I have been losing weight over the past few weeks, going from 250 lbs to 236 lbs. I had a thorough blood check and an ultrasound on my abdomen, both of which came back clear. Can I be confident that this weight loss is not due to cancer, particularly pancreatic cancer, and might it be related to anxiety instead?

For a colonoscopy, I have always taken Golytly the day before the procedure on an all liquid diet. This doctor has me taking it 2 days before and eating regular meals. Is this correct?

I took Niasafe 600 from Thorne Research in 1999, which led to a significant increase in ferritin and fasting glucose levels, resulting in diabetes. I've been diabetic ever since. Is there a treatment or cure? Additionally, I had a Cushing tumor on my pituitary gland removed in 2018, but I'm still on hydrocortisone therapy. What should I do?

I have had a dry cough for 6 weeks. I've been to my allergist and the ER, and have been given medications from both visits, but they don't seem to be working. No other symptoms besides the dry cough. My nephew, who was still coughing from a cold, visited a few weeks ago. The ER did a chest X-ray which showed clear lungs, and my allergist diagnosed me with allergy-induced asthma after a pulmonary function test. What additional treatment options should I consider for my persistent cough?
