Question 5

33weeks and relapsed will my baby test positive for meth? is it too late to talk to my ob about my mistake? do they test the meconium in missouri?

Accepted Answer

Stop it!: Because you are asking, I suspect you already know that MA use during pregnancy is associated with shorter gestational ages and lower birth weight, especially if used continuously during pregnancy. Stopping MA use at any time during pregnancy improves birth outcomes. No, its not too late to talk to your Ob. Yes, drug testing is done in every state, including Missouri, if drug use is suspected.

Question 6

missouri) how can a private school get emergency epinephrine for our first aid supplies? do we need to hire a licensed nurse, or can general staff be trained in its use & able to purchase it for the school?

Accepted Answer

: You should contact your local health department for guidance. State laws govern the who/what/why in providing any prescription or other medication to patients of any age or location. Perhaps you have a physician parent involved with the school that could follow local rules on delegating authority for stocking this drug &amp; emergency by specified personnel.

Accepted Answer

: Different machines use different samples for calibration. Once calibration is complete, all machines will come out with the same lab results. Value of 19 is not high for bilirubin, nothing needs to be done for this value until associated with signs or symptoms of biliary obstruction or liver cell disorders. Hope you helps.

Question 9

what is the tx for laryngist?

Accepted Answer

Laryngitis: This is usually a viral illness. Best to rest the voice completely. Gargle warm salt water and breathe hot steam vapor. A decongestant  may help. See the doctor if there is a high fever and sore throat along with the loss of voice.

Question 10

is there any tx for grauloma anulerie?

Accepted Answer

Yes: In many cases, granuloma annulare is "self-limiting, " meaning it will resolve on its own without any treatment. That said, it may take a long time (years) to resolve, so first-line treatments include topical corticosteroids (creams). Other options like cryotherapy are available, but evidence is limited as to their effectiveness. Talk with your doctor about what options are reasonable for your case.
