I'm having this pain in my mid-chest, but it only happens with certain movements. I've talked to a bunch of doctors about it, even had some tests like an ECHO done, but everything seems normal. They mentioned it might be muscular pain or something called costochondritis. How long does something like this usually take to feel better? I'm really scared to even pick up my kid right now. Everyone has just suggested using Volini gel. Do you have any home remedies in mind that might help with this?

I've been on HCQS 200 tablets for about 15 years now for my rheumatoid arthritis. I'm starting to get a little worried if there might be any side effects from using it for such a long time. Could you tell me what I should look out for or if there's anything I should be concerned about?

I'm dealing with body pain every morning, and it's so hard for my mind to focus all day. I've been relying on Dolo 650 to get through, but now I feel like I can't live without it. I'm worried I'm becoming addicted. Are there other medications or ways to manage this pain and help my mind so I can have a better day-to-day experience without being dependent?

Using Benadon (diphenhydramine) without a medical issue is not recommended. Benadon is an antihistamine, not a heart-strengthening medication. It's essential to consult a doctor before taking any medication, especially if you're concerned about heart health or erectile dysfunction medication side effects.

I'm trying to understand the difference between the ANA test and the COVID antibody test. If someone has lupus, would they automatically test positive on a COVID antibody test? I'm just a bit confused about how these tests work, especially for those with autoimmune conditions.

No both are different
