I clean apartments. Recently cleaned one, that made me very sick to my stomach, and gave me a throbbing headache. After being gone for the night, then returning the next day, it happened again...Was I exposed to someone cooking meth? BTW, they had to repaint, recarpet and remove appliances. Also, two other workers felt the same, unfortunately, they were exposed for longer periods of time, ( 1mos)

On 60 minutes there was a discussion about whether this pill should be used or not. If one had a rape that caused them great stress and pain, would this pill be applicable or should they simply learn to cope with their traumas naturally?

Memory loss (total loss of memories of a 10-12 year period before the deep vein thrombosis). Is it rare? Memories before 10-12 years before DVT are clear with only a few gaps that are fairly normal for most people.

The DVT was 'massive' - the entire length of one leg, caught late, crystallized in places, extremely resistent to finally breaking up, & breakup caused 'damage' (said doctors) to leg, heart area, brain.

Brain seems fine (after CT scan) aside from headaches always on the centre of the right side of brain, but after 2 years the memories aren't there at all.

Does this qualify as a brain injury? Does a person get their old personality (pre DVT) back or are they stuck with remembering only pre-10-12 years before and post-DVT? (no amount of trying and going through videos or photos or diaries helps memory return).

After doctors are precribing the medicines, it will be nice if we can see the purpose of the medicines, its possible side-effecs, etc.
Details which comes with the medicines gives us only the chemical names, but if we can get the details on the medicines like cough, anti-biotic, multi-vitamin, etc it would be great. I would like to know if there is any website where we can get the details.
