I found a lump in my breast in early December and have had inconclusive mammogram and ultrasound results. I've been referred for an MRI, but the current doctor suggests removing the lump for testing. What should I consider doing next?

I have been experiencing worsening constipation and symptoms like stomach swelling with gas, lump in the throat, cough, reflux, and passing hard pebbles with mucus. I am on metformin and have been using enemas and colonic hydrotherapy for IBS. I am worried about the seriousness of these symptoms and if they could indicate something sinister, such as cancer. I have recently had blood tests and am awaiting results, which I fear might show bad news. Additionally, I have concerns about high iron levels and skin spots that I worry could be melanoma. What should I do about these symptoms and concerns?

I am seriously concerned about my mother, who is an alcoholic and not coping well since my father's death. She has made threats to kill my boyfriend and others, although she has not met him and is not physically violent. Several family members, including myself, have stopped contact due to her verbal abuse. I have told her I can't see her until she seeks help, but she is stubborn and won't. Do I need to consider having her sectioned?
