WebMD
Around 15 years back, I found myself covered in hives, clueless about the cause. My immediate resource? The internet, specifically WebMD. After inputting my symptoms, I braced myself for the diagnosis. Contact dermatitis? Drug allergy? Scabies? AIDS?! The mere thought sent shivers down my spine. Despite the fear, I mustered the courage to contact my doctor for an appointment.
At the clinic, I described my situation, fearing the worst. My doctor took his seat, examining me and inspecting a few welts.
"Do you think I have AIDS?" I asked nervously.
"Have you been sexually active?" he inquired.
"Not particularly," I replied.
With a solemn expression, he turned to jot down notes, his scribbles indecipherable to me. My mind raced through possible scenarios, heart pounding.
Turning back to face me, he queried, "What makes you think it's AIDS?"
Confident in my online research, I stated, "WebMD."
He paused, lowered his head, peering at me over his glasses. "You're getting an STD test," he informed me bluntly, before swiftly heading towards the door. Pausing before exiting, he emphasized, "Stay off WebMD." This admonition echoed when he later called with my negative results. And it wouldn't be the last time he warned me about relying on WebMD.

Nikki Kyle
Acting Appreciation
The adult entertainment industry has been grappling with a drug overdose problem for years. Performers endure intense pressure in maintaining certain appearances, performing high level of energy in a demanding schedule. Many resort to stimulants as well as opioids to manage physical and mental problems. These substance can quickly spiral out of control leading to addiction, and an increase risk of drug overdose and death.
Born on March 20, 1981, in Houston, Texas, Sarah Elizabeth Portland (aka Nikki Kyle) grew up in Allentown, Pennsylvania. Throughout her school years, Sarah was an outstanding student receiving recognition as a member of the National Honor Society. After high school, she attended Arizona State University where she also received recognition being named on the Dean's List.
Sarah's modeling career started in 2006, and the 5'0" petite beauty appeared in only a few adult films. It is said, her professional modeling career took a turn towards substance abuse and addiction.
In 2012, she was arrested for possession of a controlled substance in Florida. A year later, she moved to Las Vegas and began escorting under the name Kat Kora. On October 8, 2018, she passed away, presumably from a drug overdose.
In her obituary, it read, "...Sarah was a beautiful, kind and caring woman. Despite her struggles and challenges, Sarah found the strength to put her baby's needs above her own by finding a loving family to raise her child." Additionally, her family requested loved ones donate to Women for Sobriety, a peer-support program tailored for women overcoming substance use disorders.
