His arms were all bitten up and it is obvious what it is from----bedbugs. He has them somewhat under control now but he won't tell his landlord (she's a slum queen....I've rented from her in the past too) because she would blame HIM for the infestation. He lives in an old building....somewhat of a rooming house where the turnover of tenants is constant. My question, as mentioned above is: Can he carry them on his clothes and bring them into my apartment and infest MY place (and then, of course the whole 60 unit building where I live!)? I've read every fact sheet and have contacted the Dept of Health but I can't get a good answer to this question. I have not let him in my place past the kitchen for a couple MONTHS now and would like my friend back. What should I do? Any SERIOUS answers would be of great help. Thanks a bunch in advance!

He has cp and epilepsy and is being treated for pneumonia in the hospital right now. I am worried that he might be getting too many meds for the seizures. He is on Keppra, Topamax, and Clonazepam. During the day he is difficult to wake. Doc's seem reluctant to reduce meds. He doesn't eat now. Help?

Need to get or find some jokes for a party. The party is a "kidney going away" party. A friend of mine is donating a kidney to her sister and we are having a party for her kidney. We need some kidney jokes, or transplant jokes. We will be having cranberry cocktails and beer, for the kidney's sake.

And Yes. I am serious.

Starting on friday my four year old son spiked a very high fever, and became very lethargic, and complained about his throat hurting. Well his fever peaked on Saturday night, and I started noticing a rash forming around his groin, back of his knees, and arm pits. Well i searched on the web, and decided its Scarlet fever, since he mathces it to the "T" even the pictures of the rash that I found. Well yesterday his fever subsided, and his rash started to fade. Well today his fever is very low, and on its way back to normal, and is rash is pretty much gone except the snadpapery like feeling it leaves behind, and its still red around his groin area. So I guess what I am asking is...do I take him to the doctor still even though he seems to be getting better on his own? Or do I let nature take its course and let him heal up by himself?
