1 AnswerCats1 decade agoHow long will a measles-like rash with mono last?
I was in the emergency room yesterday due to my belief I was having an allergic reaction. I've been having very painful sore throats and I was treated with an IV of Benadryl, Medrol, Pepcid and a saline solution. My throat feels so much better but my measles like rash (it's not measles as I've had the rubella vaccine) and reddended face are still apparent though swelling in my face went down considerably. It's not a painful rash by any means. Should I just let this run its course or should I be taking something?
1 AnswerInfectious Diseases1 decade agoI have swollen lymph nodes on the left side of my head and milky white spots on my tonsils; what causes this?
I have been on Augmentin 875 mg for about 5 days now for a bad sinus infection which has since all but gone away and developed a bad throat pain 2 days into the antibiotic which resulted in swollen lymph nodes on the left side of my head. Ever since then, I have noticed more milky white patches on both tonsils with the left tonsil looking very inflammed. I was told this wasn't a fungal infection and it could be viral. Any ideas?

Since it's a new plane, I'm wondering how one becomes type-rated on a completely new type of aircraft. I know there are similarities to the Boeing 767 and other planes but the 787 is a different aircraft entirely.
