How long does it take for iron levels to go up, and how much is needed to raise them? I have heavy periods and don't eat much meat. I am a 44-year-old healthy female with no prescriptions. I get heart palpitations when my iron drops, so I want to keep it up.

My husband has COVID-19 and is coughing up dark phlegm, feeling weak, and has a wet cough. He is 83 years old and has a history of high blood pressure, cholesterol, a cold, and a small heart blockage. What should we do for symptomatic relief and to prevent complications?

My son hit his upper arm (below shoulder) on a wall while playing basketball. He can do everything except throw a ball because it’s too painful. What could be wrong?

I ate old bread with some whitish stuff on it yesterday morning and experienced diarrhea after having milk tea today. I took loperamide and have had some rumbling sounds in my stomach. What should I do?

When I twist my body, I experience sharp pain in my left rib cage. I have been having gas and burping today, but it's not helping the pain. The pain only occurs when I twist or move in a certain way. I am a 24-year-old female with no other symptoms. The pain started last night. What could be causing this pain, and what should I do?

I think I have severe anxiety. Recently, I have been feeling down, out of breath at times, and the feeling like I can’t breathe, which makes me more nervous. I also get a feeling of something stuck in my throat. I’ve done all bloodwork and ENT checks, and I’m all healthy. My doctor prescribed me Clonazepam 1mg four times a day and 100mg of lamotrigine at night time four months ago. I am not a fan of pills and have not started the lamotrigine. Should I take it for my anxiety?
