My daughter has had strep throat, tonsillitis, and a peritonsillar abscess drained. She is a college student 5 hours from home and has been on multiple rounds of antibiotics. We are trying to decide if she should recover at home or stay at college. What are the signs to watch for and is there a risk of sepsis or other serious complications?

My child has been sick with strep twice in the last month and recently RSV, in which she is taking medication. Do you think it's safe for her to stay with her grandmother in Tennessee this time of year, coming from South Georgia? She has a history of complications with flu, COVID-19 while pregnant, and strep four times in the last three months. She is currently experiencing a runny nose, coughing, and was recently diagnosed with RSV a week ago. My concern is the change in weather from South Georgia to Tennessee and her tendency to remove her socks and hats, making it difficult to keep her warm.

I have a constant pain in the left side of my abdomen, near the navel and down to my leg and foot, which has been present for two months. The pain is sharp and sometimes achy. I am 25 years old and female, using homeopathic Scatia. I have no loss of consciousness, no breathlessness, no chest pain radiating to the left hand or jaw, no palpitations, excessive sweating, or swelling of the feet. My urine output is normal, and I do not feel the pain is associated with stress or anxiety. I have had no recent changes in periods or flow, but I do have lower abdominal and left lower quadrant pain, which is sharp. I have no fever, nausea, vomiting, or change in bowel habits. I sometimes feel a mass or tenderness when pressing on the area, and I sometimes have pain while urinating. My father has a history of kidney stones. I have had an ultrasound, which showed nothing.

I am a 29-year-old female with a history of PTSD, depression, anxiety, panic disorder, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, and PCOS. I am currently taking antidepressants, mood stabilizers, birth control, and Ambien as needed for insomnia. I am experiencing symptoms such as fatigue, widespread body pain in joints and muscles, widespread inflammation and swelling, low-grade fevers, skin rashes that feel like hives, headache, nausea, brain fog, and allergy symptoms without positive allergy tests. My ANA test is positive, but ENA is negative, and complement levels are not low. What could be causing these symptoms, and what further tests should I consider?
