Fungal pneumonia
I may be suffering from severe fungi infection. One of the signs I have is dryness and irritation in my inner thigh. My scrotum is always itchy. Someone suggested It might be Jock itch which is a yeast infection.
I've had this condition for years now and I've often overlooked it. 2 years ago I started having other complications such as cold intolerance, dryness of skin( which I assume is due to lack of oxygen), pain around my ribs, fatigue, weight loss and exhaustion, constant headache, red eyes especially at nights, blue lips and skin. I can't withstand cold or fan, I can hardly concentrate, diarrhea, shaking chills.
I ran a few test such as urinalysis, widal test, glucose, HIV, chemical pathology, thyroid function test, complete blood count CBC, Liver, all these test showed am healthy.
One particular sign is yellowish mucus and sometimes bloody mucus when I have flu and rashes around my ears. It also seems like my immune system is really down.
Kindly advice me on what to do

Low Bone Mass? Osteoporosis? Or cancer
I am asking on behalf of a friend who refuses to see a doctor. Some of the details of the subject:
- in her early 30s. Height: 155-160cm. Weight:53-60KG
- has celiac diseases & Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
- takes a lot of pain killers during migraine & menstrual times
- last blood test shows a high amount of hormone level (i forgot if it's estrogen or progesterone)
- doesn't really take proper meals and take gluten stuffs a lot even with celiac diseases
Anyways, the story is she has been having pain in the bones (starting from the legs) for about 6 months now. And then it starts going to the ribs and sometimes she said she feels in the whole body. It happens randomly. While I believe that it could be due to her hormone imbalance and insufficient nutrients that speeds up osteoporosis or low bone density, she believes that it's bone cancer and refuses to consult professionals.
So my question is what is the situation? What are the possibilities?

Single calcified pulmonary nodule in right upper zone overlying the superior border of right 2nd rib (grade 3.3)
Both hilla appear normal, mediastinum normal, cardiac size normal, both domes of diaphragm normal, CP angles are clear, soft tissues and bony cage is normal.
Hence the results they have mentioned abnormal, what kind of medication or treatment do i require and what does this abnormality suggests? I don't have any pain or any other symptoms related to chest pain or breathing problem or fever, cough except a little fatigue.

Stomach and digestion issue
I have pain in my stomach just below the left rib. It feels like something is tightly stuck or gripping inside, and sometimes it feels like something is moving there, which causes severe pain. My stomach is never properly clear, and I often experience incomplete bowel movements. Sometimes, there are unusual sounds coming from my stomach. This problem has been there for a very long time (around 20 years).
I drink a good amount of water, but even after drinking water, something comes back up from my stomach, like a foamy substance (similar to when we mix detergent in water).
I avoid oily food. I practice yoga, eat fruits, and consume normal home-cooked meals.
Another issue is that my weight is around 60 kg, but I look thin compared to my weight. I also have dark circles, wrinkles, and a lot of pigmentation on my face. I feel tired most of the time.
I have consulted many doctors and taken almost all types of medicines for constipation and gastric problems, but problem is still the same.

Grade 3 Fatty Liver
I have been diagnosed with a Grade 3 Fatty Liver in Nov having CAP 303 and KPA 11. I have reduced my weight from 125 to 120. In mid December I got another Fibroscan done. This time CAP is 338 and KPA 6.5. Since then I have reduced another 4.5 Kg of weight. But sometimes I feel slight pain or uneasiness in the right side of the ribs area. Current prescribed medications are Bilypsa and thiotres.
Can someone tell what exactly is happening and is there any need for change in medication?
Also can I take a Liver Detox capsule consisting of Milk Thistle along with current medication?
Can someone suggest diet? I am pure vegetarian and mostly getting protein from Double Toned milk, paneer, curd, butter milk, besan, legumes, soya chunks. Also, using mustard oil mostly and sometimes desi ghee. Max 20 ml per day.
Also, I have kidney stones in both kidneys 3.1 mm and 2.4 mm.

Dextrocardia/ situs inversus
Hi all,
I'm male,age 33, height 5.10 ft,weight around 95 kg
Last 1 week. I play football 3 days a week.
I generally don't have breakfast and have lunch at 2pm
I'm dextrocardia / situs inversus.
I'm having pain in my left rib cage area in one particular spot. The pain is slowly moving in the front part of the chest as well ( my feeling)
I'm having heaviness on my chest as well for few minutes once or twice a day
To be on the safer side, I took ecg, echo and chest scan. It's normal.
But I want to know the reason for the pain in my ribcage area. Last 2 to 3 days, my spinal cord starting point near the bum is slightly paining.
Is it because of any muscle catch or gas or anything related to heart.
Please help. I have always been healthy and this is the first time I'm getting these symptoms.
Should I take any test to confirm
Not taking any tabs as of now.
