asked

I am experiencing severe eye swelling, affecting both upper and lower eyelids, with very few other symptoms. I have been allergy tested and am on sublingual drops. I am allergic to tree nuts, soy, corn, environmental factors, and mildly allergic to dogs. I have also been diagnosed with thyroiditis, although not currently active. The swelling has persisted for almost two weeks and has never gone down, almost to the point of being swollen shut. Blood tests revealed low iron and calcium, with normal thyroid functions. My eyes are fine according to an eye doctor. What should I do next?

I used an albuterol inhaler which helped with breathing but still feel light-headed and wheezy. Should I seek urgent medical attention tonight/tomorrow, or should I give the penicillin more time to work?

I have blood-blue-black color big stains on my legs upper part. I recently knew that I suffer from polyarthritis and have been taking Arcoxia, Zyprexa 10mg, and Lithium for the past 14 years. I recently had diabetes and take Galvus Met for it. I'm starting to feel my legs heavy. Is it dangerous? Could it be symptoms of OD (overdose)? Could it be abuse-related? Is this lethal? If narcotics are also involved, what should I do? Is it lethal? Any kind of treatment you might suggest before seeing the physician in 24h from now?
