Age 40 years, female. For the last 2 months, I have been experiencing sudden electric shock-like sensations from the lower back down to both legs. It happens occasionally and is associated with severe pain. I also feel tingling and numbness in the legs, and both legs often feel heavy. I do not have any known drug allergy.
I have impaired awareness seizures & take tegretol 200mg morning / 300mg nighttime. 53kg/177cm Titration started Jan 2026. Should nighttime very intense teeth grinding, thrashing, panicky noises (definitely seizure and not parasomnia) be improving by now? Daytime has improved a bit. What is the normal expected timeline? Also have IUD for adenomyosis. IUD controlled pain but now tegretol has caused lots of uterine cramping. What options to manage this or any long term suggestions that helps? Also any quick general advice for someone on tegretol long term? Risks and how to minimize deficiencies? Thank you for your time your advice is greatly appreciated.
My mother went blank today morning, she is forgetting things. Now also she doesn’t remember a lot of events and keeps asking repeated questions Consulted neurologist, he diagnosed absence seizure She doesn’t even remember we went to Dr Just want to ask will she be okay because she can’t remember events and ye long term toh nahi hai? If you have any idea CT came normal , he asked to get EEG done Any chance of it recurring again? Also Dr prescribed epilex chrono 300 twice a month, is it safe to take?
Doctor, I am experiencing a daily sleep disturbance. Every morning between 3:00 and 4:00 AM, I wake up with a distinct feeling of heaviness and numbness localized to the back of my head. The sensation is quite disruptive and prevents me from getting a full night's rest. I have noticed a specific pattern: when I wake up and transition from lying down to a seated position, the heaviness and numbness start relieving slowly and after around 1 hr I start feeling better. But if I sleep try to sleep just after getting up that head heaviness remains there.
1) Major problem:- I have been feeling forehead tightness ( pressure like) since last 2.5years . I don't have throbbing pain. This head tightness become worse as soon as I start studying, eating spicy food and sweet products and Mobile/Laptop screen. 2)All tests Normal:- Brain MRI, Urine, Blood cbc, thyroid, Ct PNS ( Sinusitis), Sugar test, BP, etc. 3) My earlier lifestyle:- I was preparing for competitive exam since 2020 via online class in Mobile. So, I cut all physical activities and Outdoor sports and devote my max time in study . 4) Visited many doctors but nothing worked. 5) Due to frustration, typed my problem in Chatgpt. It examined my problem as -(Tension headache with Brain Hypersensitivity). Prescribed medicine - Dezula 20mg, Nortimer 25mg. Initially it worked for 3 months like magic and i was able to study like normal. But Nowadays, again same problem arises. 6) will my problem permanent, not curable??
