A message to The Doctor

My body is falling apart! Medical problems of a recent occurrence:

Sleep Problems and Wheezing - started with hot weather, triggered in sleep (2-3 hours after going to bed) when cannot breathe without getting up (uncontrollable coughing). Started about a month ago - possible allergy to dust or mould (mattress on floor). Disappears soon after getting up. Also run out of inhalers. Also having trouble with sleep hours and going to sleep (keep waking up with night terrors - last month only). Also, I get coughing and wheezing when dusting/tidying flat.

Two dead toenails - possibly in-growing. Started last November and cannot cut these properly. One of them is turning black but there is no pain.

Mole(s) - scratched one on right leg last week and it started to bleed (possibly a mosquito bite). Also dimple on left wrist appeared 2 months ago but is red and not going away. Is there anything wrong with my skin.

Bottom Bleeding - when having a dump blood sometimes comes out. On a visit a few years ago I was diagnosed with a cut in this area but it healed up - now it appears to be triggered soon after taking coffee and/or Paracetamol.

Dull pain at base of spine - occurs intermittently but feels related to getting too much / too little sleep and appears when paracetamol wears off. I don't think this is related to exercise or diet.

Exhaustion and lethergy - probably related to the about symptoms but it is causing problems with doing things, for example physical exercise, falling asleep reading a book or causing frustration, depression and anger.

Paracetamol use - due to aches, pains and discomfort (including headaches and sinus pain arising from Hayfever and lack of sleep) I have been taking paracetamol most days (2-4 tablets) to calm the pain. Is this causing problems?
