I'm 18 years old and have been experiencing serious tiredness, mild stomach pains, nausea, dizziness, regular migraines, and rapid mood changes. I don't get periods anymore since I got the implant about a year ago. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

I have had hypertension for years, controlled with medication, but in the last few days, my blood pressure has dropped, and I am now consistently hypotensive. My blood pressure ranges from 118/66 to 105/60, and I have increased frequency of urination. My previous blood pressure was 145/88. I have lost weight but not recently and am on glucophage, eltroxin, and atenolol. My pulse rate has slowed down to 56 and 66 from 72, and I feel lightheaded at times. What could be the cause of my hypotension?

I had tested for cocaine yesterday and have not taken the drug, but I did take 4 500mg of amoxicillin on Sunday as premedicine before my dental appointment. Would this have caused the positive result?

I am experiencing severe itching that progresses to electrical-like shocks in my left arm, feeling like jellyfish stings, especially at night. I have been diagnosed with cellulitis/staph infection and treated with Bactrim and topical Clindamyacin, but there is no improvement. A previous diagnosis suggested nerve ending issues and prescribed a topical steroid cream and Atarax, which also did not work. I am 53 years old, have no swelling or tingling, just burning and itching sensations, scattered red bumps, redness, and no fever. What could be causing this and what further steps should I take?
