I take a prescription for allergies everyday and my sugar levels as a diabetic seem to be elevating? Could it be the allergy medication doing this?

So, here goes.

Me and my younger brother both had our annual physical this week, and we noticed that both of our urine samples we're very dark. Now I just got a call that we need to go back to discuss the lab results.

Should I be worried? Is it some kind of joint infection or reaction?

Thanks

And I think I may have appendicitis but not sure. Per WEBMD, I have 90% of the symptoms but I don't have insurance and have not been to the doc yet. The ER is going to cost a FORTUNE.....any ideas where I should go?

My fiance does landscaping for a living. He is constantly coming home with spots of poison oak or ivy. He is extremely allergic.
What is so strange is that he wears gloves, pants, socks and shoes all day but will manange to get a spot of poison oak on his foot, hand or leg. Yesterday he came home with one on his buttcheek.
It seems like whenever he is within 10 feet of the poisonus plants he will get it, whether he touches it or not.
It's started to affect his sleep at night, which affects my sleep as well. The painful itchy bumps keep him up all night.
Can anyone reccomend anything to keep him from constantly getting these poison oak or ivy rashes?
Is there any kind of herb or supplement that will make his immune system stronger to the poison?
Thanks so much for your help

Hiya

Could someone please advice me on the best Sun protection to use on black skin as the one currently being used leaves skin looking like its been covered in calamine lotion. Thanks

I have read somewhere that sunshine can help eradicate eczema (and/or psoriasis?) because it helps create Vitamin D in the body. Can you please tell me if the sunlight, to be effective here, needs to actually fall on the part of the body affected by the condition? Or can that part of the body be covered by your clothes in fact? Are there any natural remedies/foods, apart from oily fish , that can help?

A few weeks ago I asked about a problem I had with my toes on my left foot, that has cleared up but now it is on my left foot, it is on the pads of the toes and the side of the foot that touches the ground, if you look at my foot those spots look like I had stood on burning hot pavement and burned my foot even though I have not, it burns somewhat but not bad, that is pretty much the only symptom besides how it looks, it does not itch, I looked up athletes foot and it dosn't look to be that, any ideas?

P.S. I wear my tennis shoes all day and don't wear socks if that helps (I just don't like wearing socks in the summer)
