Question by TTC for 2.5 years: Title for new book,,,?
Ok so I need help for titles with my book.
Synopsis: David is a 21 year old cocaine addicted young man who checks into a drug rehabilitation center “The Sentinel” and the book goes through his life from 5-24 years old, each chapter covering an age. So chapter 1 starts off with him running from an undercover cop, and getting sentenced to 6 months of rehabilitation. Then Chapter 2 starts out with him being 5 years old, etc. So these are the titles I have for this book:
1. Liquid Fear
2. Shades of Gray
3. Shadowy Hell
4. Down and Out

Question by Lisa: Can I drink alcohol while taking metronidazole antibiotics?
I am currently on my 5th day of taking 250mg of metronidazole to treat an infection I have. I hear that there are some side effects if you drink alcohol while on it. Has anyone ever drank while on it? And if so, what happened? Should I risk it? I won’t be drinking a lot. Just one or two drinks.

Best answer:

Answer by Marco’s girl
Alcohol should be avoided because metronidazole and alcohol together can cause severe nausea, vomiting, cramps, flushing, and headache…I wouldn’t chance getting sick over a few drinks. I did it once and spent about 4 hours in the bathroom.

Answer by RedHeadPhred
Were you drinking when you got “the infection”? Maybe you should leave the booze alone for awhile since it seems to cause problems, huh?
