Divalproex sodium 500 mg is used primarily to manage conditions such as epilepsy, bipolar disorder, and migraine prevention. It works by stabilizing mood and reducing seizure activity. Take the medication as prescribed, usually once daily with food to minimize stomach discomfort. Common side effects may include drowsiness or gastrointestinal upset. It’s essential to communicate with your neurologist about any adverse effects or concerns.

Shaking, racing heart, weakness, balance issues, and fast thinking are signs of different issues. Low blood sugar due to a poor diet, anxiety, or other medical conditions can be the cause. It's important to get help. For now, consume something with sugar, such as a piece of fruit or a teaspoon of honey. Do not forget to see a neurologist and get a proper evaluation.

Spinal implants is used for spinal cord injury
Male | 50
Spinal implants are typically not used to treat spinal cord injuries directly. Instead, they are more commonly used to stabilize the spine and provide support in cases of spinal fractures, deformities, or degenerative spinal conditions. Treatment for spinal cord injuries often focuses on rehabilitation, oral medication, and supportive care to maximize function and quality of life. However, in some cases where there's spinal instability due to injury, spinal implants may be used as part of surgical intervention to stabilize the spine and prevent further damage.

Hello guys, I am a male 24 years old. So in early 201 9 i started to get weird symptoms than at the end develop constant feeling of them.lt all started with just sinus pressure and dizzines,but it develop in to constant unsteadiness like i am walking on a boat 24/7.It does never stop not even for a single second. It does not matter if i am laying,sitting or walking the sensation is there always.This sensation is accompanied with sort of like bouncy vision which is constant same as the unsteadiness.lts hard for me to focus on objects because i have a sensation that they are moving or bouncing.This dual sensation varies in intensity depending on the day. Those both sensation are going on for 5 years.l have developed anxiety with it and often find myself panicking over this symptoms I did an MRI scan that showed no malignat changes on the brain and a C6-C7 discus hernia and relative spinal stenosis. I also went to few ENT doctors,that recommended me to do a deviated septum surgery which i got. They said it could be to air pressure in my ears and oxygen deficiency which ultimately did not prove to be right. I went to a few neurologist that all said the same,that there is nothing wrong according to them I also went to an eye doctor who said i do not have anything wrong with my eyes despite my bouncy vision.Even when i explained my symptoms she said that she had never heard of something like this On the recommendation of my ENT doctor i did caloric test that show the next parametars: Right ear showed 2.20 and left ear showed 2.50 (keep in mind i do not know what this means) I also have checked my blood vessels on my neck to check for circulation and it came out fine I am literally out of options and i do not know what to do next. Anyone out there with simillar kind of symptoms? Can anybody give me some advice for what to do next?

You might be dealing with a condition known as vestibular migraine or chronic subjective dizziness. Given your symptoms and history, it would be best to consult a neurologist who specializes in vestibular disorders. They can provide more targeted treatments and help manage your symptoms effectively. Please visit a neurologist for further evaluation and proper guidance.

I am 13 year old female and I have a headache and nausea. It started in the evening I cried after that I felt dizzy. I slept and when I woke up I was dizzy and nauseous. Do you know why it is like that?
Female | 13
Feeling headaches and nausea could be from several reasons. You might get this when you’re very upset or stressed because you’ve been crying a lot. Being lightheaded might also make someone feel like throwing up. Perhaps you twisted oddly in sleep or didn’t have enough to drink yesterday. Try lying down in a quiet room for some time; have a glassful of water and eat something small if possible.

Now it's mctd with myasthenia gravis had been diagnosed. Mi 2 a and 2b also positive. RNP/sm positive. RP155 POSITIVE. iam on prednisone and pyridostigmine now. Is this ok or any other medicine should be taken. CPK is 2272
Female | 55
You’re managing a complex situation with mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) and myasthenia gravis. Your test results show positive markers, which means your immune system is attacking your healthy tissues. The combination of prednisone and pyridostigmine is helping control your symptoms. Since your CPK levels are high, it might be due to muscle damage. Your doctor may consider adjusting your medications or adding new ones to address inflammation and muscle weakness. It’s important to stay in close contact with your neurologist for regular check-ups and to discuss any new symptoms or issues.

I have been having severe head pain for over r years now which I have used different medications like pain relief, at times the head pain last for 3 days before I will feel little relief
Female | 26
Headaches that last long are tough. You might have migraines. They bring throbbing aches, noise/light bothers you, feeling nauseous. Stress, hormones, and foods can cause them. Try relaxing, sleep routine, note triggers. If it doesn't ease, see a doctor. Managing migraines takes effort but help is out there.

Hello sir, I have a pain in my left side skul part ...it had so many years .but now thepain gets worst...more pain...that pain passes to the left sideof ear ,eye, throat, hand also ...and one more thing is...now left eye is getting pain and falls tears also...what is this symptoms
Female | 26
You could be undergoing a migraine experience. Migraines can bring about severe pain in the head which is usually unilateral. It can then spread from the eye, ear, throat, and sometimes even to tearing. Going through the menopause, you may have seasonal hormonal changes. Most people feel that climate change can trigger migraines. To try to avoid migraines, note what triggers to look for, practice some relaxation techniques, and get over-the-counter drugs used with guidance under the care of your doctor could be some good ideas.

You could be having some pain on the left side of your head leading to anxiety and pain in your left body side. Such signs may result from tension, lack of enough sleep, or dehydration. Drink water, have some sleep then try doing deep breathing exercises which can help reduce this pain.

I was playing game for 9hour while leaning and 5 minutes after I went downstairs,I felt sudden lightheadnesz and sudden eye blurriness for a few seconds
Male | 13
It's common to experience dizziness and blurred vision after prolonged screen time, especially if you're leaning forward. This can be due to eye strain, dehydration, or a sudden change in posture. To alleviate these symptoms, take regular breaks, hydrate, and ensure proper lighting while gaming. When possible, practice stretching exercises to improve circulation. If these feelings persist or worsen, I recommend consulting a neurologist for a thorough evaluation to rule out any underlying conditions.

Hello sir my mother is having paralyzed stroke and she is having nerves problem also kindly update me is it possible to operate
Female | 62
A paralyzed stroke is a condition where the blood supply to a certain part of the brain is minimal. This may, consequently, lead to nerve complications that can result in paralysis. Performing surgery on the brain in the case of stroke-related issues is rarely the first line of treatment after a stroke. Rather, the physicians place more emphasis on rehabilitation therapy to restore the patient's ability to walk and do everyday activities.

My father is having blood clot in his brain. Which was recently found . He took medication for the same through drips for 5 days . Its been 20 days or more now he says that he feel numbness in hand and feel headache similar to the ache during the cold. And also he feel dizzy sometimes . Is this a normal symptoms of the brain blood clot or an serious issue?
Male | 54
\When a blood clot forms in the brain, numbness in the hand, headache, and dizziness could be worrying. The brain may be deprived of blood supply or there could be pressure on it due to these signs. Make sure he sees a neurologist again because these new symptoms might require more treatment or assessment.

Male | 28
The ailments you mentioned, such as pounding pain, sleepiness, and fatigue are normal for a concussion. Drink no alcohol and take it easy, but don't sleep now. See if you can manage to stay awake for a few hours and check your symptoms. Go to the doctor in case the symptoms become more serious.

Female | 17
If you wake up in the morning with a dull ache running from your temples and shoulders down to your back, accompanied by dizziness and tiredness, you might have tension headaches. These headaches are often caused by stress, poor posture, and eye strain. Meditation and yoga can help, along with checking your posture, taking short breaks from screen time, and getting enough sleep at night. If the symptoms persist, make an appointment to discuss your condition with a neurologist.

How to recover from paralysis
Male | 68
Being unable to move a part of the body is what paralysis is all about. It can be caused by different things such as strokes, injuries or diseases like MS. Common signs include loss of sensation and/or inability to move. Your comeback will depend on the cause; if it’s due, to, for instance, a stroke then one may recover quicker than expected but usually physical therapy is always recommended. In addition, healthy eating habits exercise, and keeping a positive mindset go a long way in aiding recovery.

Doctor, the patient has cerebral palsy dystonia. Is steam cell treatment better ordeep brain stimulation beneficial for him, Because deep brain stimulation is beneficial for Parkinson’s patients only, and its success rate is high because it is primary dystonia and he has secondary dystonia. Thank you very much.
Male | 28
In this case, deep brain stimulation may not be the best choice since it's typically used for Parkinson's disease. Stem cell therapy that replaces damaged cells instead could be one of the ways to do it. Cerebral palsy dystonia can cause muscle stiffness or uncontrollable movements. Always consult with a doctor to explore suitable options.
