My mother entered the hospital with bronchitis. She also has emphysema but has never needed anything but an inhaler (combivent). When she went in her pulse ox was 70%. She has been in the hospital for over a week and they can't bring it up above 84%. The Drs. can't figure it out. Does anyone have any ideas?

Is the body's immunity strong enough to overcome tuberculosis completely without medication? Or does the bacteria remains dormant in the body?

I lost my voice on christmas day 21 days ago...along with some sort of congestion and bad cough with the green mucus... I never went to the doctor but it all cleared up. What is happening now is semi hoarse voice(It was getting better but has not really improved in the last 3 or 4 days) and a tickle in my throat when I talk that makes me cough...and every morning a little phlegm. Should I just keep waiting it out? I should mention that before this I literally had not been sick in 5 years... not a thing so i was thinking my body was having trouble fighting all this off....Any Doctors out there?..Thanks!

If indeed second hand spoke is a health hazard to children, then should there be a law prohibing exposure of children at home and in automobiles. If there was such a law, could child protective services remove a child from such exposure, since a child cannot choose whether or not to be in such a situation like that?

I just found a tupperware container that must have fallen out of my lunch bag quite a while back and I didn't find until now. I opened it up and it had the most pungent thickest black mold in it. I am guessing it was some type of bread but I honestly don't know. Stuff made me cough like crazy and my nose kinda burns now. Is this something that will go away or should I be really concerned? I heard some story a while back about some guy that ended up with serious nose damage from moldy bread and that is worrying me a bit. I sprayed around the house with Lysol and I am hoping that is enough.

Somebody told me that the product might be Vick's vapor rub, is it true as I find that Vicks can irritate the nostrils. If not is there a better product to guard against odors for a sensitive nose? Thanks!

I have an infant son, and have noticed that since the leak has gotten worse, he's steadily had the sniffles, and I've been sneezing a lot too. I'm also highly allergic to many things including dust, so I wouldn't be surprised if my baby were too. Also, does exposure to mold/mildew cause Asthma? If so, could I have a case if my baby or I develops asthma because of the mold?
