My blood test showed my ferritin level as 258. My doctor did not seem concerned as all other results were normal range.

My blood pressure is always high, today it is 157/100. I check it many times and it is always more than 150/90. I did all blood tests and they are normal, including cholesterol. The doctor prescribed me perindopril/indapam 4mg, but I only took it for 2 days and stopped. What are the causes of high blood pressure, and should I restart the medication?

My boyfriend and I have been putting in rock insulation into our house. I wasn't wearing a mask and now my throat is itching and dry, and I keep coughing. What can I do to stop that?

I'm recovering from a hangover and experiencing increasing nausea and dizziness, despite drinking a lot of water. Is this normal, and should I be concerned?

I am 68 years old and have arthritis. My circulation is poor, especially in my hands and legs, which get sore and sometimes collapse. I also experience swelling in my knees and ankles, especially during winter. I visit a chiropractor regularly, which helps temporarily. I drink fluids, including 1-2 cups of coffee daily and mostly good juices. What recommendations do you have for managing these symptoms?
