I do not have regular bowel movements. It can be anywhere from once a week or longer, followed by a day or two of straight diarrhea. I have tried over-the-counter daily laxatives like Metamucil and Restoralax, but they don't make a difference. What can I do?

I have consistently low levels of immature granulocytes, with a recent increase to 1.0. I also have swollen lymph nodes in my groin for about two months. What could these symptoms indicate, and what should I do next?

I have a pretty bad shoulder injury that was shown on an MRI about 2 years ago. Recently, I stopped taking NSAIDs and my pain has increased, particularly in my arm and under my armpit. Could this specific injury on the MRI cause pain to radiate to below my armpit, and is it normal for these injuries to cause pain in the axilla area? Additionally, could physical therapy for the shoulder aggravate the pain under the axilla, and can this pain last for a long time? Also, do these injuries on the report sound serious, and can shoulder pain cause shoulder blade pain as well?

I lost my smell 100% and a lot of my taste after COVID, which was roughly 2 years ago. Suddenly, I can sort of smell, but everything (well most things) smell and taste like garbage now, to the point a lot of things make me almost throw up. There’s a constant taste in my mouth too. What gives? Advice, ideas, and explanations wanted/appreciated/needed. (I am hearing about the ganglion block shot in the neck to “reset” the olfactory…)

Can Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) start with low lumbar atrophy, fasciculations, pelvic spasticity, or pelvic weakness, and can diffuse disc bulging at L4-L5 cause lumbar atrophy?
