I have been experiencing severe gas and diarrhea for 12 hours, despite taking Lomotil. I also had a migraine yesterday and visited the ER, where I was given medication. My primary care doctor advised me to go to urgent care, where I received fluids. The urgent care doctor suggested Lomotil would stop the diarrhea, but it hasn't.

I have been trying to conceive, and my ovulation test strips show elevated Luteinizing hormone. I feel tired, have headaches, and have had swelling, slight burning, and tingling in my hands and occasionally my feet for the last two weeks. I tested for pregnancy, but all tests were negative. I am currently without medical insurance and cannot see a specialist. I am concerned about Cushing's syndrome. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should I do?

I tend to get nauseated and a little dizzy several times a day. I also run a fever occasionally, but not all the time. I don't stay nauseated for long, just short periods. I am on blood pressure and cholesterol medications. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

I think my Breztri Aerosphere inhaler may have malfunctioned. It felt as if the inhaler sprayed liquid into my airway as opposed to the puff like normal. Should I be concerned about getting too much of the 3 medications?
