Is it okay to smoke one cigarette per week, and how does this compare to the health risks of light alcohol drinking? Additionally, what is the potential health impact of smoking around 1500 cigarettes over 33 years?

I completed a course of antibiotics (Keflex) for a strep infection, but there is still redness and pus on my tonsils. Should I get retested for strep? Do I need a longer course of antibiotics? I started the antibiotics on September 1st and completed 10 days of treatment. The symptoms improved initially but have reappeared. The redness is slightly darker than the mouth tissue, with no pain or itchiness. I had strep earlier this summer and took amoxicillin. No fever, no neck lumps, and no difficulty swallowing.

I drank 3 and a half liters of water in under an hour and now I feel dizzy. How long have you had dizziness? Is this stable or getting worse? Do you have pain or numbness anywhere in your body? What are all the medications you're currently using, either for dizziness or anything else? How old are you? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?

I accidentally took a double dose of my medication, which includes 150mg of venlafaxine, 100mg of ezetimibe, and 40mg of atorvastatin. My pharmacy is closed, and I'm unsure if this is a problem. What should I do?

Is it normal to have to pee 5 times in a 7-hour time frame, especially after drinking around 2 liters of water, and could this be a sign of diabetes?
