Knowing that Blood sugars can be raised with Steriod medical use can you tell me if your Pancrea is damaged?
Will Blood sugars return to Normal when Steroid usage stops?

I'm writing a novel. Based on 1960s patient medication procedures rather than todays computerized systems. The parient is given a regular dose by a nurse then given an overdose of the same meds by a bad guy that kills the patient. The hospital is then sued for negligence.
What heart drug would be used in normal routine patient medication to help in recovery and at the same time if overdosed would kill him?The overdose has to be realistic and not something that would never be used or carried in a hospital pharacy.
Thanks Roger

A situation where someone unconsiously projects their bad or unfortunate experiences with someone else onto others, assuming that since they had this experience, most others must be experiencing it too. Example: A woman who's had a bad history with her husband, and automatically treats most other women's husbands as though they were jerks, wether they are or not. I know that the popular term "baggage" is sometimes used, but I'm looking for a clinical name for it.

I do not know if we are just satisfying our selfish need to prolong the inevitable or if there is some hope of rehabilitation. my mother is my world...i have accepted that we need to release her in the name of GOD. But if there is any hope that we may have some time left I do not want to be so hasty with my decisions. the doctors are asking for answers now but i am all out of resources. help! how much more should we put her through. she is 62yrs old and has high anxiety and end stage COPD...is it time to say enough is enough? What options do we have? What are the pros and cons? What are some long term care vent units in the midwestern united states?

My dad has severe arthritis, he is 52 and has had it since he was 30. He has had umptine joint replacements but one in particular is causing alot of problems. Over 3 years he has had 4 knee replacements in the same knee as it keeps getting infected. The docs were treating the problem with MRSA drugs for a while but they have diagnosed the infection as yeast growing in the joint. Apparently he is the only person in UK with this. Has anyone heard of anything like this?

Please let me know, I appreciate it very much!

Thanku heaps!! :)

I've had a sinus infection for two weeks that's caused a decreased appetite. I started antibiotics three days ago and now that my sinus infection is feeling better and my appetite is coming back, the antibiotic is being unkind to my digestive system. Figures!

What would be a good, healthy breakfast that would be easy on my tummy this morning? I'm starving but I want something that's not likely to make me sick.

Thanks!!!
