I have had pain in my left jaw for several months, which I initially attributed to my lupus. However, I now have pain behind my left ear that occurs only when I press on the back of the ear. The pain is exacerbated by eating and opening my mouth wide, and my jaw clicks. There are no headaches, ear infections, sinus problems, or dental issues, and no tenderness on the right ear. What could be causing this pain?

How can I lose the extra weight I have gained around my belly? I am 53 and going through menopause. I haven't had a menstrual period in about 3 years. I have had to buy larger size pants. This weight gain happened overnight. I have tried to do crunches and eat less but to no success. I would appreciate any advice you can give me. Do you think it could be a hormonal change? Should I get on hormones??

Can a HCG level of 425 at 3 weeks 5 days be okay or would this be considered an ectopic pregnancy even though an ultrasound taken this early cannot detect that it is?

I experience frequent urination, a feeling of fullness in the upper abdomen, weight gain, and increased hunger, which I satisfy by eating more frequently. I'm concerned about my health and would like to be tested. What do you recommend?
