I'm a 30-year-old male with what appears to be stretch marks on my body, but I believe it's something more serious affecting my skin. I also have persistent coughing and mucus production. I've been tested for STDs three months ago and all results were negative. I've had two sexual partners in the last three months and my girlfriend also has similar marks and tested negative for STDs. What could be causing these symptoms and what additional tests should I consider?

Will sex that I had on October 30th, November 1st, and November 5th get me pregnant? My last period was October 21st - October 25th, and my cycle length is usually 28-30 days long. When are my fertile days and day of ovulation?

How safe is it to consume 1-2 glasses of red wine (4-6 ounce glasses) after having surgery to remove a golf ball sized brain tumor, given that I will start follow-up chemotherapy/radiation therapy in 2-4 weeks?

I am a 29-year-old male with a stressful lifestyle, experiencing heart palpitations 1-3 times per day that last for 1-2 seconds, and shortness of breath. I also had an incident where I woke up feeling like my heart had stopped for a few seconds, followed by difficulty breathing. I had normal heart studies 5 months ago, including an echo, stress test, and chest x-ray. What could be causing these symptoms?

I have a fever that comes and goes, sore throat, ear pressure and pain, general malaise, and neck pain. I was diagnosed with sinusitis and ear infections. I'm concerned about meningitis due to the neck pain, but it feels muscular. My heart rate and blood pressure are also high. What should I do?

My throat has felt tight for two days, with pain to the touch yesterday but just dryness today. My stomach burns, my chest tickles, and I feel some relief when I burp. The pain in my throat comes and goes, and it feels tight and swollen, possibly achey. I have had laryngospasms before, and yesterday it felt like I was 'swallowing my throat' when I swallowed.
