Avatar f tn A huge toxic spill in Alberta, Canada, is raising more questions about the safety of the proposed Keystone XL pipeline, as well as the safety of Canada’s own pipeline network. The company responsible for the spill, Apache Corp., a Texas-based company, kept its size quiet for 12 days after the spill was first discovered. The Dene Tha First Nation tribe, which is dependent on much of the land that’s been destroyed in the spill, is understandably livid about the entire situation.

Cornell Global Labor Institute’s (GLI) analysis of the project has found that these numbers are unsubstantiated, and that the project will produce far fewer jobs than they claim. In fact, the construction of KXL may destroy more jobs than it creates." "KXL’s U.S. Project Budget is $3.3 billion, NOT $7 billion: TransCanada claims that KXL is a $7 billion project.
Avatar n tn Pus means there is an infection, and at this point I would see your doctor. You may have something embedded in your knee that you know nothing about, and until that is removed it will stay infected. A friend of mine woke up with extreme pain on one side of his stomach and when he went to the hospital they found a piece of metal embedded in his stomach. He was in construction years prior to this and still doesn't recall any incident where this could have happened.

Avatar m tn With regards to asbestos exposure, he should discuss the situation with other employees, his employee health and safety representative, and his employers. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) can provide more information or make an inspection.

Avatar n tn Chloroform is a colorless liquid and was used as as an anesthetic. It has been abandoned due to safety concerns. It affects the liver, kidneys, and heart. If skin is exposed to liquid chloroform, it will promote formation of rash. When it is exposed to oxygen and sunlight, a chemical reaction forms phosgene, a toxic gas. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.

152660 tn?1291755571 Hi All! We are getting ready to begin finishing my parent's basement into an apartment for myself. We will be doing most of the work ourselves mainly during weekends and will have someone coming in to work on the floor who will be using jackhammers for probably 2 days then put in two egress windows. We will have a plumber and electrician come in to work too. We will probably have people in for 6-7 days at once and then plumber and electrician do more later.
Avatar f tn Stupid question but it is dangerous? Do I really need a doc? I've broken my nose twice before and turned down surgery during one of them. I'll turn down any facial construction again.but I'm finding it hard to breath out of my right nostril. No significant pain...it feels bruised with mild-moderate soreness. Some swelling, one black eye on the left side. Normally, if I weren't pregnant I'd ignore it.
1301089 tn?1290666571 Isn't this nice! We're giving those dear little drug smugglers and murderers their own park. Never mind it's American National Parkland. Funded and paid for with American tax money. I guess actually guarding it with armed Guardsmen might insult someone.
Avatar f tn I had a friend who dressed as a construction worker ( hard hat, neon safety vest) and she painted a stop sign on her tummy that said "caution BUMP" I thought it was super cute.
Avatar n tn My question is can they use nitrous oxide for such a procedure? How safe is it? What are the other forms of anesthesia commonly used on toddlers at the dentist?
Avatar m tn I’m concerned about exposure to construction dust leading to silicosis. I work in a theater that’s been under construction for a few months. They are installing new stadiums and seats. I know they are drilling/jackhammering concrete, mixing concrete and other general construction tasks like that. I try to be careful to avoid the areas where the construction is heaviest but some times my tasks force me to move through them.
Avatar f tn This machine features a motor with a 2.75 hp rating. The two floor-levelers provide some amount of leveling adjustment. Performance on our durability test - simulating a half-year of usage - was fair, showing noticeable signs of wear. Safety: The "stop" button size was considered excellent. The magnetic style safety-key disengaged without issue when a user drifted toward the end of the running belt, which stopped the motor and running belt as expected.
Avatar m tn Some bacteria change calcium sulfate, the major component of wallboard, into hydrogen sulfide. If construction and demolition debris contain large quantities of wallboard, large amounts of hydrogen sulfide can be formed. Production is greatest when the wallboard is finely crushed and when there is little oxygen, such as when the debris is buried and soaked with water.
Avatar f tn I was taken out a month after I was born (nowhere serious) and I ended up inhaling something around a construction site that paralyzed me and I was in the hospital from a month and a half to a year old... it was just bad timing.... but the other day I saw this mom friend of mine take her 1 week old to bingo... I was kinda taken back, but only because of my experience.....how soon is too soon to take baby out, not camping of course theres always next year.
867582 tn?1311627397 Having the forms mailed ahead of time is a great idea. I always get bogged down filling out the paperwork . . . plus, the forms are such tiny print it is tiring to read them. Was your neuro actually entering info on another patient, or were you simply saying it could happen?
Avatar m tn Thank you very much for your response and information. It is greatly appreciated. It has been very difficult trying to locate an expert, at the very least, provide direction or review my mother's medical records to provide expert testimony or thoughts regarding the inhalation of cement dust to someone with a compromised breathing condition.
