My sister-in-law's husband went from being a fully functioning construction manager to someone who can't speak, understand, use the bathroom, or seem to know what is going on. He was admitted and then discharged from the hospital due to the overload of coronavirus cases. He is in Alaska, where coronavirus is widespread, but he has tested negative multiple times. He had been drinking the night before his condition worsened, and he is an occasional binge drinker. What could be causing his sudden decline in function, and what should be done to help him?

I have been taking Effexor XR since 2008 and have developed severe eye pain over the last 10 months. Could this be related to the medication? I also have a post-concussion from a car accident in January 2020 and take 100mg of quetiapine and trazadone for sleep.

I have been experiencing irritation on the head that is annoying most of the day for the past 4 weeks. There is no STD, tests are fine, no pain, no waking up at night, and no burning when urinating. The irritation is on and off. I have tried tacrolimus, clobetasol, and doxycycline, but neither my dermatologist, primary care physician, nor urologist has provided an answer. One idea is 'dysesthesia,' unexplained irritation and sensitivity. Is there anything else I can try?

I recently had sex with a partner who has herpes, using a condom. I don't have any symptoms yet, but I'm concerned about the possibility of contracting herpes. How likely is it that I could have contracted it, and when should I get tested?

Can hemoconcentration cause symptoms and continue to do so for a week after a blood transfusion, and what could be causing my extreme fatigue, heart palpitations, shortness of breath, and leg pains after an iron infusion?
