Hello, my 16-year-old son has been living with epilepsy for approximately 6-7 years. We have consulted multiple doctors and tried various treatments and medications. Unfortunately, the prescribed medications have been unable to effectively manage his seizures. Over the past three days, he has been experiencing severe seizures that we have never seen before. Could you please advise if your hospital has a specialized neurologist with expertise in epilepsy treatment and surgery? We would greatly appreciate any feedback you can provide, including testimonials from other patients who have received care at your hospital. Additionally, we would like to know the price list for all treatments, including surgeries, and the types of surgeries you perform. We are currently exploring options for our son's care and would appreciate any guidance you can offer. Thank you, and we look forward to your response.

It’s always very worrying when a child’s seizures are as intense as you say and don’t seem to be affected by any drugs. This needs attention right away. When medicine doesn’t help, sometimes surgery will. The cost of treatment may depend on different things and I think it would be good for you to talk with the staff about that.

I was having a mild UTI infection for which I did a course of k ston, rotec and cefspan for 7 days. Now UTI symptoms have recovered but I feel numbness and pain in legs and feet. My body shakes and I feel weakness I can't bend my head as it feels my body is moving back and forth. Sometimes I also feel acidity, my head and neck hearts
Female | 21
You might be suffering from some adverse reactions to the medications you took for your UTI. Numbness, pain in legs and feet, body shaking, weakness, difficulty bending your head, acidity, and headache can be the side effects of the medicines. In cases like this, the medicines might not be suitable for your body. Make sure to tell your doctor about these symptoms for him to give you the right advice.

Pressure headache mostly around eyes behind nose and cheekbones. Generally feeling like I have a band around my head. Gets worse when I am bending over.
Female | 35
You might have a sinus headache. Sinuses are spaces in your face that can get swollen and cause pain. Pressure can be made worse by bending over. Other symptoms can include a runny or stuffy nose. To feel better, you can try using a warm compress on your face, staying hydrated, and using over-the-counter pain relievers. If you feel this way all the time, it is best to go to a doctor to be sure.

Female | 41
These symptoms together with unintentional loss of weight are worrisome. This could happen for many reasons including pulled muscles or problems with the cervical spine but it could also be something more serious so I would advise seeking medical attention soon so you can find out what is wrong before starting any treatment plan.

Hi in October 2022 my cpk was 2000 plus and crp was 12. Diagnosed with IIM. My leg muscles were affected that time. Early ild effects in chest ct scan. Started taking prednisone mmf 1500. But in Oct 2023 my voice is also affected can't speak now. Myositis panel of antibodies negative But Achr antibodies positive and ace levels are high. Still cpk is 1800 and hscrp is 17. 86. Diagnosed with myasthenia gravis and taking prednisone mmf and pyridostigmine now. Taken ivig also but still no improvement in voice and weakness. Recently I had severe diarrhea due to high dose of mmf. I want to know will rituximab treatment will be helpful for me. As my doctor is planning for that but now my cd 19 levels also high. Kindly suggest helpful which and what treatment is suitable and advisable.
Female | 54
It seems you're dealing with health issues like myositis and myasthenia gravis, which weaken muscles affecting your legs and voice. Since previous treatments haven’t helped, your doctor suggests rituximab to reduce inflammation and improve symptoms. Monitoring is important due to high CD19 levels. Be sure to discuss any concerns or side effects with your neurologist.

Seek immediate medical attention from a neurologist to determine the cause, as it could be related to factors, some of which may require prompt evaluation and treatment. Don't ignore concerning symptoms, especially if they are accompanied by weakness, difficulty speaking, severe headache, or changes in vision.

Actually I have been suffering from trigeminal neuralgia from 4 weeks which is not curing properly .. I m suffering with a lot .. I m a student , it's a distraction for me .. please tell me a proper cure which would be thankful for you
Female | 15
Trigeminal neuralgia is characterized by sudden, intense facial pain that can be triggered by trivial things such as talking or chewing. It is because a nerve in your face gets inflamed. To cope with the pain, you can use medicines like anticonvulsants or injections. In some cases, surgery might be required as a last resort. Talk to your neurologist about all your treatment options.

He can't walk carefully he falls down,he can't set on the floor he set on chair,he can't speak clearly and he is physically so weak he 7 years old.his weight is 17kg and his height is 105cm
Male | 7
Some kids have difficulty with movement and speaking clearly. This can stem from various reasons. One possibility for a child this age is a neuromuscular disorder, which affects the muscles and nerves involved in movement and speech. It's crucial to take the child to a pediatric specialist for tests to determine the exact cause. Meanwhile, ensure the child gets plenty of rest and proper nutrition. Avoid activities that risk falls or injuries. Addressing symptoms promptly helps the child feel better and stronger.

Male | 22
If you are experiencing neck stiffness, numbness at the back of your head, a bad headache, irritated eyes, body quivers, and extreme tiredness, these symptoms could be due to stress, lack of sleep, or an underlying medical issue. It's important to stay hydrated, take breaks from devices, and spend time outdoors. If the symptoms persist, talk to a healthcare provider for proper guidance.

Female | 47
Experiencing persistent discomfort in your head can stem from various factors, including stress, tension, hormonal changes, or even lifestyle choices like diet and hydration. It’s essential to recognize any accompanying symptoms, such as vision changes or nausea. While self-care measures, like regular exercise, adequate hydration, and stress management techniques, can be beneficial, I strongly suggest consulting a neurologist. They can provide a comprehensive assessment and tailored treatment plan, ensuring you receive the best care possible.

I advise you to get a pediatric neurologist and make an appointment as soon as possible for your daughter and her problems. A solitary nerve damage from a seizure on the right side of her brain might necessitate more tests and/or treatment.

I have needle sensation all over my body n even itching n my stomache pain alot lower abdomen even my back bone it pain n used to have panic attack while splng what is it
Female | Abei
Experiencing a tingling sensation, itching, and abdominal discomfort can be linked to various factors, including stress, anxiety, or nerve-related issues. These symptoms might arise during moments of stress or panic. It's essential to engage in relaxation techniques, maintain a balanced diet, and ensure proper hydration. Regular physical activity can also help alleviate tension. However, since your symptoms involve multiple areas of discomfort, I recommend seeking guidance from a neurologist. They can offer a thorough evaluation and tailored solutions to address your concerns effectively.

When I woke up this morning, I couldn't get out bed. I felt dizziness and total blackouts afterwards. I still lying down. What should I do and what might be the cause of this?
Male | 25
You might be going through orthostatic hypotension. This is a long word that means your blood pressure is too low when you try to stand up. This may lead to you feeling lightheaded and dizzy, and eventually, you might even pass out. To help, try moving stairs at least when you get out of bed, and keep hydrated. If the pain continues, visit a neurologist for a thorough check-up and guidance.

Female | 20
It sounds like you’re experiencing significant discomfort, which could be linked to conditions like migraines or tension headaches, especially when exposed to bright light. Nausea and difficulty concentrating may stem from this. Stress and anger can exacerbate these symptoms, leading to a cycle of discomfort. I recommend taking regular breaks in a quiet, cool space, staying hydrated, and practicing relaxation techniques. However, it’s crucial to discuss these symptoms with a neurologist for a comprehensive evaluation and tailored advice.

You should consult for a second opinion right away. Hemifacial spasm can be a symptom of another neurological condition, including an aneurysm. A ruptured cerebral aneurysm is a medical emergency that requires to be treated promptly. Speculating on life expectancy without the proper medical evaluation is inappropriate. As soon as you can, see a neurologist.

I am 30 years old. I had anxiety for 4 months and nerve damage like sciatica pain for 2 months and lower abdominal back pain and upper front pain for 3 days, today it's getting worse.
Female | 30
The stress and nerve pain that you are experiencing might cause muscle tension which results in discomfort in various parts of your body. The stomach ache as well as the pain in the anterior part could be associated with heightened awareness in your nervous system. To alleviate these symptoms, it is important to deal with both anxiety and nerve issues. Try doing mild stretches, and deep breathing exercises or seek help from healthcare providers who know how to manage such conditions.

It is concerning that your continuous headaches (4-5 year) with Vasograin as prescribed by a doctor. There might be a need for you to reassess the situation and get medical advise from a neurologist who is well trained in the management of headaches and their complications. They could give a more profound diagnosis as well as offer possible replacement treatment options. Furthermore, don't shy away from visiting the office and speaking with a specialist that can help you out.
