My wife has been experiencing pain at the base of her head on the right side, headaches, numbness, tingling, burning sensations in her arms, hands, and feet, balance issues, fatigue, and weight loss. She has seen multiple specialists and undergone various tests, including X-rays, MRIs, and an EMG, but no definitive cause has been found. She has been tested for autoimmune diseases and infections, with only slightly elevated liver counts due to pain meds. The neurosurgeon suggested seeing an autoimmune doctor, but she wants to see a neurologist. What autoimmune diseases could cause these symptoms, and what other central nervous system (CNS) disorders should she be evaluated for?

I accidentally got silver sulfadiazine cream on my hands and then ate a tortilla and a cookie, which resulted in a weird taste in my mouth, stomach discomfort, a burning sensation in my left foot, and a headache. I'm concerned about potential harm to my insides. What should I do?

I took Plan B two nights ago (which contains levonorgestrel), but I had to take amoxicillin last night for my wisdom teeth extraction. Does the antibiotic reverse the effects of the emergency contraception?

I was carrying my 40-pound child and a basket of laundry through deep snow up a long driveway, and began to feel a fast pounding heartbeat, then felt immediately nauseated and dizzy, lightheaded. This was 7 hours ago, and I still feel a little off, with occasional fast pounding heartbeats. I am 140 lbs, 5'6, 42 years old, female, have excellent cholesterol, and had a recent EKG, which was fine. Should I be worried?

I'm recovering from a stomach flu and it seems to have worsened my GERD symptoms. I have constant burning in my throat below my adam's apple, and every time I burp, I reflux a liquid into my throat that feels acidic. I also feel a heaviness or muscle spasm in the same area. Additionally, I took Pepto Bismol and now my stools are black. Can Pepto Bismol cause black stools, and can a stomach flu worsen GERD symptoms?
