Why did I faint in hot weather?
Hi there, I am a 19 year old female. I am born in London, UK. I am currently away on holiday in Saudi Arabia. It’s currently around 40 degrees. I was walking whilst holding my bags & I suddenly became unable to see for a second & felt sick and dizzy. I felt like my heart was beating really fast and I could not breathe properly. I sat down and tried to cool down & drank cold water. After resting, I got up in the attempt to continue walking however, I felt really faint and my heart was beating even faster again. I felt my eyes rolling, I didn’t entirely faint and black out but it felt as if I were going to. I sat down and got escorted by a golf cart. However, I am unsure if I am okay or what it is I should do. I want to know what happened. I do still feel lightheaded and sick. But I am not sweating or red anymore.

You may have gone through heat exhaustion. This is when your body's internal thermometer becomes too hot and fails to function properly. The symptoms arising from such illness include, but are not limited to, faintness, dizziness, experiencing a fast heart rate as well as the feeling of nausea. The solution is to move to a cool area, drink water, and rest. Avoid the scorching sun and keep your body as cool as possible.

I have excess B6 vitamin levels from past 6 months numbness and pain in feet … I stop taking pyrodioxine from past 6 months yet no change in pain
Male | 24
Sensory issues, specifically numbness in the feet and its pain are one of the potential causes of B6 vitamin overdose. It is great you have ceased using it. Your system could take a long while to gain steadiness. A balanced diet rich in vitamins and moderate physical exercise remain the basic activities. If pain persists, kindly consult a neurologist. They will assist you in determining suitable options for you to handle your symptoms.

I want ask if can take brahmi capsules for increasing my memory for examination and My exams are within 1 month. My age 21 How much should be the dosage? Will it help?
Male | 21
Brahmi capsules are often used for potential memory enhancement, but their effectiveness varies. Before trying them, consult a doctor due to differences in dosage and individual response. Generally, a 300-450 mg dose in divided amounts is common. Start well in advance of exams. Remember, supplements should complement good study habits, sleep, and a healthy diet. Side effects and interactions exist, so consult a neurology professional.

Hello my grandfather had a paralyse on left arm and left leg 6 years ago. For this years was good, only arm and leg has difficulty to move.yesterday he has a blood pressure was 20, and couldn’t move.Now is in his bed and just stays with close eyes. We speak to him and he just open the eyes and didn’t speak since yesterday. One doctor said that he may have Covid and is ranked. I am worried about this
Male | 80
A sudden drop in blood pressure, especially to a level as low as 20, is a medical emergency that requires immediate attention. It can lead to less blood flow to vital organs, including the brain, and result in symptoms such as loss of consciousness and difficulty moving. These are serious symptoms pls don't ignore those. Your neurologist and their hospital team can guide you with treatment.

I can study for maximum hours from school time . But suddenly i felt sleepy during book reading or using laptop . Memory weak brain fog like condition . Forehead always warm now . Headache always . How to make my brain efficent . Any medical test suggestion for me .
Female | 29
You seem to be feeling tired, and unable to focus, and you often have headaches. These symptoms can have several different causes, such as stress, sleep deprivation, or even nutrient deprivation. To improve your cognitive ability, try to sleep, drink water, and eat a diet that contains all the vitamins and minerals. It is all about getting sleep and staying hydrated. Taking short breaks in between study times is helpful too. If these symptoms do not leave you alone, then I advise you to consult a doctor for a complete assessment.

Hello Sir, I have Andrealine rush problem, especially during morning hours. I used to take beta blockers for some other problem. They were very helpful in controlling andrealine rush and keeping mind relax. As I am not longer taking beta blockers can you suggest any alternative for andrealine rush problem. Thank you!
Male | 29
Stress, anxiety, or hormonal changes can cause hyperactivity. If beta-blockers aren’t available, practices like yoga, meditation, deep breathing, or light exercise can help. These methods calm both the mind and body, reducing adrenaline and promoting relaxation. For better results consult a neurologist.

Female | 24
Headaches can arise in many ways, for example, stress, lack of sleep, or even looking at screens for too long can cause them. It's better to lie in a peaceful place, drink a lot of plain water, and abstain from excessive screen time. If the pain persists, you need to go to a doctor and get a thorough checkup done.

Female | 23
Sleep difficulties and sensations of irritation or goosebumps could be due to many factors. It's essential to establish a relaxing bedtime routine, maintain a consistent sleep schedule, and create a comfortable sleeping environment. Reducing stress through relaxation techniques and avoiding stimulants can also help improve your sleep. If the problem persists, consider consulting a neurology professional or a sleep specialist from known hospitals for further evaluation and guidance.

18F, 44 Kg (97 lbs.), 4'11, Asian, South Asia In March, I blacked out while brushing my teeth. I rushed to the hospital, and the doctor said it could have been a seizure. Since then, I’ve been dealing with the following symptoms: Blacked out while brushing my teeth in March Ongoing headaches (cervicogenic- earlier, now only head aches) Facial numbness that started around the same time Doctor suspected the headaches were due to acid reflux (medicated for it) Had an MRI for seizure protocol (clear results) Skull dents appeared out of nowhere and are getting worse over time Blood pressure fluctuations, sometimes dropping unexpectedly Headaches continue intermittently I don’t drink milk but have been taking Vitamin D supplements due to possible deficiency (recommended by doc) I’m wondering if this could be related to calcium or Vitamin D deficiency, or if it might point to something else. I'm really concerned about the skull dents, and I’m not sure if these symptoms could indicate something serious
Female | 18
Thank you for laying your worries out; it is normal for you to be worried about the symptoms you are experiencing. The injuries in your skull and the ongoing headaches could be caused by several different things, including structural changes or lack of proper nutrition. Vitamin D may be needed, but checking calcium levels is also a crucial part of the prevention. It's great that your MRI was clear, but if you are still feeling the symptoms, you should get a neurologist's opinion. The doctor I recommend should examine your condition more comprehensively and then advise you.

I am 47 years old female .I suffering from headache last 8 months
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 am 28 years old male. I am having severe throbbing headache on the sides of the head as well as on the eyes. I also have swelling on my eyelids. i have extreme headache when i bend down or sneeze/cough. I also have nausea and vomited x3-4 times today
Male | 28
It may sound like you have a condition known as sinusitis. Sinuses get inflamed when spaces around the nose are filled with too much mucus due to colds, flu, allergies, or other conditions. This can lead to pain in your head especially when you lean forward or cough/sneeze; it also causes swelling in the eyes, nausea, and vomiting. To feel better try using warm packs on your face and take pain relievers that can be bought over the counter. Keep yourself well hydrated and rest enough too. In case these signs don't go away, you should see a doctor who will check them out further and treat them accordingly.

Male | 36
If you are having freezing and tightness in the back of head then it could be a neurological condition that must be evaluated by a neurologist. And for low vitamin D3 you need to consult a physician or an endocrinologist.

I am having hormonal migraines due to my period starting soon. My go-to remedies are not having any effect lately. I have already taken Excedrin but with no improvement. I want to take naproxen-sumatriptan. Can I take this after taking Excedrin? How long should I wait?
Female | 29
If Excedrin hasn't provided relief for your hormonal migraines, it's best not to take naproxen sumatriptan without consulting a doctor. Combining medications without guidance can be harmful. Seek advice from a healthcare provider or pharmacist for a safe alternative or proper timing to take naproxen-sumatriptan.

My head is aching I'm dizzy I'm tired I can't stand straight I can't breathe well In general I feel like I'm dying It's not letting up And my sinuses are acting up Since yesterday
Female | 17
Your symptoms, including headache, dizziness, fatigue, and difficulty breathing, may suggest a sinus infection or allergy-related issue. Dehydration and stress can also contribute to discomfort. Please ensure you’re drinking plenty of fluids and resting. Using a humidifier may help ease sinus pressure. However, since your symptoms are persistent and severe, I strongly encourage you to seek medical attention promptly. A neurologist can assess your condition accurately and provide the right treatment.

Female | 22
This condition called muscle twitches is typically benign, as it were. Stress, fatigue, or even the consumption of too much caffeine can be the causes of the condition. Try getting enough sleep, using relaxation techniques, and eating less caffeinated food. But if it still happens or becomes more intense, it's better to get it checked by a neurologist just in case.

I have headache continuously. In my report of MRI it shows that I have preventricular cyst in my head Medicine is going on but I have headache What should I do
Female | 15
You may be suffering from a ventricular cyst, which is located near the brain. It is a fluid-filled sac near the brain. The reason that it causes headaches is often due to being under pressure. Adding to this, receiving regular medication, I recommend also not to forget being well-hydrated and staying stress-free. Were the pain to continue being severe or getting worse, you should report the headache to your neurologist for a new assessment and even alterations to the medications prescribed.
