هل يمكن أن يسبب اعتلال الدماغ الكبدي تغيرات دائمة في الشخصية بعد الشفاء؟

دخلت جدتي في غيبوبة بسبب اعتلال الدماغ الكبدي. كانت بخير تمامًا حتى بدأت يداها ترتجفان وبدأت تتقيأ ذات صباح. ولم تكن هناك أعراض قبل ذلك. لديها تليف الكبد. تم نقلها إلى المستشفى بعد حوالي 12 ساعة من حدوث ذلك وتم وضعها في وحدة العناية المركزة بجهاز التنفس الصناعي. واستعادت وعيها خلال 24 ساعة تقريبًا، بعد أن تم إخراج الأمونيا من دماغها وصدرها. وكانت في حالة حرجة، لكنها تتعافى بشكل جيد. الآن بعد خروجها من جهاز التنفس الصناعي، لديها تغيرات ملحوظة في الشخصية مع ذاكرة جيدة. هذا بالنسبة لي مخيف للغاية. كما تبدو أيضًا أقل وعيًا بالبيئة وتستغرق وقتًا أطول للإجابة. هل يمكن أن تكون هذه التأثيرات مؤقتة أم دائمة؟

Answered on 9th Sept '24

يمكن أن يؤدي اعتلال الدماغ الكبدي، وهو سبب غيبوبتها، إلى بعض التغيرات المؤقتة في الشخصية وبطء التفكير. وذلك لأن الكبد لا يعمل بشكل صحيح وتتراكم السموم في الدماغ. ومع ذلك، قد يتم تقليل هذه التأثيرات مع العلاج والوقت.

Male | 24

You might be experiencing significant head discomfort, which could be due to a growth or lump. Such symptoms can cause concern. It's crucial to consult a doctor who can thoroughly examine you and provide appropriate treatment. Early detection makes treating conditions like cysts, tumors, or infections easier and more effective.

Sir, our patient was told by the Drs on the eve of the feast. He suffered a cerebral hemorrhage due to sudden high blood pressure. He was operated on and a drain was inserted. He was intubated for the first 3 days, and reintubated 4 days later. It was informed that our patient reacted to pain but could not wake up because he was unconscious. We watched him react to some reactions, but his doctors say that these reactions are meaningless, for example, when I tickled the bottom of our patient's right foot, I saw that his right toes made small movements and I saw him open his eyes. and I looked from left to right with eye movements and I saw tears flowing from my left eye, I couldn't see this feeling in the left foot. When we wet it with cotton, I saw mouth and lip movements move, I saw movements that were disturbed by thirst, but there was no speech, but the first 10 legs of his body were very swollen and cold. In the last week, keep the body on fire, from the feet to the head, the body temperature is very high. Our patient was operated on the 14th day. Drainage has changed Dear teacher, we need you about the general condition of our patient, can you get back to us, can we share our patient's information?

Erkek | 75

I would suggest to consult with the patient's doctors and nurses directly involved in their care for accurate information and updates regarding their condition and share your concerns directly with them.

Kya brain tb ka operation karna jaruri hai

Male | 12

SurGERY is not always neceSSARY for BRAIN TB treatMENT.. It depends on the severity, location, and response to medication.. DOCTORS may recommend surGERY to drain fluid buildup, remove a damaged portion, or relieve pressure.. However, medication is the first line of defense and often effective.. SURGERY carries risks and should be done only when required.. Always follow the doctor's adVICE and take medication as preSCRIBED..

my grandmother went into a coma caused by hepatic encephalopathy. she was completely fine until her hands started trembling and she started vomiting one morning. there were no symptoms before that. she does have liver cirrhosis. she was taken to a hospital approximately 12 hours after this happened and placed into an ICU with a ventilator. she regained consciousness in about 24 hours, after the ammonia had been flushed out from the brain and the chest. she was in critical condition, but has been recovering well. now off the ventilator she does have noticeable personality changes yet good memory. this to me is extremely scary. she also seems less aware of the environment and takes longer to answer. could these affects be temporary or permanent?

Female | 70

Hepatic encephalopathy, which is the cause of her coma, can result in some temporary changes in personality and slow thinking. This is because the liver is not functioning properly and the toxins are building up in the brain. However, these effects might be lessened with treatment and time.

I am a 46yr old female, experienced hoarseness for more than a year after covid, I did a ct scan which reveals Avidly enhancing extra axial mass just posterior to the pineal gland. Pineal region meningioma vrs pineocytoma.

Female | 46

The CT scan showing a mass near your pineal gland could be a meningioma or a pineocytoma, two tumors that can have similar effects. Both of them may result in headaches and vision problems. A neurosurgeon can help run through the methods, and the main treatment can consist of surgery or other alternatives, as the specific type of tumor requires.

It is always best to consult with her doctor to see what's the best course of action is for her. However, medications such as oxybutynin, tolterodine, and solifenacin may be effective in treating urinary incontinence. Additionally, physical therapy and pelvic floor exercises may help improve her walking and bladder control.

Multiple sclerosis affects everyone differently. I suggest you to get a second opinion from a neurologist who specializes in MS. They can provide a treatment plan tailored to your mother's specific needs. It's important to continue any ongoing treatment while seeking additional medical advice.

I am 48 years old and suffering from carpal tunnel from past 6 years. Earlier problem was not so much but now I am feeling numbness in my right hand while writing or doing any particular work. Should I go for surgery? Is there any physiotherapy after surgery and after how long I can do writing work as I am a teacher

Female | 48

You should go for surgery if your symptoms are very severe and make it difficult for you to do your everyday activities. Yes, after surgery, physiotherapy is done for better flexibility and strength. When can you resume writing and other work depends on the type of surgery you had and other things. It is important to listen to your doctor and start writing only after consulting him.
