I break out in hives at night, usually between 2-4am, mainly on extremities/hands, sometimes on the torso. This wakes me up and causes intense itching. I take Benedryl to stop the itching. I am 58 years old and this has been happening for 2-3 months. There have been no changes in detergents or cosmetics. The hives only occur at night, specifically between 2-4 am, and I have a rash that appears in different places each night. I also notice deep scratches on my skin from scratching in my sleep. What could be causing this and what can I do to prevent it?

I have been experiencing continuous head spinning for two months, diagnosed with left ear vestibular dysfunction or Meniere's disease. I have tried various medications including water pills, meclizine, and betaserc 16 mg twice a day, but they have not improved my condition. I am also taking blood pressure medicine and anxiety medication. My MRI, blood tests, and heart check-up are all clear. I feel unbalance and my head and eyes spin constantly. What could be causing this, and what is the best treatment to relieve my symptoms?

I had a mild fever for approximately 45 days, which was diagnosed as a urine infection. I was medicated for almost 10 days and felt relief, but after stopping the medication for 7-8 days, the fever returned. I was given the same medication again, and urine culture tests were done. Now, I am feeling feverish and have mild issues while urinating. What should I do?
