I am experiencing abnormally slow heartbeats during the day, accompanied by a slight chest pain. I've been experiencing this for the past several weeks and have only used acetaminophen sporadically. I am a 30-year-old male with a history of exercise-induced asthma. The chest pain feels like a light burning sensation or pressure, and it occurs without nausea, sweating, or dizziness. It often passes with time but has worsened after exercise and with caffeine intake. My heart rate is usually in the mid 60s-low 70s range when comfortable. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should I do?

Upon examining the skin, the nurse sees a solid, elevated, hard lesion that is greater than 1 cm in diameter. What is the correct documentation for this lesion? nodule, papule, wheal, or bulla? Which one and why?

I have been experiencing severe headaches for the past 4 weeks, along with dizziness, neck pain, vision disturbances, nausea, and numbness in my face and arm. I have a history of fibromyalgia and chronic inflammation, and recent bloodwork showed elevated sedimentation numbers, anion gap, and EBV and Parvovirus levels. MRI and CT scans were clear. Could this be related to chronic EBV, and what treatment options are available?

I’ve had 3/10 cramping similar to menstrual cramps intermittently for 4 days now. I am 4 weeks 3 days pregnant. No spotting or bleeding. Is this cause for concern?

I need help getting off Xanax. I've been taking it for about 4 months, recently increased my dose from 1mg 3x daily to 4-5mg on some days. I'm experiencing sleep issues and feel lousy all the time. I'm a recovering heroin addict who has been clean for 11 years but took suboxone for 10 years. I want to wean off Xanax but don't know the best way to do it safely.

I took a supplement called modafinil and was told it was natural, but later found out it wasn't. I'm half Asian and have read about Steven Johnson syndrome being associated with this medicine. I'm not taking it anymore, and the dose I took was 200mg. Am I likely to get Steven Johnson syndrome from one single dose? I'm experiencing massive anxiety from this.
