This morning I woke up feeling tired around 6:30 am. By 8:30 am, I started having pressure-like pain in my chest and shoulders, nausea, shortness of breath, and cold sweats which lasted about 30 minutes. I then felt better but the symptoms increased in strength. I fell asleep for an hour and a half and feel fine now. Not sure what I should do next. My husband is away on a work trip till Friday.

My CBC results show high platelet levels (440 last month, 475 this week) and high BASO levels (1.7). I'm experiencing unexplained pain in my legs (muscles), back, neck, and tingling and burning in my hands and fingers. What could these symptoms and blood test results indicate?

My friend has severe neck pain when she moves her head upwards toward the ceiling and a slight trembling in her right hand. She has had these symptoms for 2 days, with less severity yesterday. There is no visible swelling, her temperature and pulse are normal, and she has not experienced any recent trauma or injuries. What could be causing these symptoms and what can be done to alleviate them?

I have shortness of breath and cannot expand my lungs, especially when climbing stairs. I have been diagnosed with anxiety by a local doctor and have had several tests including a chest x-ray, echocardiography, stress cardiac test, and complete blood count, all of which were normal. What could be causing this issue, and what further steps should I take?

I have been experiencing clavicle and back pain near the shoulder blades, as well as pain in the left side of my feet at the mid to front area for the last five weeks. The pain is exacerbated by physical work, office work on a computer, and at bedtime. I also have numbness in my hands, which is worse after ulnar nerve surgery. I am 34 years old, male, and take tramadol and zopiclone. I have had an MRI and blood tests, but no significant findings were reported, except for borderline creatinine levels attributed to physical work. What could be causing these symptoms, and what further steps should I take for diagnosis and treatment?

My urobilinogen is brown on a urine strip, my specific gravity (SG) is high, and I have extreme bloating in the evenings for a couple of weeks. I have been hydrating for almost 24 hours, and my urine is now clear, but the urobilinogen remains the same. How many days should it take for my SG to be completely normal after being fully hydrated, and should the urobilinogen normalize as soon as the SG does, or do I need to wait more days? Additionally, what can I do about the extreme bloating in the evenings?
