I have Stage IV metastatic colon cancer which spread to the liver and lymph nodes and also have diverticulosis. Surgeries successfully removed the cancer from the colon, lymph nodes, and 2 tumors on the liver. I continue on chemotherapy, PET/CT scans, and have an ileostomy bag. I am feeling better each day. Although I am not happy with the bag, I have concerns about having the ileostomy reversed (incontinence, pain, bleeding, etc.). Since I am doing so well, should I stick with the bag and forget about the reversal?

When I woke up this morning and tried to nap, I experienced a brief period of dizziness and difficulty walking straight, as if I had been drinking (though I haven't had alcohol in weeks). I was drifting sideways and found it hard to walk straight. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

I had an epidural on May 8th. The needle went too deep and pinched my nerve. I have been miserable for two months. Will this go away or is it permanent? I have three herniated discs and have had back pain, but never this feeling radiating down my butt and legs. Is this from the needle?

I am a 50-year-old male with no history of diabetes. In a routine lab test, my glucose level was 67 and fructosamine was 1.59 (within the expected range of 1.20-1.79 mmol/L). Should I be concerned about low blood sugar and get an A1C test done to reconfirm, or am I good?

I asked the dentist to treat necrosis in my dorsi, which caught my attention that I entered immediately after the person who came before me. I did not see the doctor or help him. I changed some of the tools, but I did not care about the subject. I mean HIV. I also have this question and another question is whether fear and nervousness affect the heart and thanks.
