I had a brain MRI scan in 2018 that was normal, but now, after experiencing tingling and hot feelings in my legs, fatigue, and pain behind one eye, another MRI shows 'few scattered T2/Flair signal hyperintensities within the periventricular and subcortical white matter. Nonspecific. No ovoid lesions, no lesions parallel to ventricles. Overall no demyelination plaques. Clinics correlation and continued follow up is recommended.' What does this mean and do they typically show for no reason?

I have microscopic colitis and I’m trying to figure out if foamy bubbles in stool are mucus or fat. I have Hashimoto’s, elevated rheumatoid factor, and just started Lialda. I have tried eliminating gluten and dairy, and have used budesonide, Colestid, and Questran, but they haven't fully resolved my symptoms. What should I do next?

I am 22 years old and 27 weeks pregnant. I accidentally inhaled a small piece of chocolate while eating a Kit Kat bar, causing a persistent cough. Will me and my baby be okay? Should I take Tums, and is there a chance of aspiration or pneumonia?

I have recently started my fitness and health journey to lose weight and improve my overall health. I'm confused about how to calculate a calorie deficit that is effective but still healthy. How should I approach this?

I have been experiencing chest pressure, tightness, muscle spasms in my left chest, and a hard lump under my rib cage on the left side. My stomach bloats, and my left chest, shoulder, and back swell up. I have been to the emergency room multiple times, but they only perform basic tests and attribute my symptoms to anxiety or muscular skeletal issues. I have also experienced extreme discomfort, constipation, weight loss, heartburn, acid reflux, shortness of breath, and difficulty swallowing. What could be causing these symptoms, and what further tests or treatments should I consider?
