My husband has been dry heaving and vomiting since early this morning with sweats, while I ate the same thing and am fine. I have given him ginger ale and a cracker to ease his stomach, but it does not help. He did mow yesterday evening. What do you think it could be?

I have spinal fusion from L3 to T11 and recent MRI indicates epidural lipomatosis, L5-S1 asymmetric high-grade foraminal stenosis, and perineal neuropathy. I am currently being treated with Oxycodone, Lyrica, and Methocarbamol, but the pain is increasing. Are there other alternatives for pain management?

Eight weeks after a fall, my left knee still hurts, and I have a history of blood clots affecting my left knee. I am on low-dose warfarin with a target INR of 1.5 to 2. I live in far Western MA and am willing to travel to Boston for surgery. Can you help me find an experienced knee surgeon who can plan the surgery with a vein specialist to preserve my remaining venous circulation?
