My fiancé had surgery in 2009 following a head injury in 2008. Since then, he has experienced headaches, nosebleeds, and now itching and pain at the surgery site.

I have recently been diagnosed with high-risk HPV, and I am worried about my future, especially regarding marriage and potential health issues. How can I manage this condition, and is there a way to determine the specific HPV strain I have?

I have severe pain in my neck and hands, rated at a ten on the pain scale. I take Lyrica for Fibromyalgia but it doesn't seem to help this pain. I also punctured my index finger on a rusty saw on Christmas eve, cleaned it, and applied an antibiotic and a bandage. There are no signs of infection. Should I be worried about tetanus, and what should I do about the pain?

I tried a .25 Fentanyl patch for chronic pain relief and it did nothing. The doctor increased it to .50, but I experienced extreme nausea, dizziness, and weakness, which lasted all day. Is there an in-between dosage that would work, and would these symptoms lessen over time? Are there any other pain patches that might work for my complex regional pain syndrome?
