I have been sick with food poisoning and havenāt been able to eat, and I haven't been able to take my Effexor and Lamictal for two days. Today, I am able to eat just a little and am wondering if I will be okay to take my meds if my stomach has just a very small amount of food in it.

I have a contracture. Will it spread to my right hand? I haven't seen a doctor about this. Does stem cell work?

I recently came into contact with rusted metal pieces and accidentally rubbed my hand with rust deposits over my nose. Since then, I have been experiencing irritation in my throat, watery mucus, and a feeling of lightheadedness, which I suspect might be a fever. I took Paracetamol for it, but no other symptoms or past illnesses. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

I have had a cyst behind my right ear lobe since childhood. I recently ran out of Zoloft, which I was taking for depression, and am now experiencing an excruciating headache that radiates from one inch left of the cyst. Is this a medical emergency, or can I wait until tomorrow to talk to my primary care physician?
