My husband has had a stiff neck and extreme fatigue for a month. The past week he has had chills and what he describes as a 'sore stomach.' He has a poor appetite. He went to a doctor who said his blood work looked good and ordered a sleep study, which has not yet been evaluated. What additional tests should we request, and what could be causing these symptoms?

I have extreme pain in my lower back due to a car accident that caused fractured vertebrae. I was taking roxicodone 5mg, but it doesn't help. How can I get medications to help cope with the pain?

I recently had my fingertip cut off and the ER gave me Motrin 800mg and antibiotics, but the pain is still extremely bad. I don't have a family doctor to go to, no insurance, and the Motrin isn't helping. What can I do for the severe pain?

Is it common to use Sinemet to treat mood disorders and/or dementia, and can increasing its dosage to three times a day improve mental alertness without causing hallucinations or other side effects?

My 2-year-old has been complaining of back pain for over a week, which is worse at night and upon awakening. She has experienced weakness in her right leg and both legs becoming jelly-like, leading to near collapse. She has had a fever and double ear infections recently, but no fever now. What could be causing this, and what tests should be done?

I had a sore lymph node last week, and now I have a bad sinus infection. My tonsils look bad, with one being significantly larger than the other. Should I consider getting them removed, and could this be cancer? I'm really worried.
