I always see pharmacist telling their helpers what to do and what to tell the patients, so my question is what do they do?

I have been dianosed with severe arotic stenosis. I am scheduled for cauterization next month, to determine if corotid arteries are good.

I was told I will need an arota vale replacement.
As my income is from social security, I am terified of the cost and where to find the money. I understand medicare will pay 80% but that leaves 20 % to pay.
My main questions are: What is the cost of this operation?
If someone has under gone this type of sugery, How many days in the hospital, and quality of life after?
North Carolina is the most likley location for this operation. If any one could provide information from this area I would be greatful.
This is a very recent diagnosis.
Thanks to all.

I have forgotten the name of this type of worm that kids (usualy) tend to get:

Symptoms include the scratching of the bum (usualy at night - whilst the eggs are being layed), the worms are short and found in feces.

I cant find it online... I dont think i am talking about ribbon or tape worms but i could be wrong...

Thanks!

In the past 2 weeks all of a sudden i have been breaking out with huge pimples 6 to be exact. Dont get me wrong i do break out once in a while especially when its getting to that time of the month but i would only get 1 or 2 pimples. I am 24 years old its weird how i did not get this when i was in my teens i have even gotten compliments on how clear my skin is but i don't know what's happening my freind says its maybe stress but whatever it is i want it gone i have even tought of buying proactive but thats too extreme any suggestions to what i can use over the counter? Is acne free good?
P.S. I need a product that i can stop using it whenever the acne clears up b/c i heard if you use proactive when you stop you start breaking out worst that before.

Everyone tells me that I will look anerexic if I lose that much weight, but I hate how much I weigh. 110-115 is my ideal weight. I try to eat right and excersice regularily, but I don't seem to be losing anything.

I am 135 pounds, maybe a little less pounds and 5"3 I am 14 years old and female.
I feel and look so fat, veryone around me is so skinny,
A) What do you guys think, am I fat?
B) Is it okay if I lose like 30 pounds, would that be a healthy weight for 5"3, 14, and a girl.
I would NEVER eat fast food or pizza or french fries, and greasy stuff like that. I don't really like meat a lot. I exercise 2 days a week, I try to do more, if I have the time, and I eat not that healthy, but like for lunch, maybe like salad, or baked potato, with broccoli and cheese, or a tuna wrap. I never drink soda maybe I'll drink diet soda, and I don't really eat a lot of junk food.

I was perscribed it for my bulimia. I had the memory loss issue, eyes issue and lost a ton of weight when I was on it.. but thats cause it caused my anorexia to come out again. Anyone else experience weightloss or symptoms? If weight loss was it cause you ate less or just lost the weight?
