General Health Care - July 2006

I'm looking for an answer as to if I have a wrongful death case against a pharmacy that filled a prescription for narcotics for my husband in 2005. On Feb. 9, 2005 my husband's doc prescribed 50 Valium (10 mg) and 100 Oxycodone for Chronic Pain. The Valium was to last 10 days (an unually high dose according to the pharmacist). On Feb. 15, 2005, my husband called in for a refill. This was 4 days too early, but the doctor faxed in a refill for 150 Valium (10 mg)..the pharmacy filled it!! Why WHY?? First of all, the doc overprescribed to a man who had attempted suicide twice within a year (once in April of 2005 by a Valium overdose and once on Jan. 29, 2005 by slashing his wrists). I feel the doc should have never prescribed these meds so soon after a suicide attempt. It reeks of malpractice, but I've spoken to lawyers who turned me down. PLEASE HELP ME. I am disabled and now a widow. It's not fair and I seek JUSTICE for my husband. Thank you, Jana

The strange thing is that my rh factor changed from negative to positive, then back to negative. The past few times it has been tested it continues to be negative. It came out positive 2 separate times, and the doctor re-tested to make sure. He was stumped. Has anyone ever heard of this?

If the child has been up playing all day and has been fine and all of a sudden gets sick to their tummy and gags a little, complains of a sore throat and tummy ache and falls asleep, what could this be? Could it be from eating alot of different foods in one day? We usually have a very healthy diet but we had food left over from the 4th of july and she has had boiled peanuts and brownies today and she isn't used to having much junk food. She is 3 years old and has never been sick and she has not been exposed to anyone outside of our home as I am a stay home mom. She is not running a fever or anything? Am I being overly paranoid?

Anybody know anything abouth this "See Clearly Method" I keep hearing ad's about? It is supposed to improve vision without drugs, corrective lenses or surgery. Sounds like another scam to me. Just curious.

I don't mean screaming all day, although that would surely give you sore throat and probably the hoarseness. I refer to a quick trick, if there is one, without the 'loudness'.
