I have a blue lump on my tongue that has been identified as a hemangioma and is not cancerous. I am scheduled for an MRI to determine its depth and the best removal options. However, I experience a tingling sensation and dry mouth due to the lump pressing against my papillae. How can I manage these symptoms while waiting for the removal?

I am currently staying at a homeless shelter. Before I got here, I had an outreach case manager named Francisco, who works for the nonprofit that placed me at the shelter and is also employed at the hospital where I was hospitalized twice. Someone accessed my medical records illegally after I was discharged, and before I was placed in the shelter. Francisco will not tell me whether or not it was him, instead, he dropped me from his case load. My new case manager will not tell me either, and has said that Francisco apologized, but won't specify what he is apologizing for. Francisco also logged on as me at the Social Security Administration website without any prior discussion or authorization by me. This is in San Mateo County, California. What should I do?

I am a 44-year-old female with low iron due to a fibroid in my uterus. I had blood work done and I don't fully understand the results. Can you explain what the high and low values mean, and if I should be worried about being at risk for a heart attack?
