During the night, my ears secrete oil and when I wake up, they are peeling or very chapped. I can pull the dead skin off. I lotion every morning and have tried hydrocortisone, vaseline, and other treatments. I think it might be related to the oil they produce at night. What could be causing this and what can I do about it?

When would be the most likely month I got pregnant if my baby is due on April 16th, and I had a scan on December 14th that dated me at 22 weeks and four days? Is it possible to have conceived in June, July, or August, given that my morning sickness started on August 12th?

I have been experiencing various oral symptoms, including white spots, red spots, and changes in the appearance of my tongue and cheeks. I have had biopsies and examinations by multiple healthcare professionals, but I am still concerned about the possibility of cancer or precancerous conditions. What could these symptoms be, and should I be worried about them?

I have been experiencing lightheadedness, nausea, syncope, severe headaches, tingling in the hands and feet, severe fatigue, low heart rate, low/normal blood pressure, and recently developed lumps behind my right ear, swollen thyroid gland, and urinary problems. All tests have come back negative for conditions like Lupus, Lyme disease, and heart problems. What could be causing these symptoms and are they related?

Since being put on verapamil 120 mg q.d. by an electrophysiologist (EP), my PVCs are still active. My magnesium has been running low as well (last value 1.4). I've been taking Mag-Ox twice a day, but my heart rate gets irregular when I do. For the past three days, I've had PVCs. I am almost at my wits end. I went by the Cardiology Department this morning and told them and they set me up with another appt. with the EP in a week from now. I just don't know what to do. I can't take HRTs because of my family history of heart disease and strokes. This has been going on since 10/2010, right after my period stopped in August 2010, and I need some answers. I'm wondering if I should get a second opinion from another cardiologist and EP because to me these guys are too laid back about this. Please help. I have an upcoming lab band surgery and the surgeon wil not operate with PVCs going on.

I am a female and I have blood in my urine, mostly in the morning for the past two days. There is also a strange sensation when I urinate, and I suspect it may be a urinary tract infection. I do not have health insurance or a job, so I want to avoid going to the doctor if possible. Can a UTI clear up on its own?
