Health Q&A
Sudden loss of control in right hand
My friend suddenly experienced a loss of control or weakness in their right hand around 12:30 AM while using computer. The episode lasted approximately one minute, after which their hand returned to normal. There were no other noticeable symptoms. What could have caused this, and should they undergo any urgent medical evaluation or tests to rule out a TIA (mini-stroke) or another neurological issue? Could this be related to his gym routine, muscle fatigue, nerve compression, or the use of creatine or whey protein supplements?

Am i going to die soon??
37M. I was fine until ~50 days ago. Since then I have intermittent head heaviness/fogginess, needing extra effort to concentrate/work, mild dizziness and a feeling that my head/body is not fully focused. I get random brief pin-prick pains in different scalp/head areas and occasional brief zap/electric sensations; these are now less frequent. I also have heaviness/tightness at the back of my head and lower neck. At times I feel internal shaking without visible tremor. Occasionally I feel subjective leg heaviness and positional finger tingling, but I can walk, work, drive and perform daily activities without persistent weakness or falls. Symptoms often reduce when busy. I have anxiety about brain disease and am seeing a psychologist. Video neurological assessment was normal. Eye examination, including fundus/optic discs, was normal. B12 was 219 and Vitamin D 7 four months ago. Could this be anxiety/migraine, vitamin deficiency, cervical spine/neck-related, or another deadly neuro conditi
