My 14-year-old daughter has had severe knee pain since she was 2 years old. The pain has progressed to include her left hip and sometimes her ankles. She now goes to a pain clinic and is on hydrocodone and Mobic. She complains that her knees always feel cold from the inside and has developed numbness over her knees and left hip. Rheumatology and orthopedics have no answers. What could this be and what type of doctor should I take her to?

I want to know about the possible long-term effects of being treated for an impaired immune system by gene therapy as a kid. My doctor was Jerald C. Sadoff. I would rather do gene therapy than take pills, as the pills only work for a little while. Please help me find an organization that can help me with this.

My 87-year-old mother has been extremely active until recently, but now stays in bed most of the time due to lack of energy, eats very little, and occasionally feels nauseated with an upset stomach. She has been to a physician, had normal blood work, and was on various medications (lypotor, papavarin, meclazine, amatryplin) which were recently discontinued. The doctor saw no signs of dementia but couldn't identify the problem. What could be causing her symptoms?

I had surgery in October to remove one of my ovaries due to a cyst. Since then, I've had multiple blood tests and a normal Pap smear in November. However, I'm experiencing irritation in my cervix and bleeding after intercourse. Given that I had an oral encounter last May, could an STD be causing these symptoms, and would it have shown up in my blood tests?
