  • Edibles and Vicodin

    My advise to you, given your current options, is if the edibles have been effective, use them to get off of Vicodin as quickly as possible. Marijaunna is known to be habit forming but not physically addictive. Physical and psychological addiction to opiates can ruin your life very quickly. READ MORE

  • Can I fix high blood pressure at home?

    If you educate yourself and learn to take your own blood pressure, the answer is yes. You must be motivated enough. There are short acting medications that you can take for occasional significant elevations in blood pressure, and most long acting drugs are initially prescribed at lower doses so you can increase them slowly. It takes time, but again you must be motivated and knowledgeable to be successful. READ MORE

  • Should I go to the hospital if I have COVID?

    Unless you are short of breath at rest or with exertion, have chest pain, have a fast heart rate > 100 beats per minute, or have severe diarrhea and are dehydrated, it is not necessary to go to emergency. It is best that you do not. READ MORE

  • What is dangerously low hemoglobin?

    It depends on how fast your hemoglobin falls. If it is falling fast, you could have either bleeding somewhere, or an immune disease that is causing your red cells to break apart, or other serious problem. If your hemoglobin is stable (not changing over time), you most likely have iron deficiency - especially if you are a woman and are menstruating. A hemoglobin less than 10, although not immediately life threatening, is of concern and you should be seen regularly by a physician. A hemoglobin less than 8 can result in heart or kidney failure over time. READ MORE

  • What should I expect from insecticide poisoning
