I am a 47-year-old male with Lynch Syndrome MSH II gene mutation. I have a history of bladder cancer (low grade) in 2008, a prostate tumor with extra capsular extension, and a recent recurrent bladder tumor requiring TURB. The biopsy results were inconclusive due to cauterization, but one part showed cystitis cystica, which could be pre-cancerous. I'm concerned about the untested 80% of tissue and the prostate mass. What should I do next, and is cystitis cystica always pre-cancerous?

I had a cold or the flu since Friday, and on Monday, I started experiencing sharp chest pains. The pain went away after applying heat to my sternum, but I'm concerned about potential internal injury if I cough too hard. I'm 30 years old, former athletic, and most of the pain is gone, but I still feel like I have 'junk' in my chest from the cold. What could be causing the chest pain, and is there any danger or should I just treat it as sore muscles?

I have pain at the base of both thumbs due to bone-on-bone arthritis. I was prescribed Mobic, which didn't help. Someone suggested trying Voltaren Gel and magnetic therapy. What do you think about these options?

I had the injection Deprova and gained 36 pounds. I have fats around my liver, and everyone asks if I am pregnant. I am unhappy and considering leaving work. What should I do?
