  • Why do I get a gag reflex when I eat sausage?

    For as long as I can remember I cannot literally stomach sausage. Whether its links, patties, chopped. By themself or mixed with something.

    If I try eating it, I get a gag reflex. Its hard for me to swallow. I could not even be told but as soon as I try eating it. I have trouble keeping it down as I gag it back up right away.

    Why. Im not allergic as its not the same reaction. Some think maybe I ate a bad sausage when I was little and body reacts

  • Can two apartments share one ant nest?

    I have had ants for about 2-3 weeks now. Ive tried everything to get rid of them. Had pest control come, spray, bait traps, gel. they disapear then come back.

    Now fast forward to today and the people who live in apartment next to mine (one building, 2 floors, 8 apartments) tell they too have ants in their kitchen.

    is it possible its the same nest?

  • How long does it normally take for gel to kill off ants in my apartment? Also can ants catch on if gel is poison?

    Had them for almost a week. for first days I killed them when I saw them. Then pest control came and sprayed, the ants were ignoring the bait traps I had. Then pest control came back sprayed more and put a gel in traps and along wall which seems to be working drawing them in. I see far less after a day but the ones i do see seem to now ignore gel mostly

  • Where ar the black ants coming from?

    Yesterday I noticed tiny black ants in my kitchen. tiny little groups on floor. killed them. then noticed some one counter. thought i got them all but they are coming everywhere now in kitchen.

    mostly at night. I have lived in my apartment for 6 years and this is a first? The office has a guy come once in a while to spray the areas theyll likely nest.

    now a couple of months ago I had to bring in a stone basket from the outside as it was a fire hazzard. Could they have come from that?

  • What should I do when amazon personally delivers my package but drops it at wrong home?

    I live in an apartment neighborhood. I live in one of dozens of buildings. For the second straight time the amazon delivery man (they drive an amazon van) dropped a package at the wrong building. I have no idea where.All I know is saw them turn on the wrong street (too far to wave them down). the site says delivered and has a picture....of not my doormat. i tried to wave them down as they drove by but they didnt stop.

    I contacted amazon and they said nothing they can do about it. Only thing I can do is hope the people drop my package off by me. if not then theyll refund or send me a replacement with a promise it wont happen a third time. i said id wait to see what happens before wanting action on their part.

    Now i wrote a note and left by the mailboxes hoping they see it. But what else can I do. walk in the direction I saw them turn and hope its nearby? contact them and demand they fire the driver for doing it twice. I live on the road that is the entrance to the apartments. They drove on the road to get to the area.

  • Whats wrong with my toilet?

    A few weeks ago it started gurggling. if flushed it wont go down. usually it would fix itself after a small time. it would happen twice a day at the same time.

    a plumber came checked it. did a jet through the pipes. that seemed to work but 2 weeks later its back. whats odd is it was fine 30 minutes earlier when i flushed. same times again. i called my apartment matience today they found nothing wrong. Snake went down with no issues.

    how can the problem return if 2 weeks ago they ran a jet of water through?

    also if i plunge water can be heard in the sink. when the water goes down on its own sound in the sink

  • Why is my toilet bubling and not going down? (happens then is fine...3 times in 24 hours)?

    I live in an apartment building area (serious of buildings). had mantience come by. they used a snake they said felt like a small clog to fix it. then 24 hours after first time happened again.

    what happens is toilet bubbles. if i flush wont go down right away but will slowly (unless I plunge). if i dont flush at bubbles water will go down on its own. 2 times within 24 hours and once in between.

  • What is wrong with me?

    For a week Ive been having aches in the upper left portion of my body near the shoulder. It feels sore whenever I get up or lay down on it.

    I would say a pulled muscle but its been a week with no signs of getting better

    ive tried googling my symptoms but I see a lot of different explanations. from working out too hard (haven't) from heart disease (doubt it due to no other signs plus its when I move)

  • Do I have a dog allergy?

    last December my parents got a chiguagua. Lately I have been noticing whenever I spend a good amount of time I get a sore throat. which goes away the next day when I am home.

    I have never had symptoms around dogs prior. I had a dog before and been around a lot of dogs in the past. the only difference is the chiguagua likes to lick a lot especially in the face.

    question is...do I have a dog allergy to this dog?

  • A few questions about Slingtv?

    I cut the cord (dropped cable) for a couple of years. I have found ways of watching certain shows but am considering getting slingtv. I know there are two types basic (1 stream at a time) and a similar one with regional sports channels instead of espn (3 streams at a time)

    -Is it possible to get the "stream 3 times at once" and have espn? or is it regional only?

    -does it has a on demand service

    -is the picture quality good?

    -how does it work? (how do I select channels on my Roku)

  • Will Blood Bank use a half a pint of blood?

    I recently donated blood. I always do whenever I get a chance. I have never had an issue donating till now.

    For some reason it was taking longer then usual. The attendents were checking and talking. I asked them what was wrong. They said the blood flow is slow (which never happens...usually I am in and out quick. after a while the checked my vein and said it healed and closed quick. and there was no point in trying to force new blood out of me.

    So they stopped with the bag at about half full. They said they'll do what they can with half a pint. They thanked me, made sure I was fine enough to leave.

    Can that half pint still be used?

  • Is my theory for "You, Me and the Apocalypse" crazy?

    my theory is Ariel aka White Horse is the anti Christ...and Jamie is the second coming.

    Ok...white horse alias could mean he is a horseman. But hear me out:

    In the bible, it says the anti Christ will be a super deceiver. Ariel has been doing that so...even trying to convince the world the Apocalypse is a lie created by the government. The bible also states he will have followers...Ariel has such.

    Ariel and Jamie's mother is confirmed to be named Mary. Jamie was found in a box...in the model town...it looks like a manger.
