I have been experiencing severe mental impairment, including memory and thinking difficulties, since being drugged, beaten, and robbed about 10 years ago. I often feel like I'm going to pass out when required to concentrate moderately, and even simple thoughts are hard to complete. I've seen several neurologists who couldn't find any structural issues with my brain. Could my brain's autoregulation be compromised, leading to inadequate oxygen supply, and is there any medication that can keep the brain's arterioles dilated?

My SGOT is 32, SGPT is 43 (slightly high), and ALK PHOSPHATASE is 68. Is this okay? I have no symptoms and slightly high cholesterol at 243, but HDL and LDL are normal. What should I know about these results?

Is it safe to take Ambien and Cipro together, and what should I do about my ongoing diarrhea and blood in stool?

When I went to A&E last Saturday, the doctor gave me norethisterone. I told him I can't take hormonal birth control due to my migraines with aura, which increases stroke risk. He said it's progesterone-only so not a problem. I didn't end up taking it as my bleeding stopped. My acupuncturist advised I take it now, but I just read the package insert and it says NOT to take it if you have migraine with aura. Which is correct? I also have the option to take tranexamic acid but I had hoped to go down the progesterone route if that is safe. Additionally, I had a scan that showed an area in the fundal part of the endometrium with a lot of blood flow, and I'm worried this could mean cancer. The ovaries looked okay, but there was free fluid in the pouch of Douglas. My endometrial thickness was 15.47mm. I am terrified and need reassurance that this is not cancer.

My autistic son is regressing. He used to be very independent but now needs help with many skills, such as dressing. He holds his shorts and lifts his leg but doesn't put them on. He used to automatically buckle his seat belt and wash his hands, but now requires reminders. He had normal MRI and EEG results. What could be causing this regression and what further tests should be considered?

I am experiencing lower right abdominal pain and irregular menstrual cycles. I have been to the doctor multiple times, had ultrasounds, blood work, and all tests came back normal. My ovaries are fine, and I am trying to get pregnant. What could be causing the pain and irregular cycles?
