Answer to Question 1

Esophageal surgery may take a long time to heal, but at the absolute minimum, it would be two weeks before anything should be eaten. The usual progression from clear liquids to full liquids could be used here. Depending on her tolerance, she may stay at full liquids longer than usual. Nutritional supplements could and should be used at this time. After full liquids, a very soft diet would be in order.

Answer to Question 2

If CJ does not breath deep enough, he will not expand his alveoli, resulting in their collapse. This decreases the exchange of CO2 for O2 and causes his arterial CO2 to increase and O2 to decrease, thus worsening his condition. The collapsed alveoli can also trap bacteria in the lungs.

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
