My husband had vertigo last night. He seems a bit better this morning. Should he see the doctor this week? He has had vertigo for brief periods several months ago. He is 91 years old and has a history of cancer, including a lung lobe removal, and receives Eligard injections every 3 months. He also has issues with oxygen levels when walking and recently refused oxygen equipment.

I am a 56-year-old woman with occasional atrial fibrillation. I take bisoprolol (half a tablet) daily. My atrial fibrillation started this evening at 5pm. I have since taken a total of 1.5 tablets and am still having an episode. Can I take additional bisoprolol, and what should I do about my current situation?

I have a silver dollar sized bruise on my torso that has been there unchanged for at least 10 days. The center of the discolored area is pale, and there is a slight lump under the pale area. I have no idea how the bruise got there, if it is indeed a bruise. Additionally, I had malignant melanoma 40+ years ago but have had no recurrence, and I notice that at 75 years old, I bruise easier than I did when I was younger.

I have had a white, thick discharge for about 3 years. I am negative for all STDs, yeast, group B, staph, gardneralla, mycobaterium, and have tested positive for e. faecalis. I took ampicillin, but the discharge returns after every treatment. I have no other symptoms, no smell, and no discomfort. I am not currently sexually active and have used multiple courses of intravaginal hydrocortisone, metronidazole, and clinda. What other testing should I undergo, and what hormone test should I do?

Does Mayo Clinic provide clinical trials for myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)? I am currently being treated with Dacogen and have a mutation on the 7th chromosome.
