I've been experiencing strange urinary symptoms, including clear, slight, constant discharge despite negative STD tests and clear urinalysis. I've been using Flagyl since 5/10, but it doesn't seem to have helped much. The symptoms have been coming and going since 2/22, even disappearing in April but returning in early May. I was diagnosed with an E. faecalis infection in early March and went on penicillin twice. I had unprotected sex on 12/28 and 1/6. Could this be related to prostatitis or a UTI? What should I do next?

I take citalopram 40mg daily for anxiety and depression. My psychiatrist has started me on 7.5mg of buspirone 2x per day and I have been using it for about 2 weeks now. I often forget to take my night time dose. Recently, I have been noticing bouts of fatigue, a general confused feeling, memory loss issues, and trouble recalling. Are these side effects of the medication, and can I stop the medication cold turkey because it's making my anxiety worse and the memory issues are concerning me?

I stepped in a hole in my backyard and my ankle went sideways. There's been sharp pains going through my ankle up my leg, especially at night. I have to always have something under it to cushion it so I can sleep. Is there any pain or swelling in the ankle? Can you put weight on the leg? On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the most amount of pain, how much pain is there? Since when have you had the injury? The pain is the worst at night and right after I wake up in the morning. I broke my foot a little while back and now if I move my big toe, that part I broke hurts. What should I do?
