I'm getting really dizzy whenever I stand up after sitting down for a bit, and it only lasts for about a minute but it's kind of worrying. Alongside the dizziness, I've been having this really bitter taste in my mouth, watery stools, stomach upset, and headaches. What could be causing all of these symptoms to happen together?

My dad has been dealing with covid and it's been about 6 days now. He's running a fever, peaking at 100F every 24 hours, and his oxygen levels are fluctuating between 93 and 97. He's had a cough even before this, but it seems to have gotten a bit worse since the covid diagnosis. While he's quarantined at home and mostly okay, he does mention feeling short of breath at times. What should we be doing to make sure he's on the right track health-wise?

regular breathing exercises, drink warm water, check BP and blood sugar regularly

I'm really worried because my husband, who's 33 years old, just got a positive result from his RTPCR test with a CT value of 32.819. He's had a mild cough and sore throat for the past four days, but his oxygen levels are at 99. I'm trying to figure out what this CT value of 32 means. Does it suggest a mild infection, or should we be more concerned about a greater level of infection?

Given your age, lifestyle, and symptoms, possible causes of mild chest pain include: 1. _Musculoskeletal issues_: Strained muscles or costochondritis (inflammation of cartilage connecting ribs to breastbone). 2. _Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)_: Stomach acid flowing up into the esophagus, causing chest pain. 3. _Anxiety or stress_: Tension leading to chest discomfort. 4. _Cardiovascular issues_: Although less likely given your lifestyle, it's essential to rule out conditions like hypertension, high cholesterol, or cardiac arrhythmias. Consult a cardiologist or a primary care physician for a thorough evaluation, including: 1. Physical examination 2. Electrocardiogram (ECG) 3. Blood tests (e.g., lipid profile, cardiac enzymes) 4. Imaging tests (e.g., echocardiogram, stress test) if necessary Don't hesitate to seek medical attention if you experience: - Severe chest pain - Shortness of breath - Dizziness or lightheadedness - Pain radiating to your arms, neck, or jaw
