I’ve suspected I have a thyroid issue for a couple of years now. I was borderline hypothyroid 2 years ago and weighed 165lbs. Over the last 2 years, my sleep has deteriorated, my anxiety is severe, and I have lost 45 pounds without significant effort. My recent bloodwork showed hyperthyroid levels for TSH and extremely high thyroglobulin levels. My old doctor wanted to refer me to an endocrinologist, but my new doctor says there's nothing to worry about, and my ultrasound was negative. Given my history of celiac disease and susceptibility to autoimmune disorders, I'm concerned about my thyroid health and would like a second opinion.

I was talking to someone and a little bit of their spit landed on my lip. Can I catch any STDs from that, and if I want to get tested, when should I go?

I have been experiencing constant chest pain for the past 3 weeks, which worsens when bending over or getting up. The pain is ache-like, located in the center of my chest, and feels like squeezing discomfort with occasional palpitations. I am a 33-year-old female and have not had any shortness of breath or fevers. Should I go to the ER, or is it safe to wait until my scheduled appointment with my primary care physician on Monday?

I have parasites and I'm not sure what kind of larvae are burrowing out of my extremities. They start off like a small barb and then get bigger, making it difficult to remove. I have tried various home remedies like wormwood, candisis, and papaya enzyme, but I need a proper diagnosis and treatment. How can I get a definitive diagnosis for these parasites?

Hey doc, I don’t know what this is but it’s hurting so bad on my skin.

How to remove lead from your blood if you have been concerned about it for a year, are 59 years old, not using any medications, and work at a shooting range?
