As time goes by, can the medication stabilize me enough that when I go to get off amytriptaline, serequel, and epilium, it won't be that bad? My psychiatrist thinks I'll be okay on lithium and mirapexin, but he wants to do it all continuously. I've had enough; it's been a year of hell and I want to see myself back for 6 months before attempting to go through whatever I have to go through again.

I am a 50-year-old female with a hemoglobin of 15.6 and a hematocrit of 46.6. I experience random periods of muscle weakness, extreme fatigue, memory/concentration issues, and have developed multiple food sensitivities, including gluten intolerance. I also have a positive ANA, high cholesterol, normal glucose, and a small cyst in the center of my brain. What could be causing these symptoms and what further tests or steps should I take?

I had terrible heartburn for the past two days and tried using Tummy Zen! Roland’s and caraway seeds, which seemed to help but resulted in red and hot cheeks. I usually take Nexium but ran out two days ago. I also had a cortisone shot in my left shoulder two days ago and get monthly Marcaine shots in my hip. Why did this happen, and what should I do about my heartburn and facial redness?

I accidentally swallowed 1/5 of an aluminum wrapper while eating a Reese's piece candy. I'm 5 weeks pregnant. What should I do? Will this harm my baby?

I was diagnosed with constipation and took a laxative, but now I'm experiencing nausea, vomiting black stuff, extreme fatigue, loss of appetite, and lack of energy. I have a thyroid problem. Could this be a small bowel obstruction?
