Yesterday I woke up with soreness in my jaw, which turned out to be a large lump in my neck right under the chin, more to the left. I have a history of thyroid nodules and get sonograms every 6 months, but this lump is new and concerning. Can this be related to my thyroid history? What else could this be? I am very worried.

My 19-year-old daughter has been experiencing frequent vertigo. She is a full-time college student working 21 hours a week and recently discovered her room was infested with bedbugs. Her doctor prescribed Vyvanse 30 mg. I'm making her an appointment for blood work. What tests should I request?

Since November, I have been experiencing abdominal pains, loss of bowel control, and pain primarily on my lower right side. Now, I cannot control my bowel movements, only having small eliminations, and it feels like more wants to come out after evacuating. I am 90 years old, had my appendix removed at 16, and had diarrhea that was cured by acidophilus. I never needed laxatives, but my lower stomach seems large, and I have a lot of pain and lost my appetite. What could be the cause of these symptoms?

I had a very heavy period last month and almost fainted on the second day of it and had to spend the day in bed. I seem to feel more and more ill a week before my periods and they are heavier than before. Is this normal? I also have a pain in my right hand side low down above my pubic area, it could be my caesarian scar playing up again but with the other symptoms it has started to worry me.
