I have a question about drug testing. I am worried about a pre-employment drug test and a potential false positive. I have had 7 knee surgeries and a major hip reconstruction, and I have chronic pain. I don't take any prescribed painkillers or illegal drugs, but I do take Kratom occasionally. It is legal in my state. Will a 10-panel urine test detect Kratom, and how does it detect it if it is not illegal?

I was using Cipralex 20mg, then my doctor advised me to lower the dose to 15mg, then 10mg, then 5mg (and eventually stop it). After lowering the dose, I noticed some problems: pain in my lower back and a loss of feeling during orgasm when I masturbate. I'm currently taking 5mg and have had this problem for about a month. Can you help me with that? Is this from lowering the dose? Additionally, I went for a general check-up and found my SGPT level to be 90. Is this from Cipralex? I'm also taking multivitamins, vitamin D, and Glucosamine MSM. Is this risky? What should I do?

I spilled boiling water on my stomach and hand, resulting in what appears to be a second-degree burn with bright red skin, blisters, and broken skin. The burn feels extremely painful even after running it under cold water, and I don't have any medication. Is this normal, and what should I do?
