I’m a late twenties female with well-controlled diabetes (average A1C of 6.1). About a month ago, I developed sixth nerve palsy, causing double vision. My MRI revealed two lesions, but no stroke-like evidence or tumors. The CT scan was clear. I've been told it could be multiple sclerosis (MS) due to my age and the lesions, but my GP was unsure. I have had tingling in my hands and feet over the past year, and the night before the nerve palsy, I experienced severe pins and needles in my hand. Could these symptoms be related?

I had lunch with my brother last Friday, sitting outside at a picnic table about 4 feet apart. He may have been exposed to a COVID-positive person. Am I considered a close contact and at high risk for exposure?

I have OCD and schizophrenia. Recently, I experienced a déjà vu at a place where I had a memory of accidentally flirting with a 17-year-old. This has led to obsessive thoughts, anxiety, depression, and feelings of being a bad person. I'm unsure if this is due to my OCD or cognitive impairment. What should I do?

We have a family member returning from a round trip to Guatemala. Upon her return, she plans to take a COVID-19 test. If the test is negative, is it safe to socialize with her? Additionally, should the test be taken immediately upon return or after a quarantine period?

My fiancé, with whom I live, got tested for COVID yesterday and was showing symptoms like aches and nausea. My work requires a doctor's advice before taking any action. I've been experiencing muscle aches and sinus-like symptoms. What should I do?

Is HIV or AIDS ever spread by saliva, and do you still develop HIV antibodies to be picked up by a test in the case of AIDS?
