I had a three-level cervical disc fusion (ACDF) in November 2018. Since then, I've experienced various health issues including thyroid problems, brain fog, fatigue, difficulty focusing, occasional loss of consciousness, heart palpitations, and shakiness. I've had numerous tests including a brain scan, blood tests, and a cardiologist's evaluation, all of which came back normal. I'm 33 years old, take levothyroxine, and have no chronic conditions. Prior to the surgery, I had muscle fatigue and loss of muscle mass in my left arm due to a pinched nerve. I also have some spinal cord damage and experience discomfort when looking down for extended periods. My hands and feet get cold, and I get headaches weekly. What could be causing these symptoms and what can I do to improve my condition?

Have sex without knowing you/your partners status? Are condoms 100% preventable? I’m waiting on my HIV RNA result. Also, I have HPV 16 and another unspecified strain. I have an abnormal pap and am scheduled for a colposcopy, they said it’s atypical. What does that mean?

I took Klonopin 0.5 mg 72 hours before a pre-employment screening. I don't take the drug regularly and very seldom. Will it show up on the drug test, and what is the cut-off level?

I fell over a year ago and have been experiencing pain ranging from level 2 to 8 daily, especially in my hip joints and legs. Recently, I noticed a protrusion from my vaginal area that started bleeding like a nose bleed over the last three days. I suspect it might be a hernia or prolapse. I am 73 years old, have a history of a fused lumbar, and have tried various treatments without success. What could this protrusion be, and what should I do about it?

I have a painless soft lump in the opening of my anus. How long have you had the lump? Is it hard or soft? Anything else in your medical history you think the doctor should know?
