Q:

What are the symptoms of hypoglycemia?

A:

Hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar, can have various symptoms depending on how low your blood sugar has dropped. When it is just entering the low blood sugar range, you can feel shaky or weak. When your low blood sugar is more moderate or severe, you can have trouble concentrating or feel confused. If you have questions about how to recognize low blood sugar, you can ask your family doctor.

Q:

How can I make sure new medications are safe for me?

A:

You should have a regular family doctor, who knows you and your medical condition, to ensure your regular drugs are safe for you and safe to take together. It is important to remember that over-the-counter medications can also interact with certain prescription medications, so you should ask your doctor or the pharmacist if an over-the-counter drug you are considering is safe for you to take.

Q:

How do you catch pneumonia?

A:

Pneumococcal pneumonia is a bacterial infection, and very similarly to a cough, or a cold or a flu, this type of infection can be spread via the air. Airborne droplets when someone coughs or sneezes, or if there’s secretions that someone comes into contact to, these are the methods in which you can acquire a pneumococcal infection.
