I have edema in my lower legs and ankles. One of my knees feels tight and a bit sore, which I haven't experienced before. I am overweight, my father died of kidney disease, and I take a low dose of Lexapro. What could be causing the swelling, and what can I do about it?

I had unprotected sex with a 47-year-old woman while intoxicated 8 weeks ago. Since then, I have developed various symptoms including a rash on my thigh, a rash on my face, pain in the anal area, sensitive skin, joint pain, sore throat, and flu-like chest tightness. I had sex with my 29-week pregnant wife 7 days after the exposure. I am concerned about the possibility of HIV transmission to my child and want to know the likelihood of infection, the legal actions I can take if diagnosed, and whether I should see a specialist for further testing.

My son is 3 years old and is being referred for neurology and epilepsy clinic. He has been diagnosed with Hirschsprung's disease, a rare bowel condition, and has global developmental delay. His physiotherapy report shows 10-degree plantarflexion with 3 beats of clonus bilaterally, indicating a need for prolonged stretching in his ankles. He also has an eye squint, delayed speech, suspected absences possibly related to epilepsy, and dysphagia as a baby. Alongside Hirschsprung's disease, he has sphincteral achalasia. Does this suggest a neurological condition such as ataxia or cerebral palsy? What should we expect the tests to be?

Do you believe in bio energy to relieve symptoms of vertigo? My husband has been experiencing severe vertigo since May, is on medication (Serc, Aspirin, Diamox), and has been seeing a neurologist. He has had many bad episodes, sometimes needing to stay in bed for nearly a week. The neurologist suspects a vestibular disorder. We are worried and would like to know if bio energy could help and what other tests or treatments might be recommended.
