I have a severe stinging/burning sensation that runs from the top of my right ankle where my foot begins and continues down and around the bottom of the ankle bone. If I straighten my ankle in a ballerina toe stand motion, it is excruciatingly painful until it is at full stretch. Occasionally, I feel a nerve sensation from my heel through the bottom of my foot into the ankle that makes it feel like my ankle is going to give out. What could be causing this pain, and what steps should I take to diagnose and treat it?

For the past few months, I have had very irregular periods, occurring 21-23 days apart and lasting about 10 days each. I am 41 years old and take an anti-depressant (Lexapro) daily. Could either of these factors be causing my irregular periods?

My aunt was initially hospitalized for pneumonia at the age of 78, was placed on a ventilator multiple times, and now shows no response to commands. She has been in ICU for 6 weeks and is worse than ever. What could have happened, and does she have a chance of returning to a normal life? If not, what aftercare can the family expect, and how long can she survive with a trach and feeding tube?

I have uneven size pupils, with the left side being bigger and the right side smaller, and this difference has been getting worse over time. I also have other symptoms such as sensitivity to light, headaches, achy feeling in my eyes, mood swings, fatigue, tingling in my right shoulder and arm, and sudden heartburn. Could these symptoms be related, and what could be the cause of the uneven pupils?
