Hello
My father in law (age 75) had been prescribed two medicines separately by two doctors in a short time gap. I wanted to know whether these medicines can be taken together in a day or not. He is facing constant dizziness and loss of sense of balance while walking almost all the time. The medicines are Syndopa 110 and Strocit plus.
Headache started before my boards I thought it was because of stress but it became constant,I have constant headache for more than a year which shifts sides depending on which side i sleep on.it sometimes gets worse when it comes to my left side,I have no other symptoms other than my headache.it mostly feels like some weight is put on me and sometimes like a nail is pierced in my head.
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.
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.
