Why did my heart rate go up to the 130s very briefly, and then return to normal, even though all my tests (EKG, blood tests, chest X-rays, calcium scan) have come out normal? Is there anything concerning about this, and could it be related to anxiety, stress, or sleep apnea?

I was hit in the upper stomach a few days ago and am experiencing soreness just below the chest area. I wanted to know if I could have internal bleeding by this point and what symptoms I should look out for.

I am taking Trazadone 100mg at night and need to take a travel tablet to prevent motion sickness on a bus trip. Can I safely take 1 Phenergan tablet the night before I go, given that I am 70 years old, take several other medications including Pizotifen, Ezetimibe, Omeprazole, Atorvastatin, and Apixaban, and am a type 1 diabetic on insulin?

On July 23, I made a deep wound on the side of my foot with a piece of glass. I went to the doctor, who cleaned the wound and gave me 5 stitches. It's been approximately 19 days. I was told that my tetanus vaccine is up to date, but I'm not sure when I was last vaccinated. I'm experiencing ear and throat pain, and I feel like I might have a fever. How likely is it that I will develop tetanus, and are these symptoms related to tetanus or something else?
