I have been taking bupropion SR for quitting smoking for three weeks. two days ago I changed my dosage from 150 to 300mg with my doctor's advice. Last night I experienced pretty bad itching, first in my hands and then all over. I woke up today with milder but present itching. My doctor says I should stay on the drug for another 24-36 hours, but I am afraid that it will get worse. So many people online have reported that it gets worse. Should I drop down to 150, stop altogether or should I follow my doctor's advice and wait and see. Also, is there anything I can take for the itching? HELP :)

Me and my sisters are wondering if its possible to make and DNA test between any of us and the kid.

Why can't I keep my eyes open when I sneeze? If you have this tickely feeling, why does it help to look into the light to bring the sneeze out? And why does touching the nose stop it?

Therefore, I was wondering how long should I wait to eat something in order to take the Motrin. Please...hurry...sinusitis...head...really...really...hurts.....

http://www.ketamine.com/antidepressant-potential.html
Its a bit long so I'll forgive you for not reading it in its entirety if you don't want to, and here is a synopsis.
Reserchers have found in several studies that administering Ketamine (cat tranquilizer turned club drug) to patients for which no other antidepressant has worked, reversed their depression within hours and lasted for up to a week. Also, 14 out of 40 sufferers of a disease which causes its sufferer to sense normal fluctuations in temperature or little bumps as excrutiating pain have been completely cured.
What do you think?

For embalming or an autopsy, what shape do they cut you open in? Is it an H sideways, a Y, or a T?
If it is not the sideways H, is there any medical procedure where they do?
