, I was just wondering if I have to go to the docter and get something for it, or just let it pass on it's own? Is there anything I can take to make it better? Thanks

Please be sensible and sensitive with your responses. I've recently started seeing someone who uses cannibis openly and without concern, and she claims it helps to relax the symptoms of IBS. Is this true, or is her IBS a convenient excuse? Thanks
