I live in a 600 square foot house with my parents and my mother's 7 dogs. The dogs frequently urinate and defecate inside the house, and my mother has placed 'dog-toilet papers' all over, including in front of the back door. I've recently given birth to a baby boy and am concerned about the health effects of the ammonia from the dogs' urine and feces, how long odors can persist in wood, and whether my baby could develop asthma, pneumonia, or bronchitis. Additionally, I am a single parent attending university with limited financial resources, and my mother has previously threatened suicide when asked to remove the dogs.

I have been experiencing tears in the lining of my anus over the past year, which have progressively worsened. These tears often bleed, cause pain and itching, and are exacerbated by hard stool, even when bowel movements are normal. I don't engage in anal sex. What could be causing these tears, and how can I heal them and prevent new ones from forming?

I have sarcoidosis and recently had a full blood work panel done. The results showed high levels of IgG (2263) and IgA (841), and low levels of Vitamin D3 (5) and Vitamin D2 (<4). My doctor advised me to take 2000 IU of Vitamin D3, but I cannot take more due to my sarcoidosis. What does this mean and what should I do?

A few years ago, I took a pharmacy tech class and a teacher who is a pharmacist said I had AIDS because I had a stink smell. I had an HIV test and a Western Blot test, both of which were negative. Is it true for her to say this?
