I have been taking my combination birth control pills incorrectly by starting with the inactive pills and working through the third week of active pills before noticing. My husband and I have had unprotected sex at least twice during this period. What should I do?

I received my urine culture back and it shows abnormal. WBC 10-20, Leukocyte Esterase 1+, and appearance cloudy. What does this mean? Is it something to worry about?

I just got up and felt dizzy, my vision went blurry, and then I fell over and my body was shaking. This all happened very quickly, couldn't have been more than a minute. I've had dizzy spells for over a year, which include blurry vision and occasional nausea. I've never fallen backwards and started shaking before. Do you think I may have had a seizure or a mini stroke?

I have had sudden watery diarrhea for two days, which seems to be getting worse. I am 5 weeks out from a partial knee replacement and dealing with the sudden loss of a dear friend. My knee is healing fine, but I also feel a rapid heartbeat intermittently. What could be causing my diarrhea and rapid heartbeat, and what should I do?

Can mucus or other objects get trapped in the tonsils, and if so, what is the easiest way to remove them? I have had a cold and it feels like postnasal drip in my tonsil, not the back of my throat. I've been clearing my throat and drinking lots of water, but it doesn't seem to help.

I have pain in the center of my pelvis, my right leg hurts and feels a little heavy and warm, and my back hurts. I also noticed a dark brown clot when I went to the bathroom. What could be causing these symptoms?
