Vegetative state
My brother had an accident on 28th of february and he is in vegetative state since then. Doctors said they cannot say when he will awake from this state.
I read an article on the internet about the treatment of parkinsons disease and the treatment of vegetative state with the carbidopa and levidopa.
I found that patients have remarkable benefits from levidopa since it produces dopamine in the brain.
I want give this treatment to my brother as well.
Please suggest.
Thanks and regards

Arnold–Chiari malformation
Sir/Madam,
I am suffering from Arnold–Chiari malformation, is a condition affecting the brain. It consists of a downward displacement of the cerebellar tonsils through the foramen magnum (the opening at the base of the skull), sometimes causing non-communicating hydrocephalus as a result of obstruction of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) outflow. The cerebrospinal fluid outflow is caused by phase difference in outflow and influx of blood in the vasculature of the brain. It can cause, muscle weakness,neck pain, , poor hand coordination (fine motor skills).Various surgery done from me to improve the muscle weaknesss but there is no improvement till now.

Life after Stroke
My dad aged 65 meet with undergone treatment for Brain attack - stroke in Oct.,2015 and recovered fully. And we do take him for periodical checkups and continue to take medicines as advised by doctors. Currently taking medicines named STROCIT PLUS and DEPLATT -CV capsules. Doctor continue to do Speech test, Hands up while eyes closed & smile test to review him in all checkups completed. Haven’t did any CT Scan/ Blood tests to review his current health condition. I just concerned about his life coz i read USA Stroke Association link named "Life after Stroke" which emphasis 50% of men’s will have recurrent stroke. Please clarify should we undergo Brain / Heart CT Scans for self-satisfaction or continue medications as advised by Doctor. If so please let me know which scans should we undergo to review stroke analysis . Please review and advise. Thank you.
