I have been experiencing sleep-onset insomnia due to myoclonus, transient muscle twitches and spasms during the day, and recent visual changes including nearsightedness that varies in severity. My neurologist ordered an EEG and an MRI. How long does it take to get EEG results, what can an EEG rule out if it comes back normal, and should I be concerned about these symptoms potentially indicating a brain tumor or other serious condition?

I'm looking for a doctor who can help manage my severe chronic pain from two different motor vehicle accidents. I'm 49 years old and have been experiencing significant pain and mobility issues since the first accident in 2002, which involved reattachment surgery for my upper left arm and surgeries for compound fractures in both knees. The second accident in 2005 resulted in a broken lower back, right hip, and both feet. I've had inadequate pain control and sleep deprivation for a long time and need a compassionate doctor who understands my situation. How can I find such a doctor and what treatments might be effective?

I am a 55-year-old female who fell 8 days ago on my right knee. I have bruising from above my knee to the bottom of my foot, and my leg's swelling is not going down. I have been icing it when I'm home and using Biofreeze 3 times a day. I noticed that the knee, where there is an open wound, and halfway down my shin is warm, and if I press on my leg, an indentation stays for a while. Should I be concerned? I haven't gone to a doctor since I lost my insurance and don't have the funds.

I have noticed over the last several years that my penis is curving downward when erect and appears to be shorter. In the last 3 months, I have started experiencing pain during erections and intercourse, especially when wearing a condom. The pain is mostly constant while erect, dull around the base of the head, and becomes sharper with a condom and after intercourse. I am 46 years old, circumcised since age 18 due to a tight foreskin, and have not noticed any palpable lumps. What could be causing this and what should I do?
