Are you sick of COVID news yet?

It certainly is an important topic to cover. But sometimes I crave some more lighthearted stories to brighten my day.

For instance, one of the women I work with just got a brand new puppy. It’s a black doodle of some kind… pretty cute, I have to say.

She’s been going on and on about the puppy’s cute antics as it learns how to play and behave. Apparently, this pup has stolen my friend’s heart hook, line and sinker. Continue reading →

How do you help your body heal from a viral infection?

Ask a family member, co-worker or friend and you’ll get many different “perfect” remedies.

Some folks swear by hot-toddies — a mix of hot water, whiskey, honey and lemon. Others will share a similar recipe with tea and ginger or cinnamon substituted for the whiskey.

One of my patients even claims a snifter of brandy will knock a virus right out of you! Then, another patient likes to chomp down on fresh garlic and onion at the first sign of the sniffles to stop a virus in its tracks. Continue reading →

The situation is changing rapidly as the world reacts to the coronavirus pandemic.

I don’t use the word ‘pandemic’ to frighten you. Instead, it’s simply a term that means the disease has spread through multiple countries. So by definition, it’s a worldwide pandemic. It’s gone from Asia, to Europe, to North America.

You’ve likely noticed that widespread traveling is becoming less and less likely. Still, there may be situations where you are forced to travel in close quarters with others in the coming weeks. Continue reading →

Things are going to be a bit strange for the next few weeks. The coronavirus pandemic has been a non-stop presence in the news and in people’s minds.

In fact, I was thinking about it myself on the way to Publix the other night. I was headed there to pick up some water and frozen foods. So I could be prepared for the days ahead.

Medical errors can be scary…

A few years ago, I was in the ER with my friend because he was having a week of increasing lower abdominal pain and constipation. It was below his belly button and a little bit to the left. With his family history and after a quick exam, I was confident I knew his problem.

This was a clear case of diverticulosis — a dangerous condition where marble-sized pouches in the colon collect stool, bacteria, and undigested food particles.

So, I sat with my friend for five long hours waiting for the ER doctors to do their job. Continue reading →

You had a fun night with friends and drank a few glasses of wine. It’s an early day tomorrow. So — without thinking — you pop a few Tylenol and head off to bed.

When you wake up, you’re in a hospital hooked up to IVs with life-threatening liver damage due to a drug overdose.

Liver damage… due to Tylenol? Absolutely. Continue reading →

When I was a kid, my father showed me how to cut a little X into the side of a ripe and juicy pomegranate. Then, he’d have me put the fruit to my lips, squeezing around the fruit with all my strength, as I sucked on the sweet nectar.

As long as you’re not wearing a white shirt, it’s the very best way to enjoy pomegranate juice.

Why the story? Continue reading →

I just love cranberry sauce.

And not just at Thanksgiving. I love it year round. In fact, I go to Trader Joe’s in the fall and buy two whole cases of the stuff to last me the year.

Mix in some orange and lemon zest… I just love it!

Now let’s be clear. I am not talking about that Ocean Spray large, loose jelly monster that comes out of a can… completely intact with ridges still on it. Continue reading →
