I was born with a Bifascicular block and have an AHSD coronary artery calcium score in the 66th percentile. Recent EKG and echo cardiogram results were normal. However, I recently felt lightheaded and slightly dizzy after physical exertion twice. Paramedics checked my EKG, blood oxygen, and pressure, which were all normal. A halter monitor test three months ago also showed normal results. Should I stop exercising and see my cardiologist this Monday? I am a 78-year-old male with normal blood test results.

I have yellow bruises on the lower sides of my stomach that have been there for a few days. They are starting to get hard and a little painful. Should I go to the hospital? I had a vasa previa and a c-section at 34 weeks last August. I am currently taking prenatal vitamins and still nursing.

I never had allergies when I grew up in Los Angeles, but ever since living in Atlanta for 2 years, I have experienced allergies. Now back in Las Vegas, I have daily headaches, nasal drip, congestion, and cough. I've taken Zyrtec, Allegra, and Sudafed. Why have I suddenly developed allergies, and does this happen as you get older?

I have been diagnosed with IBS D for many years and recently with C. diff. I have lost control over my bowels, leading to uncontrollable diarrhea and the need to wear adult briefs. I also have an orange-sized mass on my abdomen that has become painful. I've lost over 30lbs since the C. diff diagnosis. What should I do, and am I at risk of wasting away?

I am a 19-year-old female with no health insurance. For 6 days, I have had diarrhea, bad stomach cramps, nausea, and watery green stools. I've been to the ER 3 times and been prescribed Immodium and probiotics, but I'm not getting better and feel tired and weak. What OTC meds can help, and what else should I do?

I have been noticing yellow oval objects in my soft stools about 4-5 times over the last 6 months. They are the size of quail eggs and do not move. I have no other symptoms and have not consulted a doctor. I take daily medications for chronic migraine and multivitamins. What could this be and should I be concerned?
