Im 3 months pregnant and have a bad tooth ache. I can’t get into my doctor until after the 4th. I can only take tylenol and have taken my limit. Does anyone have any good home remedies or ideas that can help. I can’t go to sleep and feel horrible anyway. Thanks!

First, let me state I have no objection, nor do I have the right to object to anyone taking legally prescribed drugs for whatever condition. If it were my minor child, I think I would have a right to input. That is not the issue.
Nursing school. Drilled into our heads drugs. State
could get busted for possession if you take a drug
to authorities. Illegal drugs were not an issue in
our home, we were not illegal drug users. Much taboo about psych drugs. I could not care less if it is legally
prescribed by a competent medical care provider.
Unknown to me, someone has an agenda with me.
I was cleaning our closet, this is the semester prior to graduating from nursing school. In a shoe, in the closet I found a bottle, unmarked, unlabeled of pills. I do not
know for absolute sure what they were. Full bottle.
I panicked. Full panic, blind panic, I said a bad word, and ran
to the commode, dumped and flushed. I did not take one of them, I did not take one out of the bottle. Had my husband been home I would have talked to him about them right then and there. He did have tinnitus
from smoking for many many years. He had cut down from four packs when we married, to one pack a day when home of Carlton extra lights. I would have had no objection to his taking a legal drug. He was a grown man with all the rights to whatever anyone else had,
needless to say. But as I said,
I panicked. Then, out of fear again, thinking I am
being set up because so much was going on, I called some ladies I knew who were with law enforcement.
Told them I found this, and that I did not take them.
I mentioned no names. I was trying to protect myself
I was so close to graduation.

My husband never missed those pills. Never said a word. Never acted like he knew a thing. Very puzzing.
Then I started thinking. I know those pills had been in the closet for at least 3 years. I can retrospectively tell you everyone who knew they were there, probably including, but not for sure people in college.
Could I have been busted for possession? Where
would I have taken them. If they were Xanax, and
they looked sort of like the light blue Xanax or a pill
for dizziness. I am almost sure they were Xanax.
That is a schedule four controlled drug. No label.

Listen up . I was in college.
Female. Old joke, looking for your MRS. degree.
No . I had one and I wanted to keep it. No plans for
divorce whatsoever. I had a recipe file box. Got it
when I read a book written by a preacher’s wife.
No. I never tried to be like anyone else. We were very
active in church for many years. My husband
I believe considered the clergy. I emulate no one.
Nor do, or did I envy or copy them.
She talked about her housekeeping system. I adopted
some of it. In this box, I had birthdays, holidays,
yearly chores, monthly, weekly , daily chores according to month or day. Did I do all this routinely?
No. I am not a compulsive housekeeper, I am also
not anal. I am not fixated anywhere. Not. Zilch.
It came in handy for the bds, etc. and I knew all the time what needed to be done. If I got into housecleaning mode, I had a list of things overdue, and current to pick from. It was really neat.
Some one took it upon themselves to defend my husband in case I divorced him. They were inspecting my housekeeping. I found the pills when I cleaned the bottom of the closet, straightening the shoes.
They also found my list of canning and freezing
which I kept from year to year: Made 80 jars of corn last year; Used it all. Make more this year, etc.
Well. I was not planning to divorce. My husand did
not ever complain about the house. My kids and I could
clean the house top to bottom in an hour and it look
neat as a pin, and do deep cleaning in about three
hours of every room. I usually did it,because I wanted to do so.

What do you think? Could I have been busted?
Also, I have never heard the end of this. No one, no one, as usual ever mentioned the pills. No one.
Not one single person. Could that be guilt?

Yes. You can be busted in your home. It happens every day. Every day.
Yes. You can be busted in your home. It happens every day. Every day.

Ear ringing?

What is it when you get a ringing in your ear? I haven’t heard a tail once that says that when you have a ringing in your ear that someone is talking about you….what really is it?

advice on dealing with constant ringing in ears?

I recently got diagnosed with Tinitus, which is a constant ringing in both of my ears. It is driving me crazy especially at bedtime. I have tried sleeping with background noise like a fan, but nothing helps. Any suggestions?

A stray cat came to our home about a week ago. He/she is extremely skinny and malnourished. About 3 weeks previous, she/he had come to our house, however it wasn’t nearly as sick and skinny looking. We fed him for a couple of says and then he left. Almost every bone in his/her body is able to be felt (he/she is a fluffy cat so it isn’t that noticable that it’s skinny). We have 3 other cats that we take to the vet, along with 5 dogs and 2 horses. All of whom we take very good care of. However, we can’t afford to take this stray to a vet. All of our animals came to us as strays, so we try our hardest to help the animals. All of our 3 cats a completely avoiding the cat, going as far as to sleep and eat in the gaurage rather than the front porch. Are there ANY, ANY at all, home remedies that I could try to help this cat? His/her energy level is very low, it doesn’t go very far at all. Mostly it justs sleeps. How can I help this cat?
We live out in the country and a lone puppy recently showed up on our doorstep. We took him to a no-kill shelter ( we had to lie that we found him in a parking lot). As everyone knows, your not suppost to take animals to a shelter outside of city limits. So what should I do? Take him to another animals shelter and say I found him on the side of the road?

are my ringing ears permanently damaged?!?

So basically I went to a techno concert last Sunday and I guess I was next to really loud bass speakers the whole time for around 3 hours. On the way home I realized my ears have a weird ringing to it, kind of like a white noise. I thought it would go away but it’s still here and it’s been 4 days now. The volume of the white noise decreased but when a room is dead quiet I can still hear it. And I’m only 17 too, so this really sucks because it’s so hard to concentrate in classrooms with the annoying buzz/ring! Does this seem like tinnitus or what?

what homemade remedies can i give my constipated cat?

I feel so bad for him and it’s Christmas, of course so i can’t go to the store to buy him anything until tomorrow. Is there anything i can give him for now to help him out.

p.s should i start buying him wet food? he’s been on a dry food diet pretty much since i got him (he’s 5 months)

Tinnitus and possible remedies?

Okay, so, my friend and I went out to shoot his new gun on Tuesday, June 9th, that he bought that day. It is basically an exact copy of the military issued M16 plus or minus a few accessories. I have not shot a rifle before and he forgot ear plugs. I did not know that I should use ear plugs while shooting a rifle, I barely hunt and I have shot a shot gun and a .22 before. Anyways, I shot 30 rounds with the gun and it was extremely loud. I told him about the ringing and he said that it should be gone in about a day or two. However, it is now Saturday, June 13 and the ringing still has not gone away. Are there any possible remedies that I would be able to get? Simple, complicated, techniques to do, things to eat, etc?

Anyone know of any home remedies for pregnancy edema?

It doesn’t go away. I rest my feet, I’m watching my salt intake, I take baths, I take breaks from sitting and standing… I don’t know what else to do! It says if I do these things it should go away at least at night. It never does. None of my shoes fit anymore not even my sandals I had to buy adjustable ones! I’m only 7 months pregnant and I’m afraid it will only get worse as I get bigger please help!

okay, so i’ve been running almost everyday from september (school track team). I started to get white bumps between my toes, and white/peeling skin on the top of my toes during cross country season. Also, the skin on the side of my big toe is starting to get rough and hard, and none of this won’t go away! so i’m scared for summer because i’ll be embarrassed to wear open toed shoes. What do i do?
