I’m taking Flagyl for a parasitic infection and experiencing severe diarrhea. I’m only drinking bone broth. Does the diarrhea stop after finishing the Flagyl dose? Today is my last day. My GI discomfort worsened after starting Flagyl. I also have a lingering cold and mild GI issues on my left side. Could my GI problems be related to not completing the Invermectin dosage? Could my Blastocystis hominis infection be from that as well? When can I start taking prebiotics or probiotics?

My son suffers from extreme dizziness and brain fog. He has had these symptoms for about three years, with a recent worsening. He has no pain or numbness, is 56 years old, and is not on any medication. He has a history of a mild concussion and whiplash three years ago, and severe depression. What could be causing this and how could he be helped?

I have always suffered from excess gas and PVCs (premature ventricular contractions). I have undergone extensive cardiac testing with no abnormalities found. I notice that PVC flares often coincide with eating, and I also have a history of GERD. What could be the connection between these symptoms and what can be done to alleviate them?

I missed my period this month. My last period date was 13th October. I did a pregnancy test and it came positive. Currently, I am staying in the US and will be moving back to India in January. For now, could you please guide me on what medicines I should take and what care I have to take during the first trimester?

My husband is having dreams that he thinks are real, affecting our life. He believes men at work are teaming up to beat him and that all his friends want me (his wife). He recently confessed to cheating on me, and since then, his behavior has become more erratic. He doesn't sleep much and has plenty of energy. He also believes he was fired from work, which isn't true. What is wrong with him, and what can be done to help him, especially since he doesn't have insurance?

Hey Doctor, my chest feels funny. I think it’s anxious, but I want to double-check. Can you help me understand what might be causing this feeling?
