I have been experiencing palpitations for weeks, which started before I got pregnant and seemed to be associated with PMS symptoms. They continued during pregnancy and after giving birth, especially under stress. I have had blood work done, which showed borderline anemia, and I am now on ferrous sulfate. My thyroid levels are normal, and I am not pregnant. I am on birth control. What could be causing these palpitations, and what can I do to manage them?

I am a 35-year-old female with generally good health, but recently, I have been experiencing random muscle pains, mostly in my lower back, abdomen, and left side by my hip. I went to bed feeling fatigued and sore, and woke up with a high fever and chills. The pain worsens when I cough or sneeze. I am still in bed with a fever and chills, having to change my clothes throughout the night due to sweating. I am anemic and have a heart murmur, but neither has caused me any serious illness. What could be causing this and what tests should I undergo?

When sitting flat on the floor with legs straight out in front, my right foot naturally turns right to 45 degrees. Also, when walking, if I want it parallel to my left foot, I have to use my thigh muscle to straighten it. I have lived many years with no problem, but I feel I could have run better at college. I have a daughter who is now 13, and I noticed a similar configuration in her when she was 4/5. Are there any conditions or implications if this is a static condition regarding her physical activities or anything else of a serious nature going forward in her life?
