I have been experiencing off and on headaches in specific spots on my head, which are quite painful and last for a while. These headaches are not accompanied by confusion but do feel like occasional eyeball rolling tics. I am a 26-year-old male with a history of anxiety and stress, currently taking citalopram 40mg daily and montelukast. I occasionally get localized shooting pain in these spots, and sometimes experience slight bouts of dizziness with them. Light can make the pain slightly worse, and I recently had a severe cramping pain on my left side above my temple that increased with movement, coughing, or bending over. What could be causing these headaches?

I am looking for opinions about treatment for erectile dysfunction, specifically wave therapy. I see a lot of marketing concerning this and I'm unsure if I can trust the reviews. Do you have any opinions about wave therapy? Also, there are practitioners who charge $6,000 for wave therapy, and there are devices that can be purchased for self-use. Are either of these effective, or is this a scam?

Is it safe for me to sleep in my bed and be around my boyfriend again, who is at the end of day 8 of having COVID-19, given that I tested positive for IgM antibodies and negative for IgG antibodies, and have had no symptoms?

I have been on various SSRIs for almost 10 years to manage depression and anxiety. Despite trying multiple medications and dosages, I experience constant drowsiness and joint/muscle pain. I also have a CPAP machine for sleep and take other medications like Wellbutrin, Adderall, and testosterone therapy. I need help combating the drowsiness side effects of SSRIs.

My doctor is increasing my Lexapro (generic) dosage from 10mg to 20mg, and I still have half of the 10mg left. Should I take 2 pills together, and will there be a significant difference in how I feel with the 20mg dosage?
