I have a chest infection and need an anitbiotic to finally shake it, but I don't have insurance to get one. I got my hands on some Zithromax and Augmentin XR They are stamped with October 1 04 for the Zithromax and 1 04 for the Augmentin. Are these antibiotics ok to take or should they just be pitched?

Thanks.

She had it many years before. But it has become asymptomatic since. Small traces of it was discovered in a recent blood test sample.

Do vestigial traces post a risk?

1. I have taken vaccination before, what is the chance of me contracting this disease.

2. what is the risk of me becomeing a asymptomatic vector?

please help!

I know of a woman who is claiming to be in the middle of a lawsuit in New Jersey over the recent Ecoli outbreak. She told her daughters father that she was suing and that her daughter had been very sick but had never bothered to call him. Now she has told people she is sick of everyone else getting something for free-they said they hoped she had receipts to prove she was there-she said they have to prove she wasn't. Her boyfreind has just broken up with her and her family feels like she is in for a get rich quick scam. Her daughter will not eat anything besides chicken nuggets-ANYTHING! There is no way she ate at Taco Bell. This happened at one of the chains in Middlesex County New Jersey. Please let me kow how to find the owner to let him know she has been unfit in the care of her daughter in the past. Two years ago she had a case of ringworm that lasted for 5 1/2 months. She said why should she leave work for something stupid like that!

I just learned a friend of mine has AIDS! I can't help but be creeped out by the whole idea. We've never had sexual relations but I have dated a guy that used to date his ex, and lost contact with that whole group I used to hang out with so don't know the source, if that makes any sence. I moved away and haven't seen any of them for a few years. Anyway I have been tested twice awhile back, (before I learned of any of this), and came back negative. But I was wondering, what it means by HIV laying dormant? Does that mean you can test negative and still have it?

I woke up with the flu yesterday morning and my temp has bounced from, 96 to 103. I keep taking tylenol and ibuprofen. They help somewhat but the fever comes right back. I'M MISERABLE. I'm 62 and a single grndpa who lives alone. No family or friends nearby. Anyone out there have any ideas? I feel like crawling in a hole. I never had this experience before with the Flu; i.e., not being able to lower the fever. Thanks, I'll stay up watching for answers. I can't sleeo anyway.
