Answered on 28th May '24
This sounds like the symptoms of a condition called postural orthostatic syndrome (POTS). POTS can make you feel dizzy, lightheaded, or faint when you stand up. It can also cause your vision to blur when standing up, heat intolerance, and nausea upon standing up. Vyvanse could worsen these symptoms. Drinking lots of fluids and adding more salt to your diet might help. Talk to your doctor about this.

Hi My daughter who is 6 has epilepsy was diagnosed last year after having a first major seizure. She has had 3 brains surgery two to remove fluid from the brain and recent a VP Shunt put in her head. She is on cannabis oil as this is only helping her. Her behaviour is out control and she never had this issue till she had seizure last year. One the right side of the brain she has one nerve causing her have silent seizure till now no doctor can help her I am depress seeking help to live a normal life
Female | 6
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.

Actually my father had a mini stroke last week. After that we visited doctor they did ct scan and ecg tests. Everything was normal but the ct scan report said that in the left side of brain its little bit injured due to high blood pressure. Now, from 5-6 days he is unable to do any work with his right hand, rest everything is ok. And also he forgot his atm pin, where he kept documents and all.
Male | 47
It sounds like he might have experienced a small stroke (mini-stroke or TIA). It's good that the CT scan and ECG were normal, but the injury on the left side of the brain could be causing the weakness in his right hand and memory issues. I would advise you to consult a neurologist for further evaluation and management.

Kell phenotype positive in blood test! Necessarily Mcleod syndrome should be present ? Will I go mad ? Like king henry ? No kids ?
Male | 25
This is not always the case, occasionally a positive K positive blood test may be diagnosed as McLeod syndrome. McLeod is pretty rare and it has some symptoms that are not found in any other disease such as muscle weakness or even heart problems. The most important thing is to get the ok from a neurologist who will give you more complete details.

What is the treatment of head tremor
Female | 16
Head tremors cause involuntary head shaking or moving. Stress, tiredness, and medical issues trigger them. Finding the reason is crucial for treatment. Sometimes, reducing stress levels, proper rest, medication helps. For severe tremors, physical therapy or surgery may be options. Working closely with a neurologist determines the right treatment approach.

I tend to jump to worse case scenario but I recently got diagnosed with vertigo caused by middle ear fluid and recently it’s came back since where I am the weather has gotten worse and my vision is kind of blurry sometimes and I have a hard time focusing on someone when they are talking how likely is it that this is being caused by a brain tumor and not the middle ear vertigo or am I just completely over thinking this
Female | 21
The blurry vision and the difficulty in focusing can be the vertigo that the ear fluid causes. It is common and it does not mean that you have a brain tumor. The ear fluid can mess up your balance and vision. Usually, it gets better on its own, but you might need medicine or special exercises if the problem keeps bothering you.

Good day doctor Since childhood, I have always been pressing on my nerves and muscles throughout my body, and I can't control myself. It's like grinding teeth, but in my body, and it's voluntary. These are not spasms; I do them, but I can't stop them. When I try to stop myself, I feel like I'm going to explode. The issue was minor in childhood and significantly reduced during adolescence almost to the point of disappearing. However, over the past few years, the problem has worsened significantly. Currently, I'm squeezing my body's vertebrae, especially my neck, and I feel like it's twisting. I consulted a psychiatrist and neurologist who said there is no organic issue, just a bit of anxiety. I took medications for anxiety and stress, but there was no effect. Thank you very much for your time
Male | 34
The nature of your symptoms probably is involuntary muscle contractions or muscle spasms. It is necessary to have the condition assessed by a neurologist who specializes in movement disorders or a physiotherapist who will be able to look at your condition in person and guide you properly.

I have pain in my head in one side only and pain side face swelling also and some times pain side eye vision is getting dull
Female | 38
It feels like you might have sinusitis. Sinusitis can make one side of your head hurt, swell up your face, or affect your sight. This occurs when the sinuses in your face become infected or inflamed. Try putting warm wet towels on your face, drinking lots of water, and using saline nasal sprays. If it still hurts, contact a healthcare provider for further treatment.

My 5 year old epilepsy any treatment
Male | 5
Epilepsy can be challenging for children, with symptoms like shaking or blank stares. It could be due to genetic factors or underlying brain issues. Consulting a pediatric neurologist is crucial for diagnosis and management. Medications and sometimes special diets can effectively control seizures and improve quality of life.

I'm 17 years old. I'm having sleep problems.i can't sleep properly in night, it's almost took me 2 hours to sleep even after closing my eyes. And in day time , my eyes started to burning
Female | 17
Seems like you might have insomnia, that is the inability to fall asleep or stay asleep. If you can’t fall asleep at night this can cause tired eyes that burn all day long. Stress, caffeine and use of screens before bedtime are some common reasons why teenagers suffer from this condition. Establishing a night time routine, avoiding caffeine and switching off the screens before going to bed may help improve your sleeping patterns.

I'm a practitioner in Navimumbai since 30yrs and my grand child 9months old normal mile stones till now normal , has started showing typical stereotyped movements in the upper limbs and my daughter being a ophthalmologist feels it is like infantile spasms. I'm worried. She stays in chattisgarh. What can be done? Kindly help Dr.
Male | 9months
Jerky motions in a baby's arms may be infantile spasms, a seizure disorder common around this age. These sudden twitches in limbs need medical care quickly. See a pediatric neurologist soon for proper tests and plan. Early action matters to avoid issues and help the baby's growth.

Female | 26
Brain tumors are scary. Headaches, blurry eyes, speaking weird, stumbling around, and mood swings happen. They might come from genes, radiation, or yucky chemicals. To know for sure, doctors look at pictures of your brain from an MRI or CT scan. If you're worried, ask a neurologist to get checked out. With the right care, tumors can be treated properly.

Urgent- I am 53 old male with history of restless leg syndrome from approx. 20 years. With time it as become more severe as because I can’t sleep for many nights. By advance diagnosis doc discover i lack in dopamine production. I am having depressing thoughts .. can u give me promising treatment?
Male | 53
No single "promising treatment" will work for everyone with restless leg syndrome. Commonly recommended treatments include medications, lifestyle changes, and physical therapies. Medications and treatments can be prescribed only after a proper diagnosis. Rest you should avoid caffeine, alcohol, and tobacco to reduce the severity of symptoms. Physical therapies such as stretching, massage, and yoga can help relieve muscle tension and improve sleep quality. It is also important to discuss any feelings of depression with your doctor and consider seeking therapy or counseling.

Help me dr headache problem
Male | 22
There are many reasons why people get headaches. For example, pressure or strain due to stress can cause it; failure to drink water may also contribute, and spending too much time looking at a screen can be another factor. To relieve yourself of these symptoms ensure that you are taking enough water and breaks as much as possible from screens while getting adequate sleep each night. If they persist then see a doctor immediately.

My daughter is 11 years, she is having a persistent headache for past one month, doctors have ruled out migraine, sinusitis and the MRI reports are also normal...as per her she doesn't have any stress...would seek your suggestion.
Female | 11
It's confusing when tests don't reveal obvious causes like migraines or sinus issues, and her MRI looked normal. Some possibilities are tension headaches, eye strain, or dehydration. Encourage drinking lots of water, taking breaks from screens, and getting enough sleep. If headaches persist, see her neurologist again to explore other potential reasons and solutions. Ongoing pain is hard, but keep searching for answers.

Male | 25
It looks like you've been occasionally experiencing some nasal clogging known as DNS over the past one year. DNS is an abbreviation for deviated nasal septum. It represents a situation in the nose where one side of the wall is not positioned correctly. It's important to see an ENT specialist if you've been experiencing DNS for three months. They can evaluate your condition and recommend appropriate treatment options.
