Can I understand my EEG results before neurology appointment?
I had an EEG done a couple weeks ago and my neurology appointment is a month away. I'm trying to make heads and tails with what I've been told

Answered on 28th May '24
If there were any abnormal brain waves, your doctor may want to investigate further. Things like seizures or even bad headaches can cause strange brain wave patterns to show up on this test. So, it’s good news that you have an appointment with a neurologist coming up soon. They will be able to help you figure out what comes next based on what’s been going on with you and what showed up in the EEG.

im a 13 year old female who experienced fainting for the first time and i’ve been having headaches and getting dizzy my knee then hurt suddenly but i taped it and it has been better
Female | 13
It’s understandable to feel concerned after experiencing fainting, headaches, dizziness, and sudden knee pain. These symptoms might be related to dehydration, low blood sugar, or even stress. It’s great to hear you’ve used tape on your knee, which can help stabilize it. Ensure you are drinking enough fluids, eating balanced meals, and getting enough rest. However, since this is your first fainting episode and you have multiple symptoms, it’s really important to speak with a neurologist. They can provide a thorough evaluation and tailored advice to ensure your safety and well-being.

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.

My partner has had a total of 3 seizures from overdoses. She's sober now & I really need to know the health implications, mainly in relation to brain function / impairment. The reason I am even more worried on top of the seizures, is that during each one her whole body would go limp, and her eyes would go blank. I don't mean like looking forward, I mean a legitimate dead look to it, a glaze, I was somewhat reminded of cataracts; seemed as if her actual soul was disconnected from her body & her lips would start going gray/blue; shallow breathing if any at all during this specific part. Put simply, it looks as if she was momentarily dead..
Female | 24
Her seizures from overdoses are a serious concern. If your partner is sober now, it is important for her to visit a neurologist to treat any long-term effects of her overdoses.

Female | 22
Feeling weak, nauseous, and getting headaches is normal after finishing malaria medication. Your body needs time to recover from the infection. Rest well. Drink lots of fluids. Eat healthy foods. It can take a while for your body to feel 100% again. If symptoms worsen or persist, consult your neurologist.

I have pain near my one side temple region
Female | 18
Pain localized to one side of your temple may stem from various factors, including tension, migraines, or sinus issues. Often, accompanying symptoms such as sensitivity to light or sound can indicate a migraine, while pressure around the nose may suggest sinus problems. Staying hydrated, managing stress, and practicing relaxation techniques can help alleviate discomfort. However, it’s essential to keep track of your symptoms and consult a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation. They can provide personalized care and recommend the most suitable treatment options to address your concerns effectively.

Severe headache and small bump in the right side of head
Male | 21
It may be a result of a recent head injury or tension headache, among other risks. The bump could be a consequence of the pain. One of the ways that can be helpful is to put a cold pack on top of the bump. Lie down afterward for a short rest. If this still doesn't go away, it is advisable to ask for a healthcare professional's opinion for your own safety.

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.

The pain in your right temple and eye could be due to your shortsightedness, as eye strain can cause headaches. However, it could also be related to sinus issues. I recommend visiting an ophthalmologist to check your vision and an ENT specialist to rule out sinus problems.

Female | 39
A stroke occurs when the flow of blood to the brain is hindered, causing weakness or trouble in moving a limb on one side of the body. Symptoms that may develop in this condition are fever, cough, and physical weakness. It is absolutely vital to get medical attention immediately if a stroke is suspected, as early intervention is crucial for recovery.

Hello ,I'm 16 years old.Have had headache for 3 years now.It never goes away.Even with enough rest I still yawn during day time.It becomes severe especially during daytime.
Female | 16
It's understandable to feel concerned about persistent and severe headaches, especially at your age. These symptoms may indicate various factors, such as tension, stress, or even dietary choices. Yawning frequently may suggest fatigue or inadequate sleep quality. I recommend keeping a headache diary to track triggers, frequency, and intensity. Prioritize relaxation techniques and routine sleep patterns. However, since your headaches have lasted for an extended period, it's important to consult a neurologist. They can offer tailored advice and evaluate any underlying issues that may need attention.

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.

My cards keep pulsating and feel like at any moment might cramp it's keeping me awake what can I do
Male | 30
Pulsating sensations in your legs, combined with feelings of potential cramping, may result from factors such as muscle fatigue, dehydration, or electrolyte imbalances. To alleviate discomfort, try gentle stretching exercises, stay well-hydrated, and consume foods rich in potassium and magnesium, like bananas and nuts. Applying heat or taking a warm bath may offer additional relief. However, if these feelings persist or worsen, it’s important to seek advice from a neurologist for a thorough evaluation.

Female | 9
Seizures make one's body jerk or stiffen. They occur for varied reasons like epilepsy or fevers. Epilepsy is a condition that may lead to seizures in some instances. An MRI exam helps doctors examine the brain closely. Working closely with a neurologist is crucial to developing an optimal treatment strategy for her well-being, despite the challenges her situation presents initially.

Female | 35
I understand that chronic headaches can be quite challenging, especially following your accident. Migraines often stem from various triggers, including stress, diet, and hormonal changes. It's essential to maintain a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins, while avoiding excessive caffeine, alcohol, and processed foods. Staying hydrated is also crucial. Additionally, medications like over-the-counter pain relievers or prescribed treatments may help. I strongly encourage you to consult your neurologist for a comprehensive assessment and tailored recommendations, as they can better address your specific condition and history.

The stroker or synchronized swimming effect of water can occur after a stroke due to weakness in the throat muscles. Ask the doctor if they can refer you to a speech therapist to help improve swallowing. They may also suggest safe methods for eating and drinking.
