I am a 51-year-old woman past menopause, 60 lbs heavier than in my 30s, not sleeping well, taking 1 1/2 - 2 Ambien nightly, causing night eating and memory issues. I feel exhausted, foggy, and cranky. I had a sleep study suggesting sleep apnea and a stressful job with financial issues. What kind of doctor should I see and what treatments might help?

My 6-month-old daughter has been experiencing severe dry and itchy skin with a goosebump-like appearance for the past 3 months. She has seen a dermatologist who diagnosed her with chronic allergic dermatitis and prescribed antifungal medications, which did not help. Currently, I am using shea butter and olive oil for her skin. What could be causing this condition and how can it be effectively treated and prevented?

I have lost 35 lbs, am now extremely fatigued, my joints ache so much I can barely type or move. The worst are my hands and knees. My body aches like I have a fever but I don't. All of this has been going on for about 5-6 months, starting with the weight loss then progressing into further symptoms. My orthostatic hypotension is getting worse and I have fainted. My brain feels like it is in a constant blur, and I'm extremely frustrated because I don't have any answers. What could be causing these symptoms and what can I do to alleviate the pain and fatigue?

Hi, the last time I had my period there was spotting for about seven days, then it stopped and then spotting again for two days. Now my period is late for about 6 days - just kind of wondering about this?

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?
