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.
Hi Doctor, after walking little bit more >2-3km my upper thigh and side hips muscle starts paining. Mainly all the area covered under underwear . Sometimes look like burning sensation in side hips bone. Don't know whether it is due to any kind of inflammation, swelling or strain. Please let me know what should i do ?
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.
Hello Doctor, I had a single seizure in June 2025 and have been taking my medication regularly since then. I have not had any seizures after that. I am planning a trip to Ladakh in a few months, which involves long train travel and high altitude. I want to know if it is safe for me to travel in these conditions, especially considering sleep changes and altitude. Also, could you please guide me on what precautions I should take during the trip, what symptoms I should watch for, and what I should do if a seizure happens while traveling? Should I carry any emergency medication or take any additional precautions? Thank you.
