i am outta pills. since i cant get any what should i do?/watch for? 
ive been taking .5 twice a day everyday for 7 years please help! thanks

Accepted Answer

Klonopin: Klonopin is a long acting tranquilizer and after taking it regularly for 7 years I would expect withdrawal symptoms if it was abruptly discontinued. These could be seizures, shakes, irritability,anxiety or other personality changes. Check with the social workers at the local hospital to see if you can be seen in a volunteer or free clinic. If you have any of the abovementioned symptoms go to ER

Question 3

Accepted Answer

There are many: Florida is a large state with lots of resources, but facilities change and gettign current information from someone who treats addictions and is familiar with the current state of more health care for less is wise.  In the north central florida area the university of florida recovery center has some great doctors and a range of options, in ocala the vines offers treatment.

Question 4

are there any good doctors in florida,  i can't find any help!

Accepted Answer

Can be frustrating: Is there a certain type of physician you are looking for? I know when you are in an area and do not mesh with or trust any physicians, it can be very difficult, even more frustrating when you are trapped to certain people through insurance plans. My wife and i had similar issues when we first moved down here, but soon found good ones. Not sure of your city, but i can recommend the ones we go to no.

Question 5

i live in florida, saw snake the other day, wasn't poisonous though, what should i do if a poisonous one bites me?

Accepted Answer

Snake bite first aid: Remain calm. Call 911.  Immobilize the bitten arm or leg, and move as little as possible, remove jewelry before you start to swell. Position yourself,  so that the bite is at or below the level of your heart. Clean the wound, but don't flush it with water.  Apply a splint to reduce movement. DO NOT APPLY A TOURNIQUET OR ICE, DO NOT SUCK OUT THE VENOM.  Check MEDLINE PLUS for more information.

Question 6

in florida, the humidity is so high 10 months a year i almost feel like passing out when outdoors for even 15 minutes and i am very healthy. why?

Accepted Answer

Heat reaction: At your age I suspect you may be taking BP meds and they may be imparting you ability to adapt to the heat. Send more details. When you go into the heat your body vasodilator to cool down. This may lower BP. Check you BP inside and outside when feeling faint.

Question 7

will spending 4 months of the summer living in southern florida cause early skin sagging in a 24 year old? or would more time need to be spent to see sagging? spf was used but not 100% of the time.

Accepted Answer

More time but yes: Sun damage skin can occur at any age. The longer the sun exposure the more likely the damage will be seen. Without more particulars I can't give you a specific answer but usual take more time. But how many years was it. 23 years?

Question 8

i need to find a dentist in jacksonville, florida. help.

Accepted Answer

Get a recommendation: The best way to find a new dentist is to ask you friends, neighbors, co-workers, colleagues, or other healthcare professionals in your area.  Unfortunately, just picking someone with an internet search or phone book is pot luck.  As a last resort you can research dentists on this site and check their credentials and recommendations.

Question 9

in florida what is the cutoff week for having an abortion? i am 14 weeks.

Accepted Answer

Still ok: Check out the guttmacher institute website. Up until viability (24 weeks) florida's only restriction is that the procedure be performed by a licensed physician. However, the more time elapses, the more complicated and expensive the options.

Question 10

cost of an induced labor when you have no medical insurance? living in florida

Accepted Answer

Varies: If you are uninsured and qualify for medicaid, then you should start the process of applying for this program.  They will cover anything that occurred in the three months prior.  If you do not qualify for assistance, my guess is that the cost of an admission to labor a delivery will cost as much as 10-15k.  This is a guess and you would have to check with your local hospitals.
