I have a lot of unresolved health issues and the more research I do, the more I believe I have Addison's disease or something similar. I don't think I am producing enough cortisol to heal my body.

I went through a period of heavy drinking, over-exercising, and stress, which led to heart palpitations and panic attacks. After several trips to the emergency room, I was told I have benign ectopic beats and a grade 2 heart murmur, which some doctors can hear and others cannot. I also had an ECG showing an incomplete branch bundle block, confirmed by a heart scan as a minor partial right branch bundle block. Despite being extremely fit, I worry that these conditions could harm me. Are these normal variants?

I have symptoms of nausea, pains in my abdomen, pains along my sides, my menstrual cycle is no longer regular, they get heavier at times and I will skip months. What could be the cause of these symptoms?

I'm a 25-year-old engaged woman to a 30-year-old man. We have two kids between us from past relationships. He had surgery about 4 years ago to prevent him from making children. We are hoping, wishing, & praying that the surgery can be revised. I don't know much about it, so would you tell me if it is possible? And if it is possible, can you refer us to a specialist?

I've had a sore throat for 5 days now, and nothing seems to help the pain. I don't have any other symptoms besides pain when I swallow and bad breath, regardless of how much I brush. Are there any specific treatments or further checks I should consider?
