I am diagnosed by my doctor with severe anxiety disorder, depression and pppd . Started with paroxetine 12.5 cr for 1 month. It definitely working for both anxiety and pppd by 50%. So now my doctor wants me take paroxetine 25 mg cr But i can not tolerate 25 mg cr even after 1 month. So can i take 12.5 mg cr twice a day ? Rather then 25 mg cr od ?
I always feel a lightheadedness with pain at base of my skull which sometimes goes to back of the ears. My neck remains stiff too. I got rhinitis allergy once at 2019, my nose feels congested too. It's disturbing, i feel lack of focus in studies with this. Is this ear issue or neurological or bone? Whom should I meet ENT? or orthopaedic or neuro surgeon?
Hello Doctor, I have recurrent neck/cervical pain. I previously had around 14 days of physiotherapy and took neurological medication for a few days, which helped temporarily, but the pain has returned. My pain usually starts in the back of my head and then moves to my neck and shoulder. Sometimes I feel pain/clicking sound when moving my neck. I also occasionally experience blurred vision along with headaches. I also have sinusitis and a nasal polyp. Could these contribute to my symptoms? Considering all these symptoms, should I consult a neurologist, orthopedic doctor, or ENT specialist first? Do I need any examination or imaging?
I’ve been having recurring headaches, and they’ve been getting worse this year. The pain is not limited to one side it can feel more general/around my whole head. The headaches can become quite intense and interfere with my normal activities. I’ve noticed they can happen or become worse after I’ve been outside for even 5 min. I’m concerned because this has been happening repeatedly and the overall pattern seems to be getting worse compared with before. I also sometimes experience nausea/vomiting around the same time, and I want to know whether that could be related. I’d like to be properly evaluated to find out what type of headache this is and whether I need any examination or tests.
Hi All, I have been experiencing a very strange kind of pain on the upper left side of my head, just above the ear. It started about 4 days ago. The pain was quite intense during the first two days, and since then it has changed into a radiating, throbbing, or “zap-like” pain that comes and goes. Two days ago, I woke up around 5:00 AM because of neck pain along with pain in that area of my head. However, I was able to go back to sleep later without any issues. Unfortunately, I searched Google and read that headaches that wake you up from sleep can be a sign of a brain tumor, which has made me extremely anxious. This morning, I also experienced some dizziness, although I’m not sure whether it was due to stress and fear or something else. The throbbing/zap-like pain continues to come and go. I have tried taking a vitamin B12 tablet and a painkiller, but I haven’t noticed much relief. Attached picture I have a history of health anxiety (hypochondria), so this has significantly
