Hello, I am a 25 year old female, recently married. I am diagnosed with (heterozygous) Factor V Liden. My husband and I are trying to plan on when we want to start trying for kids. We want to wait, but I am reading up on how this can affect pregnancies and cause stillbirths and am feeling very nervous. I have never had any complications from Factor V, I only know that I have it because my mom does as well, and wanted me to get tested too. Will waiting put our possible babies more at risk?
I am 38 and just found out I am pregnant with my 4th child. I am scheduled to go on a short mission trip to help build a house in Juarez, Mexico, in 2 weeks, when I will be 6 weeks pregnant. I am in very good health and never had any complications with other pregnancies, but I realize that my age alone puts me at higher risk. Should I cancel my trip?

Hi, I have been extremely fatigued with headaches and severe nausea coming in waves (no pattern to it, but I do have it almost every night). I have no real appetite, but am eating, although not a great diet. I also have shoulder tip pain in my left shoulder and left side flank pain (kidney has been checked with bloods and an ultrasound-all okay) This has been occurring since August, when I was hospitalised for severe hydration and what doctors diagnosed as possible food poisoning. I was extremely unwell for three weeks with nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea. Also, my period is usually around the 20th of each month and lasts for 4-5 days. This month it arrived on the 12th and lasts for 9-10 days and was extremely heavy. So heavy I could not even wear a tampon. Just after advice from another source.
Thank you.
Hello,
I am a 36 year old woman who has history of left ovarian vein thrombosis extending into left renal vein. Recently, underwent vascular tests which revealed gonadal vein insufficiency, and had a embolization of the left renal vein. Is this the proper procedure for this injury?
Would this cause me to have chest pain, abnormal Ecg, and swelling?
Please help me, it seems something is wrong since I had this procedure.
I’m 20 yr old male and suffer with panic and anxiety disorder.. i’ve been experience chest pains for 4 years, for the last week it has been worse I don’t know why, it’s making me have major panic attacks. My jaw gets pain, I get sharp shooting in my left shoulder, I go numb in the arm.. everything that happens to me is all heart attack symptoms, iv had my lungs, and heart checked in the last year, it’s all perfect. The pain has been really scaring me. It could just be very server anxiety, but does that mean the pain has to be so hectic and all the symptoms have to be like heart attacks? It’s driving me crazy…

Hello, I am a 20 year old female, and I have been experiencing joint pain, lightheaded feeling headaches that are better when lying down, neck pain, teeth grinding, severe social anxiety, and recently pains in my middle back on either side. Googling I found this may be an indication of adrenal insufficiency or an autoimmune condition and I was wondering if you had any other ideas I could bring to my doctor when I see her. I have had these symptoms for quite a while, but they seem to be getting worse, Thank You
I’m 35 year old female diagnosed epileptic and asthmatic , I take 400mg of lamictal daily. For a long time now possibly years I’ve been troubled with extreme fatigue , it’s got so bad now that I’m nearly in tears going into work most days , I even feel it after a nights sleep ! I feel like I’m at breaking point now ! My seizures are most vulnerable when I’m exhausted but thankfully no tonic clonic seizures just absences. I have joint pain also and I’ve noticed a difference in my motivation in work etc . I’ve stopped going out with friends etc because all I want to do on my days off is rest. Surely at my age this is not normal ? My husband doesn’t know the extent as to which I’m struggling

I am a 24 year old female, and have been having issues with random episodes of vertigo for about 2 years. I didn’t really start keeping track of how often they were occurring until a few months ago. I get them about once or twice a month, and they only last a minute or so.
Like I said, they come on randomly. Recently when they have occurred I have been just sitting at my desk, doing sit ups, and lifting weights (three separate occasions). As weird as it sounds, I know when I’m about to get an episode of vertigo because I get this weird buzz in my head (kind of like when your legs fall asleep), and then the vertigo hits. The whole rooms looks like it is spinning. This usually only lasts for a few minutes, I just try to sit still and breathe, and they go away.
I’m generally healthy. 5’4, 135 pounds. I was diagnosed at birth with pulmonary stenosis, but had a valve ballooned at 10 months old, and no longer have to see a cardiologist. I work out about 4-5 times a week, cardio and light weight lifting.
Any idea what could be causing this issue? I’m terrified when I google the symptoms online they mention brain tumors or TIAs. But at the same time, I’ve had this for about 2 years now, so I feel like I would have other symptoms if it was one of those two (hopefully). Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

I had blood test 10 days ago, the next day small bruises appeared then it started getting bigger. Even yesterday i noticed a new bruise. Besides the bruises, i have pain in my whole arm, I’m not able to do anything with my right arm. Today i applied gel on the bruises and took pills for the pain (Arnica). But I’m a bit worried… When does it heal? Does it cause any future symptoms?
