I'm 29 years old, female, healthy weight, no medical conditions that I'm aware of, and definitely not pregnant. Twice now, I have had sudden onsets of dizziness and nausea on warm, sunny days after consuming a very small amount of alcohol. The first time, I was standing and experienced vision narrowing and hearing impairment, followed by a cold sweat and tingling skin. The second time, it happened while sitting, without the tunnel effect but with similar symptoms. What happened, and should I be concerned?

I had a complete knee replacement in May 2011, and since then, I have been experiencing severe pain on my right side, from my hip down to my calf. The pain and cramps last for 2-4 hours after lying down for 3-4 hours. I have been told that everything is in alignment, and I have an idiopathic scoliosis which has not caused problems. I am unwilling to undergo surgery again. What can be done for the relief of this pain?

I’m having hip replacement surgery on June 4th and plan to fly to Kenya on July 6th, with a 16-hour flight leg. My daughter, a nurse, advises against such a long flight so soon after surgery. What are your thoughts?

For the past few weeks, I've been experiencing a series of fevers, migraines, heartburn, restlessness, and loss of appetite. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?
