I'm feeling really worried because I've been experiencing giddiness off and on for the past year. Last year, an X-ray showed my cervical spine is straightened. Then in March this year, tests showed my vitamin D and B12 levels were really lowat 6 and 190, respectively. After taking supplements for two months, I expected some improvement, but I'm still dealing with the same giddiness, plus pain and depression. It's really impacting my ability to focus at work because I'm constantly anxious about this. I've been told to keep up with the supplements for another two months, but I'm wondering if there's anything else I should be doing to help myself mentally cope and gain the confidence to go out alone. Any advice on what steps I should take next would be really appreciated.

Stay Consistent with Supplements: Continue your vitamin D and B12 supplementation, as per your doctors instructions, but follow up in a couple of months for additional testing. Neck Exercises: Try to incorporate neck stretches and gentle mobility exercises to improve spinal health. Practice Relaxation: Incorporate some mindfulness exercises like deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, or meditation into your routine to manage anxiety and tension. Small Steps: Try to gradually engage in small activities that take you outside your home. You could start with something simple, like going for a short walk or sitting in a park, and work your way up from there. This can help you regain confidence and reduce fear.

I've been nursing a bump on the back of my head for a few days now, after slipping in the bathroom and hitting a tiled wall. I've noticed the swelling is almost gone, but the area still hurts when I touch it. Should I be concerned about a potential internal injury or is it pretty normal for this kind of thing? Would love some advice on whether it's wise to get it checked out.
1. _Misoprostol administration_: You've taken 600mcg of Misoprostol. 2. _Ultrasound findings_: Remaining products of conception (POC) detected. _Next Steps_ 1. _Consult a healthcare provider_: Discuss your situation with a doctor or obstetrician. 2. _Surgical management_: Consider a dilation and curettage (D&C) procedure to remove remaining POC. 3. _Medical management_: Alternatively, your healthcare provider may prescribe additional Misoprostol or other medications to help expel the remaining tissue. 4. _Follow-up ultrasound_: Schedule a follow-up ultrasound to ensure the uterus is empty and the abortion is complete. _Important Considerations_ 1. _Infection risk_: Incomplete abortion can increase the risk of infection. Monitor for signs of infection, such as fever, chills, or heavy bleeding. 2. _Bleeding and cramping_: Expect some bleeding and cramping during the completion of the abortion process.
