I'm dealing with this sensation like there's something stuck in my throat, and I've been getting this weird fast heartbeat along with feeling dizzy at times. What could be going on with me? Should I be worried?

These symptoms could be due to acid reflux causing a sensation of something stuck in your throat, along with palpitations and dizziness. You can try taking Omeprazole (Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast for acid reflux. Additionally, you can take Meclizine (Antivert) 25mg as needed for dizziness. If symptoms persist, consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

My mom has severe asthma and has had a pleomorphic adenoma in her parotid gland for 20 years.

Yes, it's possible to remove a pleomorphic adenoma in the parotid gland under local anesthesia. While general anesthesia is commonly used for superficial parotidectomy, a skilled surgeon can perform the procedure with local anesthesia, especially for smaller tumors or when the patient has specific contraindications to general anesthesia, like severe asthma

I'm really worried about my 2-month-old son's hearing. He didn't pass the OAE test, and when we went for the BERA test, the right ear showed no response, and the left only a slight response at higher thresholds. Some folks tell me that hearing can still develop until he's around 1.5 years old, but our pediatrician thinks we should see an ENT for possible interventions once he turns 6 months. I'm torn about what to do. Can anyone recommend a good doctor who specializes in this? Also, are there any effective treatment options we should consider?

Its completely understandable to feel unsure and worried about your babys health, but following the pediatricians guidance to see an ENT specialist after 6 months is a wise decision. Early intervention can significantly improve the chances of normal speech and language development.
