I'm really concerned about my aunt. She suddenly got numbness on the left side of her body a few days ago. We went to the doctor right away, and they thought it might be just a gas problem, so they prescribed some tablets for three days. But today we got her ECG report, and it mentions Sinus Rhythm and left axis deviation. When we showed the report to the doctor, they suggested checking her sugar levels. We just got that test done, but we're still waiting for the results. She's really scared and stressed out about all of this. Could you take a look at her report and tell us if there's anything serious we should be worried about?

SInus rhythm with left axis deviation does not warrant any cause for concern on an ECG. Her numbness may have been caused due to neuropathy resulting from increased sugar levels, as seen in diabetic patients. This is why she has been suggested a sugar level test.

I'm really concerned about a pulsating sensation I've been feeling above my temple, which seems to extend towards my ear. It's become quite severe at times and feels like a sharp, injecting pain. This has been happening on and off for a few months now, and I'm genuinely worried that this might mean my blood vessels could burst. I've also got some stress, wisdom teeth pain, and ear blockage on the same side. Everything seems to be happening on the right side of my head, and it's making me really anxious. Is this something serious that I should be worried about?

yes
