General Health Care - September 2006

I have had this on and off for 16 years now but the last time i had it bad was a few years ago and now it's back again. i have terrible pain in my wrist and the base of my thumb, it hurts when i pick something heavy up and if i pick something up at the wrong angle, the pain is really bad, the pains can sometimes go all the way up my arm and has kept me awake at night at time, this has been going on for 3 days now.a bandage helps a little bit, but as soon as i take it off it hurts again. i know it's not carpal tunnel syndrome, because i know these symptoms, but i dont know the name of this.

How do you know if you have an ulcer? Why do we get them?
If you have taken Zantac and still have the acid reflux. This has gone on for months. The Zantac helps but as soon as you don't take them it comes back.
If you do have one, what can happen if it is not checked? What is the worst senario? What does the doctor do to get rid of it?

I had an operation on Thursday and in recovery they told me that I had a drug which was stronger than Morphine to help with the pain. They told me the name but I was too out of it to remember it. Does anyone know what it could be called?

I have started having recurring dreams about a pack of tigers, trying to get me and my kids, i am always terrified, they sniff around us and growl, and i wake up panicked. It happens a lot all of a sudden, why tigers? and is there some underlying cause of these dreams?

I told my boyfriend to grab a paper towel to soak up the blood and he took me literal and instead of grabbing a towel or something to keep the blood from dripping all over the floor he went thru his house to open a back room to peel a paper towel out of a plastic package. I dripped blood all over the kitchen floor, all over the bathroom and in 2 sinks while he searched for a paper towel. I finally grabbed some toilet paper off roll and put pressure on my gushing finger. What do some men think? Am I being too harsh? A kitchen towel would have worked, but I didnt know which drawer was the towel drawer. He slowly went about opening the paper towels. By the way, I am a nurse.
