I started feeling bad on Monday, and although I felt a little better, my symptoms worsened, and I tested positive for COVID on Thursday. I have a new cough and intermittent fevers. I'm located in Kansas City and am unsure about the COVID-19 prevalence in my area. I'm currently using cold and flu medications, Tylenol, Motrin, and Zofran. I'm 52 years old. I'm concerned that I'm not getting better since getting diagnosed with COVID. Is this normal, and how long should these symptoms last?

Yes, it is normal for COVID-19 symptoms to fluctuate and sometimes worsen after initial improvement....

I'm a 35-year-old female experiencing nausea and stomach cramps since yesterday. I've been super stressed and not eating much, and I also deal with GERD. Could this nausea be stress-related, and am I not vomiting?

I think I might be infertile. I'm a 21-year-old female who has been trying to conceive for about a year without success. I'm not taking any medications, and I have a history of a 2cm cyst on one of my ovaries. My height is 4 feet 10 inches, and I weigh about 160 pounds. My period is regular, and I use the Flo app to track it. What could be causing my infertility, and what steps should I take to address it?

He has no fever and ate Taco Bell and Arby's French fries recently. He is a vegetarian, 34 years old, and has no current medications. He also has a hemorrhoid that sometimes bothers him. What could be causing these symptoms and what should be done?
