I'm dealing with some really bad leg pains and swelling, and my ESR levels are pretty high. I'm not sure which type of doctor I should reach out to for this issue. Can you guide me on who best to consult for high ESR and my leg problems?

I'm really worried about this weakness and leg pain I've been experiencing. I've been taking Medrol for my swollen lymph nodes in the chest, with doses starting at 12mg, then 8mg, and now 4mg for about a week each. But just a couple of days before I was supposed to finish the 4mg dose, I suddenly started feeling extremely weak and my legs are in so much pain. It's been like this since. Any idea what might be going on?

I'm dealing with body pain every morning, and it's so hard for my mind to focus all day. I've been relying on Dolo 650 to get through, but now I feel like I can't live without it. I'm worried I'm becoming addicted. Are there other medications or ways to manage this pain and help my mind so I can have a better day-to-day experience without being dependent?

Using Benadon (diphenhydramine) without a medical issue is not recommended. Benadon is an antihistamine, not a heart-strengthening medication. It's essential to consult a doctor before taking any medication, especially if you're concerned about heart health or erectile dysfunction medication side effects.

I'm really struggling with some health issues and could use some advice. Every time I get a cold or cough, I end up having trouble breathing, and it also triggers this back pain. Doing everyday things like washing clothes or standing for a while makes my back ache even more. When I have a cough, I can actually hear strange sounds and feel vibrations with my breath, which is worrying. I feel horribly sick, like my whole body is in pain, even when I'm just doing normal activities. Walking to work leaves my legs aching, and if I try something like dancing, my arms hurt like crazy. I'm just wondering what could be going on?
