Is there any risk of acquiring HCV or HIV if you swallow a 'speed bomb' (powder wrapped in a piece of paper and swallowed)? Can you get infected via the substance itself, or do infections occur only when sharing needles, syringes, etc.? I am worried since I swallowed three 'speed bombs' in a club.

I have been diagnosed with a crushed knee cap. What are the treatments for that? I had a total knee replacement done by Doctor Thurston in Ottawa, Ontario, and experienced a fall sometime after, possibly in April or May. The knee in question started to bend more than it should and became harder to do straight leg raises.

I've been experiencing morning gas and abdominal discomfort for 1.5 months, extreme nausea at night for 2 weeks, burping for 2 weeks, and a metallic taste in my mouth on and off for 1 week. My stools are soft and lighter orange, sometimes appearing green. I had an endoscope in late January for a suspected ulcer and have been taking a PPI, but it hasn't helped. Should I be concerned about pancreatic cancer and insist on an abdominal ultrasound?
