Hi, I need a medication prescription for my inhalers. I have used this medication before, with the last refill in January 2023. I am currently 55 years old and also using Avamys nasal spray and over-the-counter eye drops. I have been in isolation for 7 days due to RSV symptoms and post-exposure. I have asthma, which is controlled, but last night I experienced shortness of breath. Is albuterol one of my inhalers?

I have been experiencing strange and constantly changing bowel movements, which I know can be a red flag for cancer. I am very anxious and concerned about this. Could you please review my symptoms and provide your opinion on whether this could be cancer-related?

I have been experiencing difficulty sleeping for the past week, with a faster heart rate and an overactive mind. I've tried melatonin, CBD, and valerian root, but nothing seems to help. What could be causing this and what can I do to improve my sleep?

My daughter has been experiencing diarrhea and vomiting since August 24, with symptoms recurring despite initial improvement. She is 2 years old and has no appetite, but today she asked to eat and then vomited. She has been drinking water and Pedialyte freezies. Should I take her to the hospital or continue treating her at home?

I’ve been experiencing a stinging pain above my right elbow for the past few days, which has now spread, causing my entire arm to feel sore. There have been no recent activities that might have led to this discomfort. The pain started specifically above the elbow but has become more generalized over time. I am currently on amoxicillin and am wondering if my symptoms could be a side effect or if they’re unrelated. The persistence of this pain and its progression to a broader area has me concerned. Could this be related to nerve irritation, or a muscle strain? Or might it indicate something more serious that requires immediate attention? What steps should I take next? Thank you for your guidance.

I have additional information on my father's death. The cardiac monitor/EKG report shows SPO2 levels at 68% at 8:48pm, 82% at 8:59pm, 83% at 9:00pm, and 82% at 9:01pm. The readings of 82%, 83%, and 82% indicate low perfusion, but the 68% does not. Which SPO2 level should be considered? Additionally, if the 68% and my own measurement of 74% were accurate, could these low oxygen levels have caused my father to become unconscious and led to an arrhythmia and cardiac arrest? If the three low readings in the 80s were correct, could they also have caused unconsciousness, arrhythmia, and cardiac arrest? Finally, the paramedics did not provide supplemental oxygen, so his oxygen levels were low for about 20 minutes.
