I am experiencing frequent mood fluctuations and get anxious easily. Recently, I have gained a lot of weight despite no changes in my food habits, and my thyroid test is normal. I often feel very sad, have no enthusiasm for anything, and feel like giving up easily. My sleeping patterns have changed drastically, I either sleep too much or very little. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

Sudden mood swings and weight gain with normal thyroid could be hormonal. Test for Vitamin D, B12, cortisol. Consider mental health support.
Dr. Yusuf Suggests...
Take a Vitamin D Test Test or Take a Vitamin B12 Test Test

For the past two months I have been having an internal pain in both my knees. My blood report is normal and there is no external swelling or redness. However, I feel internally as though my knees are numb and in spite of doing basic exercises I feel a pressure on my knees while walking. This problem persists throughout the day, making it difficult for me to even walk. As of the past two months I have been facing problems in walking and hence I take rest at home. The orthopaedic doctor checked my knees externally and said there is no problem. I request you to suggest the remedy that I should do to cure this problem as I am in deep pain. Thank you.
