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.

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 m tn CT is less used nowadays with the use of ICE (intracardiac ultrasound/echo) catheters during procedures. It helps to have the info and adds to the margin of safety especially if your EP wants to eliminate any structural surprises during the procedure.

My cardiologist said at the time that this procedure was not absolutely necessary as the blockage ( if any ) was minimimal. However he said he would like to know for sure.

Avatar n tn Age 1 to 10 years old. These medications are concious sedation meds. They have a very high index of safety because it is done based on a range of weights. Making it hard to over sed. Unless you just don't go by the guidelines. I would be very concerned as a professional and as a mother that all they were planning to use is Nitrous Oxide for their sedation.
