Question

I'm having some trouble with upper back pain near my neck and shoulder, and it's really starting to bug me. Sometimes I even get this mild breathing issue, but its kind of on and off. When I sneeze, there's this weird foul smell thats really bothering me. I've had a spirometry test done and it came out normal, so there's that. I know I'm low on vitamin D, so I'm taking supplements for that. I've also been feeling joint pain in my hands from time to time. Any ideas on how to deal with this upper back pain? And do you think all these symptoms are connected somehow?

Question

I've got this breathing issue, allergic bronchitis, and I'm also dealing with fibromyalgia. The doctor told me to take Ultracet semi twice a day. But when I looked it up, it said it might not be safe for people with breathing problems. Should I be worried about taking this medication?

Question

I'm a 29-year-old guy, and I spend a lot of time sitting in front of a computer because of my software job. It's been about a year since I found out my uric acid levels were high, so I cut back on protein and I'm eating vegetarian now. I don't smoke, and I'm not really working out currently. My last uric acid level was at 7.0. I just got some blood work done, including Liver Function Tests, and it showed my globulin level is low at 1.81, and my albuminglobulin ratio is 2.81. Everything else in the LFT was okay. Is this something to be worried about? Should I be doing other tests to figure out what's happening, or could this all be related to my diet? What lifestyle or dietary changes do you recommend? And which kind of doctor should I get in touch with for advice?
