I am taking 200mg Gabapentin for Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS) after weaning off 0.125mg Mirapex. How long does it take for Gabapentin to start working for RLS, and is sudden onset of sharp joint pain throughout the body a side effect along with my hands constantly falling asleep?

I believe I have a hemorrhoid. I haven't slept in 2 nights due to the pain and discomfort. I've been using over-the-counter and home remedies. Should I go to the ER?

I have childhood trauma, including shocks of not trying to accept myself as a potential being, shocks related to my school diploma, and phobias of medical equipment like an MRI. I also experience severe anxiety, depression, and negative self-judgments such as feeling fat, a failure, and unable to cope. What can I do to address these issues and improve my mental health?

I noticed a rash accompanied by itchiness about a week ago. This morning I realized it’s peeling skin on my penis. What could this be and is it related to an STD or herpes?

I've been experiencing severe nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea since Sunday morning after a night of heavy drinking. I've tested negative for COVID and have had diarrhea since Monday. The nausea has worsened over time, and the thought of food makes me nauseous. I'm on birth control (Junel) and haven't taken anything for the nausea. I'm a 20-year-old female and have been on birth control for 5 years consecutively. What could be causing these symptoms and what can I do to alleviate them?
