We need a good geriatric doctor in the San Fernando Valley. My mom is 86 and her dementia started about a month ago and has progressed to the point of no speech and basically no understanding of any kind. Can you please help me find a good if not great geriatric doctor?

Can steroids or any non-surgical methods increase penis size, and what is the best antibiotic for prostatitis?

I am 51 and have been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia 10 years ago, and osteoarthritis in knees, feet, and tendonitis in elbows, feet, and bursitis in shoulders in the past year. My symptoms always occur bilaterally and steroid injections have been given in shoulders, knees, and elbows. The joints get mild edema but are not warm. The problems get pretty severe but go into a sort of remission until the next bilateral joint attack occurs. My brother has rheumatoid arthritis. Are these symptoms just coincidental or could my rheumatologist be wrong that it's just osteoarthritis and tendonitis? Should I get a second opinion from another rheumatologist? My bloodwork was negative for RA.

My husband has been bitten by an insect in his groin area. It is red and swollen. Should he see a doctor? It seems to be better a few days later (now).

Are there any anti-depressants safe to take during pregnancy for someone with bipolar disorder, given that the symptoms have worsened and anxiety has increased, potentially affecting the baby's health?

I have a constant 24/7 tight chest feeling since late March. I've had negative results on pulmonary function tests, EKG, and EGD. Doctors think it's acid reflux, but I don't have other reflux symptoms. I've had chest injuries from dirt bike accidents in the past. I occasionally get a dull ache or sharp pain in my sternum, sometimes related to breathing deeply or after physical activity. Can this be Costochondritis or GERD, and what tests or treatments should I consider?
