I have had back issues since childhood, which have worsened over the last five years. I am now 51 years old, diagnosed with lumbar radiculopathy, asthma, and have trouble urinating. I recently lost my job due to my back condition. Could these issues be connected, and what treatment options are available?

I'm 18 years old and have been experiencing anxiety, breathing issues, and digestive problems such as constipation and feeling full despite eating very little. I'm taking escitalopram for anxiety and simethicone for gas relief, but I'm concerned about side effects and whether these medications are causing my constipation. How can I address these issues and know if my symptoms are due to anxiety or something more serious like brain damage?

I had my period exactly one week ago and I woke up bleeding with a fever and headache. I only had the headache right before I woke up to the bleeding. The pain is in my whole head, the top and front. I have a history of irregular periods after a miscarriage in 2016, a small cyst, and fibroid. The bleeding is light with one clot, and I experienced pains in my lower back and legs, followed by a fever and headache. Last night, I had a sharp pain in my abdomen right after eating, which lasted for about a minute or two. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

I am due for a COVID-19 vaccine tonight but I'm 7 weeks post a triple bypass operation and am on antibiotics until Sunday. Is it safe?

I am concerned about a Grade 1 dysfunction listed in my recent echo report. Everything else was normal. Is this going to be harmful, and is there anything I should do about it?
