If I took a lorazepam 1mg and then a 10mg propranolol beta blocker, or vice versa, how long should I wait between doses, and are they safe to take together? Also, how long does it take for propranolol to slow the heart rate?

I've recently done three HIV tests, two at 21 days and one at 34 days, all negative. However, I have had swollen lymph nodes in my neck and groin, which are slowly decreasing. Today, I observed pain and swelling near my pelvis hip area, which I assume is another swollen lymph node. What could be the cause of this, and what can I do to stop it?

I had a 2-liter saline IV infusion test to check blood levels of aldosterone, followed by a prescription for 1 mg of decadron. During the test, I had to urinate every 20 minutes. My normal blood test showed 4x levels of aldosterone, and my blood pressure has been elevated despite taking multiple medications. My potassium levels are always low, so I take supplements. Since the test, I've been experiencing weak muscles, extremely dry skin, and feeling listless and sleepy. My blood sugar is high, and I have a benign tumor in my adrenal gland. What is going on, and do I need to see a doctor soon?

I have been taking Lorazepam for generalized anxiety and sleep. I took 1mg on Monday, 1mg on Tuesday, 1mg twice on Wednesday, 2mg on Thursday morning and night, 1mg on Friday, and none since then. Should I take anything tonight besides magnesium or melatonin?

I am 3 weeks off Zoloft 25mg. Was on it for 3 weeks and came off cold turkey. I experienced withdrawal symptoms such as insomnia, adrenaline dumps, dry heaves, tremors, night sweats, brain zaps, dizziness, and weakness. Most of these have subsided, but now I have a lot of gas and diarrhea every morning. Is this normal and why does coming off Zoloft do this?

I have a blood creatinine level of 1.19 and an eGFR of 52. Six weeks ago, these levels were 1.10 and 58, respectively. I have experienced swelling in my ankles and around my eyes, increased frequency of urination, and I have rheumatoid arthritis (RA). I was previously on Diclofenac, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, but stopped it six weeks ago. What could be causing these changes in my kidney function, and what should I do next?
