I am scheduled for a thyroid nodule scan uptake due to calcification and moderate blood flow. I have had the nodules for a while, and the last biopsy was benign. I currently have an upper respiratory infection and possibly a sinus infection. Will these infections affect the scan results, and should I reschedule the test?

I got bitten by a big dog while visiting Vancouver. The bite didn't bleed, but I have bruises and ache-stabbing pain in my leg. I'm 43 years old and currently using Avdil. Do I need any injections or vaccines for this?

My brother, age 62, has stage 4 pancreatic cancer that has spread to his lung and bone. He recently completed 6 rounds of chemo, and is now on his second round. During his off week from chemo, he is experiencing intense coldness and shaking, which he cannot control. Is it safe to assume this is a chemo side effect, or could it be a sign of something more serious?

My 5-year-old daughter has had a persistent cough for 5 weeks, which has worsened. It started with cold symptoms and now includes a barking, wet cough with chest congestion. She has a build-up of fluid in her nasal area, and her cough is accompanied by bronchial irritation. No medicine seems to help, and she has been drinking plenty of fluids. What could be causing this and what can be done to help her?
