Question

I'm really worried about my wife's situation. She's been having this constant pain and numbness in her calf whenever she tries to sleep at night, and it's really affecting her sleep. We recently did a full blood test, and everything seemed almost normal. Someone suggested she should start taking B complex, so we've been trying that. But is there anything else we can do to get rid of this nighttime calf pain for good?

Question

I'm experiencing something strange with my left ear. Occasionally, it feels numb and there's this odd tingling sensation. Sometimes it even spreads to the left side of my face. What could this be? Should I be concerned?

Question

I've been working in a pharmaceutical industry for 29 years, and recently, due to my morning shifts, I'm only getting about 5-6 hours of sleep. Last night, out of nowhere, I fainted. It all started with feeling lightheaded, stiff, and shaky, my eyes even rolled up, and I was sweating a lot. I called my husband just before I lost consciousness, and I don't remember anything for a few seconds. He kind of shook me, and everything felt like it was spinning. After a bit, I got stable and then ended up puking everything out. This whole thing has me really worried. Could this be something serious?
