I was away in another city when my mom and sister took my guinea pig to the hospital. He was having trouble breathing and hadn't eaten anything. The hospital charged them $475.00 when they knew he was basically dead. I was angry because my sister pushed for them to keep trying and they knew he ws basically dead. I told my mom I would help pay her back. I'm just angry because after all that money I wanted him to get put to sleep. Am I angry to be so angry that they wasted that money?

I went to the batting cages stretched out my arms, but crap, not my hip area. Now my right hip hurts everytime I use it. It feels like I strained it. If so, how can I "make it better" not the pain but to "fix it".

I found a bottle of prescription pills in the back of my medicine cabinet...no label on it & I cannot remember what they are. They are oblong shaped, bright orange, and are stamped with 5229 on one side. Anyone have any idea?

I started smoking Kools Menthol.
What is the biggest different beween Menthol and Regular. Cigarettes?
What is your preffered brand or brands?
Has anyone tried flavor cigarettes, and if so how are they?

A few nights ago me and some buddies ate some lamb. A day or 2 later me and one of my buddies had diarrea and few stomach pains. A day later 3 other buddies who had ate the lamb also got the same symptoms. Everyone else has gotten rid of thier diarrea within a day or so, but I still have it. I have taken the chewable Pepto's with no relief. Should I try to find the liquid pepto or what?

Especially if a previous doctor saw no problems, or had no concerns?

Ok, I'm upset right now. I went to a Chiropractor 2 weeks ago to find out about a pain in my back and leg. He said all I needed was an adjustment and after he adjusted me he gave me an X-ray. He told me once the results came back that they were to dark and that he would give me free X-rays in 2 weeks. I went back today and he gave me 4 more X-rays he said all of them were to dark to read. I then requested all my medical records because my family doctor wants to see what's going on with my back and leg. The chriopractor refused to give me any of my medical records and said that the chriopracter had no progress notes. Now my family doctor is going to request for them herself. Also when I requested them they told me that the records would not leave their building.
Does this sound like normal everyday medical procedures?

I have a hard lump on the bottom (underside) of my foot. It is not painful unless I push in on it, and it is a little larger than marble size. Any ideas?

Okay. So I went to the ear doctor last month and he pulled this really big thing out of my ear drum and it hurt REALLY bad and he told me to take the drops in my ear and I did. Now I am going back in 2 days and my mom and grandma looked in my ear and they said that they didn't see any scabs or anything bad...just wax and stuff...I really hope that the doctor won't have to scrape in their again...do you think he will? [the stuff he pulled out was over a period of 3 years]

My friend swears by this:
When he feels a cold coming on, he drinks 4oz. of warmed up whisky (seriously), then bundles up in several layers of PJs and socks, lots of blankets, and sweats like crazy all night. He swears he wakes up healthy every time. What do you think?

I suffer with wax build up in my right ear. This happens every 2-3 months. Could it be, because I sleep on that side? What can I do to resolve this.

my husband is currently doing a first aid course and whenever the subject of vomiting is discussed they talk about carrots and sweetcorn we are wondering why does vomit always contain what looks like carrots and sweetcorn, what are the reason/causes for this. Sensible answers only please.
