Experiencing dizziness, weakness, and balance issues. Possible MS?

I have been suffering from dizziness spells and poor balance, with buckling of knees and general weakness it lasts for 2-3 weeks and it's mostly starts with a severe one sided headache. The last episode was 3 months ago. Now I feel a bit out of balance and a bit weak in the knees. I have hypertension and it's controlled. When I went to the doctor for the three episodes of dizziness, the last time he said it's suspected MS but dismissed it after I felt better after I finished the medication. What should I do now?

The symptoms you mentioned may point to different causes like problems in the inner ear or variations in blood pressure. Since the last attack was a couple of months ago, it’s good that things have gotten better. Nonetheless, if they return or become worse than before, don’t hesitate to see your doctor immediately. Keep noting down how you feel and when it happens. Sharing this information with the doctor will assist in diagnosing what might be happening and devising an appropriate intervention plan.

Why my headache is not going away? It’s a throbbing headache in the temple of my head.

Female | 25

The throbbing headache you've got is like­ly tension-related. Stre­ss, fatigue, poor posture, or skipping meals can trigge­r these kinds of headache­s. Be sure to drink plenty of wate­r. Try relaxing with deep bre­aths or meditation too. If the headache­ won't quit, take a break. Rest in a calm, dark room for a bit.

Hi doctor I have a headache everyday and it only goes away if I take painkiller (ibuprofen) why I have this?

Female | 25

The headaches have arisen regularly and are usually relieved by painkillers. They are characterized by stress, lack of sleep, or a bad posture, and therefore are often the case. It is necessary to trace the main cause. I suggest you engage in stress-relieving activities such as deep breathing, stretching, and getting proper sleep and posture. If the headaches still exist, it is crucial to consult a doctor to diagnose and prevent any hidden causes.

When someone one trying to get alpha gpc for focusing on study then what dosage you give for 19 age

Male | 19

If you're considering Alpha GPC to enhance your studies, proceed with caution. A safe daily dose for a 19-year-old is 300-600 mg, but it's best to start with a lower dose for a few days to see how your body responds. While Alpha GPC may improve cognitive function, remember to maintain a balanced diet, stay hydrated, and get enough sleep for overall health and focus.

Your dad is experiencing dizziness, even though his heart, ENT, and neurology tests were normal. For older adults, dizziness can be caused by many things, like inner ear issues or medication side effects. Discuss additional tests with his doctors to find the exact cause, so the right treatment can be given.

Sir, I have headache like tight band with nausea, stress and tension. Sir please give me some medicines for relief.

Male | 17

You may have a tension headache. This headache feels like a tight band around the head and can cause vomiting. Common causes for these headaches include stress and tension, poor sleeping habits, or eye strain from looking at screens too much. To alleviate your symptoms, you should take some non-prescription painkillers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Additionally, get enough rest and drink plenty of water while trying relaxation methods like deep breathing exercises or light workouts. If they don’t go away or get worse it would be best if you visited your doctor so that he could give them proper attention.

Female | 19

This type of headache can cause pain not only in the head but also in the eyes and sometimes even in the chest. It is often accompanied by severe chills and body aches. Finding a quiet, dark place to rest can help. Drinking water and taking pain relievers like paracetamol can also provide relief.
