I have been experiencing persistent eye issues, including flaking skin on the upper and lower eyelids, burning, itching, a gritty feel, and a painful split in the upper lid's center crease. My tear ducts are almost non-functional, and I have lost almost all of my eyelashes and eyebrows. Both my personal doctor and an optometrist have been unable to help. I have tried eliminating makeup, using antibiotics and creams, and various eye drops, but nothing has worked. I suspect it might be a skin fungus or eye mites, but I can't find a dermatologist to see for at least 2-3 weeks. What can I do to alleviate my symptoms and confirm the cause of my eye problems?

I am 17 years old and usually experience a lot of pain at the beginning of my period, with heavy bleeding and clotting, which then tapers off normally. This month, I had no pain, a little red blood, and now for 10 days after my period, I have been experiencing brownish discharge. Some days it is a little brown, and some days it is a little more. I am not sexually active and am a virgin. I take a 'Mega-Food' vitamin supplement and had two major surgeries last year where I needed blood transfusions, with the last one in November. Could these factors be related to my current menstrual changes?

Why don't doctors or pharmacists include the purpose of the medication on the prescription label, instead of just stating 'take by mouth'? This would be particularly helpful for older people.

I have diarrhea every day, all day, sometimes with stomach cramping and nausea, but not always. This has been going on for months, and it's not triggered by foods. I'm not losing weight, but rather gaining weight. What could be the cause and what should I do?
