Get seen in-person: With such symptoms that may or may not be related, one has to get a calendar (available online) and write down the various symptoms she has, when they occur, what the symptoms interfere with, what makes symptoms worse, what makes symptoms better, what activities are done each day, what foods are eaten each day... and bring the diary to her doctor for evaluation.

Question 4

no additional information other than the above?

Accepted Answer

Headache: The gradual onset of a nonthrobbing headache is more consistent with muscle contraction tension headache. A very severe headache of  sudden onset, especially if accompanied by vomiting, confusion, altered alertness or visual disturbance, is more worrisome and warrants immediate evaluation in the hospital emergency room. I recommend taking acetaminophen or ibuprofen and relaxing in a quiet room.

Question 5

is there a point at which additional exercise doesn't help any more?

Accepted Answer

Not really: In general, the benefits of exercise are limitless. One can always improve their level of fitness. Sometimes, people can plateau with long-term continuation of the same exercise routine.  Modifying exercise routines by varying intensity, exercises, exercise environment and timings and by cross-training and taking a week-long muscle rest every 6 weeks can help you see continual improvement.

Question 6

what are some additional benefits that come with having a  health insurance plan?

Accepted Answer

Depends on the plan: Insurance plans are somewhat like clothing. Some cover  a lot and some cover next to nothing. If the gov wants to help with healthcare they could define by statute, different levels of coverage (low end to high end), standardize the wording & require all insurers to have identical policies for identical levels. Now every policy issued has so much small print, you never know what's covered.

Question 7

so my question is if taken a 4 months plus and it is negative can it turn positive at the 6 months mark which is additional 2 months?

Accepted Answer

Unclear question: If you are asking about HIV test, a 4th generation is generally reliable at 4 months after exposure. Just to be sure, you should get a HIV nucleic acid test at 6 months after exposure.
Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/.

Question 9

what is addison's disease?

Accepted Answer

Adrneal failure: Rare but very serious, and often missed for a long time especially if the person is considered to suffer emotional illness. The adrenal cortex fails to make the cortisol that one needs to stay perky; nausea and weight loss are only the beginning. President kennedy suffered from it. Patients need to carry a medical alert and a cortisol needle.

Question 10

is addison's disease painful?

Accepted Answer

Maybe GI pain: Addison's disease, or primary adrenal gland insufficiency, is a condition where the adrenal glands don't make enough cortisol, aldosterone, and adrenal androgens. These hormones control blood pressure, appetite, fluid balance, stress response, among others. The classic symptoms of severe addison's are extreme fatigue, dizziness, nausea/vomiting, pallor, salt craving, weight loss, skin darkening.
