I'm struggling to find the right kind of medical help for overcoming porn addiction. I've been searching for years but haven't had much luck locating a suitable doctor. Can someone explain the treatment methods and process involved? It would really help me figure out what to do next. I'm feeling a bit lost here.

Widal Test Results and Typhoid Diagnosis
Based on your Widal test report, here's an interpretation of the results:
Widal Test Results
- TO (O titer): 1:30 dilution ( borderline positive)
- TH (H titer): Negative
- AH (A titer): Negative
- BH (B titer): Negative
Diagnosis
A single Widal test is not conclusive for diagnosing typhoid. However, considering your symptoms (fever around 99F, twice a day) and the borderline positive TO titer, it's possible that you might be infected with Salmonella Typhi.
Next Steps
- Consult a doctor: Share your Widal test results and symptoms with your doctor. They may recommend further testing or treatment.
- Blood culture: A blood culture test can help confirm the presence of Salmonella Typhi bacteria in your blood.
- Treatment: If diagnosed with typhoid, your doctor will prescribe antibiotics to treat the infection.
Important Notes
- Monitor your symptoms: Keep track of your fever, and watch for other symptoms like abdominal pain, headache, or rash.
- Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of fluids to help manage your fever and prevent dehydration.
- Practice good hygiene: Wash your hands frequently, especially after using the bathroom, to prevent the spread of infection.

View allI'm feeling extremely worried and tense since April, and it's affecting my breathing. I checked with my GP, did all the tests like thyroid, sugar, hemoglobin, and CBCthey're all normal. My ECG showed sinus arrhythmia. I'm on a tapering dose of Metxl 12.5 once a week after consulting with my GP. However, I'm still experiencing these anxious episodes where my pulse suddenly shoots up, and I feel hot, sweaty, and shaky. Sometimes, there's a headache, and I can even feel my pulse in my head. My heart races, and I get left arm and shoulder pain, along with nausea and loss of appetite. I rarely feel any chest pain, possibly due to anxiety, but it's mild. I've tried to calm myself, but this seems to have become a constant part of my health. Should I get another heart check-up because I did an ECG in June, or is this just anxiety? I'm really confused about what to do next.
It sounds like you are experiencing symptoms of anxiety along with physical manifestations such as increased heart rate, body heat, sweating, tremors, nervousness, headache, and left arm shoulder pain. Since your recent ECG showed sinus arrhythmia and other tests were normal, it is likely that these symptoms are primarily due to anxiety. To help manage your symptoms, you can consider taking an anti-anxiety medication such as **Xanax (alprazolam)** at a low dose of 0.25mg as needed for acute episodes of anxiety. Additionally, you can try **Propranolol (Inderal)** at a dose of 10mg as needed to help with physical symptoms like rapid heart rate and tremors. It is important to continue with your tapering dose of **Metoprolol (Metxl)** 12.5 once a week as prescribed by your GP. If your symptoms persist or worsen despite these measures, it would be advisable to follow up with your GP for further evaluation and to discuss the possibility of a referral to a cardiologist for a more detailed heart check-up.

I'm a 23-year-old guy and I've been having sexual thoughts every day. I end up masturbating daily and can't seem to stop, no matter how hard I try. It feels like there's always a trigger, and even though I've tried to quit porn multiple times, I haven't been able to. What can I do to get a handle on this?

I'm feeling a bit anxious because I've been experiencing a heaviness in my head and pressure in my chest. I've already had some health check-ups, including blood tests like CBC, thyroid, lipid profile, and sugar levels, and they all came back normal. I've also undergone an ECG, stress test, 2D echo, and a CT scan of my brain, and those were normal too. I'm just not sure what to do next or if there's anything I should be worried about. Can you help figure out what might be going on?
