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 took an Alfoo tablet before bed about a month ago, and a strange thing happened. Around five hours later, I went to use the washroom, and on my way back, I suddenly fell unconscious. After a little while, I sat up and spoke, but then I blacked out again. Could this be from the Alfoo tablet? Does it mean I might be allergic to it? I haven't taken any other medication or passed out since then, so I'm a bit concerned. Any insights?
it just might be a sideeffect of that medicine, drink plenty of water next time with that medicine

I'm feeling really worried because I've been experiencing giddiness off and on for the past year. Last year, an X-ray showed my cervical spine is straightened. Then in March this year, tests showed my vitamin D and B12 levels were really lowat 6 and 190, respectively. After taking supplements for two months, I expected some improvement, but I'm still dealing with the same giddiness, plus pain and depression. It's really impacting my ability to focus at work because I'm constantly anxious about this. I've been told to keep up with the supplements for another two months, but I'm wondering if there's anything else I should be doing to help myself mentally cope and gain the confidence to go out alone. Any advice on what steps I should take next would be really appreciated.
Stay Consistent with Supplements: Continue your vitamin D and B12 supplementation, as per your doctors instructions, but follow up in a couple of months for additional testing. Neck Exercises: Try to incorporate neck stretches and gentle mobility exercises to improve spinal health. Practice Relaxation: Incorporate some mindfulness exercises like deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, or meditation into your routine to manage anxiety and tension. Small Steps: Try to gradually engage in small activities that take you outside your home. You could start with something simple, like going for a short walk or sitting in a park, and work your way up from there. This can help you regain confidence and reduce fear.
