I have a hydrocephalus shunt in my head. It has been 7 months since I was diagnosed. Now I am experiencing dizzy spells, headaches, confusion, and memory problems again. I have not seen a doctor yet about these symptoms, which only returned two days ago.

Could my shunt have failed, or could these symptoms be related to the new medication?

I have experienced two muscular seizures and blackouts over the last three months. How long have you been concerned about the seizure? What are all your symptoms? Have your parents or grandparents had any neurological conditions? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?

During masturbation, my clitoris cannot stand direct stimulation, especially with a vibrator. Could that be a result of nerve pain?

I have been having nosebleeds for 5 days. I am 45 years old, female, and not on any medications. I have a history of pulmonary embolism and high blood pressure. What could be causing the nosebleeds and what steps should I take to manage them?

My 16-month-old daughter has had a constant, itchy, and swollen red rash all over her body for 5 days. She is behaving a bit naughtier than usual and sometimes cries. She is generally healthy and up to date with her vaccines. What could be causing the rash, and what should I do?
