My son has a mark on his arm that we think might be a bite, but we're not sure. He says it doesn’t hurt or itch. What is this and what should we do?

I'm concerned about my apnea and its impact on my weight loss efforts. I'm also worried about my health, particularly the risk of heart attack or stroke as I increase my exercise intensity. Additionally, I'm confused about my A1C test results, which were interpreted as pre-diabetic by my doctor, but I don't understand the numbers or what they mean for my health.

I have been binge drinking for a week non-stop and am ready to stop, but I'm scared of withdrawal symptoms. Should I go to the ER, and is it safe to wait 13 hours before taking Librium if I promise to stay away from alcohol?

Can prediabetes be diagnosed using capillary blood from an at-home glucometer, or does it require venous blood in a lab? If I get fasting readings of 101 but my daily readings are usually around 80, should I get tested in a lab? Is capillary blood slightly higher than venous blood? If I fast for 13 hours, will that give me a true reading, or is that too long?
