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.
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.
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??
