I'm a bit confused about how to take the medication my doctor prescribed because he was too busy to explain, and the chemist's advice was different. They said to take Defcort 6 mg and Veloz Torrent before food once daily, but the chemist mentioned taking them twice daily after food or with food. Also, what are the side effects of Defcort 6 mg? Can you help me out with this?

Take Torkast FX once daily at night after food. Take Defcort 6 mg and Veloz before food, once daily in the morning. Defcort 6 mg may cause side effects like increased appetite, mood changes, or stomach upset; follow the dosage strictly as prescribed for the best results.

View allI'm feeling a bit worried because I've noticed a few cervical lymph nodes. Earlier today, I experienced a sensation like an insect bite, and now it feels like a lymph node might have burst. Is it possible for a lymph node to actually burst? What could cause that to happen, and what symptoms should I be on the lookout for?
Drinking lemon water before a fasting test is generally not recommended. Here's why: _Fasting Test Requirements_ Fasting tests, such as blood glucose or lipid profile tests, require you to abstain from food and drinks for a specified period, usually 8-12 hours. _Why Avoid Lemon Water?_ 1. _Caloric intake_: Lemon water contains calories, which can break your fast and affect test results. 2. _Blood sugar fluctuations_: Lemon water may cause a slight increase in blood sugar levels, which could impact test results, especially for blood glucose tests. 3. _Acidity_: Lemon water's acidity might stimulate digestion and potentially affect test results. _What to Drink Instead?_ If you're thirsty before a fasting test, you can drink: 1. _Plain water_: Water is calorie-free and won't affect test results. 2. _Black coffee or tea_: These beverages are calorie-free and won't break your fast.

I've just had my first dose of the Covishield vaccine and a few hours later, my heartbeat got really fast. Later at night, I started feeling back pain and body pain. Could these be side effects of the vaccine? I've also taken Dolo 650 to help. What should I do now?
