I was taking 4 mg Valium per day (2 mg in the morning and 2 mg in the evening) for travel, and recently tried to wean off by cutting out the evening dose. Now I'm experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms like stomach issues, increased anxiety, hot flashes, and restless legs. How should I manage these symptoms and safely taper off the Valium?

I am a 42-year-old male with prehypertension, on Benicar 25mg. Seven to eight months ago, I received a hand job from a dancer at a strip club, with no other sexual contact. Since then, I have experienced lower back pain, side pain, and random, brief tingling sensations on my penis. I also noticed a pimple on my butt. I am worried about having an STD, specifically HIV or herpes, and whether these symptoms could indicate something more serious like cancer or multiple sclerosis. Could I have contracted an STD from the hand job, and should I be concerned about other health issues?
