I have been experiencing green stools for over a month. I am a Type 2 diabetic with an abdominal hernia and take multiple medications. My doctor is not concerned, but I am wondering what could be causing this and if my abdominal hernia could be related.

I got bitten by a small spider 4 weeks ago. Initially, it was red, swollen, and itchy. I used antihistamines and numbing cream, which helped, but I still have a small hard lump underneath where I was bitten. Why is that?

My accident insurance said they would pay me $200/day if my perforation of the colon was considered an accident. What kind of information do I need to determine if this is an accident or a complication of a colonoscopy?

I had a gastric emptying scintigraphy (oatmeal) which showed a delay in the half time (66 minutes, high normal range 47 minutes) but normal emptying at 3 hours. The radiologist diagnosed it as 'mild delayed gastric emptying.' I have several questions: 1) Is this truly mild gastroparesis? 2) Will it progress? 3) Do you expect to feel better with diet? 4) Do you still think it is not a serious disease?
