I'm a 52-year-old who has been on Parkinson's medication, specifically Syndopa, for the past year. Recently, I've developed a stomach infection and was considering taking O2 tablets for it. Is it safe to combine these with my current medication for Parkinson's? I'm a bit worried about any potential side effects or interactions.

I have diffuse disc bulges from C3 to C6 and take pregabalin and tramadol but still need aceclofenac 100mg twice daily for proper pain relief. Physiotherapy didn't help and multiple doctors say surgery isn't an option. Is it safe to keep taking aceclofenac long-term? I'm worried about kidney damage but don't have other choices for pain management.

discectomy is advised.

I'm really concerned because for the past few days, my index finger on the left hand has been twitching a lot. It doesn't hurt, but it used to happen only occasionally and now it's happening all the time. I work with computers all day, but this twitching occurs even when I'm not using the laptop, like when I'm just resting. My other fingers are totally fine. When I saw a doctor, they mentioned it might be due to computer use or a vitamin deficiency. I'm just wondering, could there be any other reason for this? Is there any medication I could take to help with the twitching?

each organ of the body can withstand some amount of stress , if strain for muscle exceeds its capacity muscle become fatigue and causes twitching. This is not only for finger , it happens after strenuous exercise , anxity etc.. Nothing to worry , take nutritious food and strengthen your muscles .

I'm starting to feel concerned about my health because I've been experiencing a heavy tongue and slurred speech sometimes. I've already checked for any kind of stroke, and thankfully, that came back negative. I've been feeling quite distraught and restless occasionally. I used to be diagnosed with sleep apnea, but I've been using a CPAP machine, and my sleep has improved quite a lot since then. Despite that, I sometimes notice muscle weakness in my thighs and calves, and I also have lower back pain. An MRI showed that I have a bulging disc that's pressing on my nerves. I'm really perplexed about the heavy tongue and would love some insights on why that might be happening.

all reports are normal it can be due to anxiety
