I have a shed next to tall trees where roofing granules have fallen over 15 years. I'm concerned about inhaling dust from these trees, possibly containing silica. Additionally, I might have inhaled silica at a construction site a few months ago. What are the health risks of these exposures, and can silica attach to tree leaves and remain there for years?

What is the latest treatment for chronic and active Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) and nerve pain, especially in the context of co-infections like Lyme, Bartonella, and Babesia? I have been treating these conditions aggressively for a year and a half without much success, and my main symptom is severe nerve pain that has persisted for five years. I am currently taking Gabapentin for the nerve pain and have tried a clean diet and natural treatments for EBV. What additional steps can I take to address the nerve pain and EBV, and is a nerve biopsy necessary if EMG and MRI show no damage?

I have hypertension, hyperlipidemia on statins, and arrhythmia. I am a 65-year-old female taking Perindopril/indapamide, Amlodipine, aspirin, Atorvastatin, CoQ10, and Panangin Forte (Potassium 316mg + Magnesium 280mg). I am curious about the benefits and side effects of StrictionBP (containing Ceylon cinnamon) and whether it could be a suitable supplement for me. Additionally, I have been experiencing anxiety, arrhythmia, trouble breathing, weakness, and fatigue, which I suspect might be related to the potassium supplement. What are your thoughts on these issues?
