My son and I both have viral pinkeye, does anyone know how long it's contagious for?
We both woke up with it on Saturday and called the doctor, he called in an antibiotic, which will obviously not work for viral pinkeye, but we weren't sure what kind it was. Now I have to wait until tommorow to get in touch with the doctor and I need to know if I can go to work (I work in a preschool) and if he can go to school. We both have to be there before the doctor is in.

If anyone could let me know, I would aprectiate it!
Thanks!

I am looking to talk to a lot of people who have gone through the treatment. Please give me advise and maybe a place to go to talk to people. I have looked into support groups in the area and they are all at times i cant make it. How do I tell people that are close to me? friends? family? I am afriad of the way they will act. Is this a normal fear? also who has had to take antidepressents with the treatment? can i make it with out? i am not a depressed person but my husband worries that if the treament doesnt work i might become depressed. shoud i still take antidepressents before i start treatment? I took them for a couple of days and i was really sick on them. i am more scared of the antidepressents than the treatment. is that a normal feeling? i could use a lot of people to talk to. wil people look at me differently if i tell them i have hcv? only respond if you have a serious answer please.

I have been fighting a cold for a few days, but instead of having a fever, I'm finding that my temperature is quite low (between 94.2F- 96.5F). This is usally what happens when I get sick, but it's not usually this low. Should I be concerned? And is it bad to have such a low temperature?

I heard that the only way a squirrel could get rabies, is if it got attacked by a dog with rabies. And since the chances of a squirrel surviving such an attack are small, then there is almost no chance of getting rabies from a squirrel. I forgot where I read this, but is it true? Do you know of any sources to back up this claim or anyother claim related to this topic?

I have a 3 year old cat who is not that friendly to other people. She is very sweet to my husband and I but whenver we have visitors, I always warned them to not touch my cat because she might scratch them - just a precaution.

My brother brought an obnoxious guest the other day, I warned him and all that about my cat and he still was very disrespectful despite of what I said...He bothered my "sleeping" cat of course, as reflex, my cat doesn't know him at all she scratched him and made this scary meow noise (that I never heard her meow like tha before!)

make the long story short, a week after this idiot got scratched..he called and asking about my cat's vaccine records - he was saying that his hands is swollen due to the scratch. My problem is, my cat is behind 2 years of vaccine.

I don't want anything bad to happened...BUT IT WAS HIS FAULT! have he not bothered my cat he wouldn't get scratched. I am very upset. Could he get a rabies virus?am I in trouble?

today i stepped on a nail
im not sure if it was rusty or not
it went through the sole of my shoe
about twent minutes after it happened i put some TCP (antiseptic) on it

however
the cut isnt big
its not even a cut
its about the size of a head of a sharpened pencil
but it didnt bleed.
it only gave out a spot of blood when i put alot of pressure on it

i just wanted to know the odds of me having tetanus or not?
im very worried as it can be fatal!
