passagesmalibu.com - In a report released in July 2005, the National Center
on Addiction and Substance Abuse (CASA) at Columbia University said that
prescription drug abuse is skyrocketing. In the United States there is a
startling difference between the death rates caused by prescription drugs
and more well known killers of our time.More. (Health)

Ok, I've been taking tylenol and ibuprofen for 6 weeks for my 'damn' lupus
flair on top of 80mg/12hr oxycontin, 30mg/oxycodone/8hr and my joint pain is
driving me crazy, and yes I went to the ER "again" and they took xrays
again, morphine and released, I'm so out there as to what is causing this
flair and really need suggestion on what to do about this type pain, I'm not
suppose to even take tylenol to start with and ibeu gives me big rashes if I
take to much, I'm guessing some type of steriod, please, any suggestions
would be greatly apprecated so much in advance...Joe

My name is Ji Soo Yi, and I am a Ph.D. student in the Health Systems
Institute at Georgia Tech. Our research team and I have developed a
tool to help people choose a nursing home. I wrote this message in
this newsgroup since I believe that some of people here might be
interested in this project.

As many of you already know, choosing a nursing home is an emotion-
laden, difficult decision that can be often made under enormous stress
and time pressure. To make matters worse, there are so many things to
consider in choosing a good one among so many nursing homes. I noticed
that many people were misguided and ended up choosing a bad one for
their loved ones even though there is so much information on the
Internet these days.
