I'm a 40-year-old female, non-smoker, non-drinker, and I take escitalopram for anxiety. I've had dizzy spells and fainting episodes after climbing stairs since last September. My echo was normal two years ago. I'm concerned about heart disease, heart failure, or pulmonary hypertension. Could my SSRI medication or COVID be causing these issues?

I've been experiencing recurring headaches that last for a short duration and leg pain, including a tender lump under the skin. I'm concerned about potential blood clots, cancer, or internal bleeding due to high blood pressure and preeclampsia. What could these symptoms indicate, and should I be worried about serious conditions like tumors, clots, or strokes?

I recently returned from a trip and experienced a pressure headache and dizziness, which has progressed to severe spinning sensations when standing. I have a history of a heart attack and am currently taking medications including aspirin, Norco, metoprolol, pravastatin, and atorvastatin. Should I go to urgent care or wait it out?

I have a left ear problem with fluid and irritation, possibly a sore at the outer ear. The irritation has been on and off for a few months and has been getting worse recently, affecting sleep. I am 64 years old and currently taking medications for blood pressure and aspirin, but nothing for my ear. What could be causing this and what should I do?
