A rat bit me last week and I already got a TT injection along with an anti-rabies shot. I'm wondering if I should go for the other two anti-rabies injections or if I'm good since I'm not really feeling any pain where the scratch is. Is there another step I should be taking here?

Yes, Tryptomer (Amitriptyline) can cause heartburn as a side effect, especially when taken in the evening.
Other possible gastrointestinal side effects of Tryptomer include nausea, dry mouth, and constipation.
To alleviate nighttime heartburn, consider taking Tryptomer in the morning or with food.
You can also try antacids or acid reducers, like ranitidine, to help manage heartburn symptoms.
Consult your doctor or prescribing physician to discuss alternative dosing schedules or medications.
They can help you balance the benefits of Tryptomer with its side effects.

View allI'm a 32-year-old guy and I've been dealing with something odd for a while. My body, especially my hands, always feel really hot, and people often ask me if I have a fever when I shake their hands. This has been going on for many years and I'm starting to get worried. Could there be something going on with my health? Any advice would be appreciated.
it sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of hyperhidrosis, which is excessive sweating that can make your body feel hot. I recommend trying anticholinergic medications such as Glycopyrrolate. This medication can help reduce excessive sweating and make you feel more comfortable. Remember to stay hydrated and avoid triggers that may worsen your symptoms.

I'm a bit worried about my C-reactive protein levels. I just got my results back, and it's showing 41 mgL. Can you tell me what this means for my health? And do you have any advice on how I could bring that number down?
C-reactive protein (CRP) is a marker of inflammation in the body. A level of 41 mgL indicates moderate inflammation. To reduce it, you can consider taking over-the-counter nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen. Additionally, lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, and following an anti-inflammatory diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats can help reduce inflammation. High levels of CRP are associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease, autoimmune disorders, and chronic inflammatory conditions. It is important to address the underlying cause of inflammation to prevent long-term health complications.
