I am experiencing morning stomach upset and lower back pain, which feels like it's in my spine. I had a bad episode of diarrhea a week ago after working out, and now I wake up with an upset stomach and back pain. My ex-husband, a gastroenterologist, suggested I might have IBS triggered by eating oatmeal. I am flying on Wednesday and want to know if I should be concerned about my symptoms.

I am experiencing diarrhea for a few days, now with mucus in my stool, dry mouth, bad taste in my mouth, and some stomach cramps that are relieved by going to the bathroom. I have a history of liver issues due to a medication reaction and had a panic attack this week. I stopped drinking soda completely, which I used to drink 4-5 cans a day. Should I see a doctor sooner than my scheduled appointment next Friday?

I had a concussion 3 weeks ago and was feeling great, but now I feel like crap with slight nausea and light-headedness. Did I re-concuss myself by doing light activities like weight lifting and riding horses? What does this mean, and what should I expect?

I think I tore something in my right shoulder. The pain radiates up my neck, back, chest, and down my arm. I can't raise my arm or carry anything. The pain started one month ago and is constant. If I move my arm, it's sharp pain, and the constant pain is achy. I have arthritis in my shoulders and injured it while working on my car. What could be the issue and what can I do for it?

My aunt had an MRI with contrast that showed a non-mass-like enhancement in her breast, described as a heterogeneous, asymmetric area of 30/20 mm, located 80 mm from the nipple and 45 mm from the pectoral muscle, extending from the subcutaneous layer to the glandular tissue. The report mentions no lymphadenopathy and gives a BIRADS 5 rating. She was seen a year after treatment for colorectal cancer. What does this mean for her diagnosis and potential treatment options, including the possibility of a mastectomy, chemotherapy, and radiation?

I’ve been feeling a random dull ache in my chest that comes and goes, sometimes in my back and arm. My pulse raises from 65 bpm to almost 100 when I stand up, and it stays higher than my resting heart rate after exercise. Is this anything to be concerned about?
