If you consumed pink cotton candy and your urine turned pink, it is likely that the food coloring is responsible for the color change. Many artificially colored foods, including cotton candy, can cause temporary changes in urine color. This effect is harmless and usually resolves once the food has been processed by your body.

A.o.A...my mother of 85, completely on bed she is a diabetic. Today she is sweating slightly.
Female | 85
Excessive sweating might signal her blood sugar is dipping low. That's common for folks with diabetes. Give her something sugary - a candy or juice should do the trick. Also, check those glucose readings. Staying hydrated helps too. But if the sweating persists or odd symptoms come up, don't hesitate to loop in her doctor for advice.

You should first take your son to a paediatrician whose diagnosis might be more accurate and efficient because your son also suffers from asthma. Besides, the pediatrician can refer a pulmonologist in you have to. The patient shouldn't take drugs on his own, but should only use medications prescribed by a doctor.
