I have been experiencing symptoms such as ear pain, headaches, tinnitus, dizziness, and weight loss due to stress. My MRI is clear, but I am still waiting for blood results. My ENT diagnosed me with allergic rhinosinusitis, and I have been using Avamys nasal spray. I am concerned about the inflammation or irritation seen in my EEG and the possibility of a circulation issue. My doctor here insists I take Stugeron. What sort of issue do I have, and what can I do to feel better?

I broke my distal fibula on January 12 and was given an air cast on January 22. I noticed my middle two toes often feel numb and tingly, and there's a blue streak of bruise on my foot. Should I get the numbness checked before my next cast clinic appointment on February 19, and is the blue streak of concern?

A 15-year-old female had a fever of 101.3°F for two days, which has now resolved, but she feels worse with sinus congestion, productive cough, and mild chest pain upon deep inspiration and coughing. She also experiences shortness of breath upon exertion. When should I take her to the doctor?

I have pain/discomfort in my left tricep and behind my left shoulder blade, which worsens when I lie down. I am a 67-year-old female with a history of mitral valve prolapse and degenerative disc disease in my neck and back. I am also preparing for a left hip replacement. Could these conditions be connected, and what might be causing the pain?

My wife had normal liver function blood tests in December. She was put on sulfasalazine for arthritis for two weeks and turned jaundiced. Her blood work today showed all liver functions at about 200 times normal. Should she wait for her general doctor appointment on Friday or go to the ER or find a hepatologist near Punta Gorda, Florida?
