I had protected sex a week and a half ago, and I had protected sex in October. I had unprotected sex once on November 12, 2018, and I'm still paranoid about it. Every time I have sex, I get paranoid, and now my eyes are red. I woke up with red eyes and a headache. Do I need another STI test, and what could be causing my red eyes, headache, stomach cramps, and fatigue?

I have an inflamed tongue with difficulty swallowing and constant salivation. I took 50 mg of diphenhydramine HCL two hours ago but there has been no perceived change in my condition. I am a 70-year-old male with a history of diabetes and high blood pressure. This is not the first time I've experienced this issue, but it has not been a repeating problem. There is no personal or family history of anaphylaxis or acute allergic reactions. The swelling started without any specific trigger from exotic food or drugs, and there are no hives or body itching. I can breathe, but the swollen tongue is making it difficult to keep up with the saliva, and I cannot speak intelligibly. What should I do?

I have very irregular periods and have noticed bleeding twice in the same month. I used Provera, which started bleeding on March 9th, but it stopped on March 14th. Now, 9 days later, I'm bleeding again. I never get a period without taking Provera, but I stopped taking it and had bleeding twice in a month. I am 23 years old and have been using Provera for 3 years. I also have HSV1&2. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I had bowel cancer surgery six months ago and have had cancer four times. My stomach is swollen all the time, sometimes feels very hard, and I have pain in the upper right side. I'm lethargic and tired, despite exercising every day. Could this be related to liver issues or cancer?
