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.

Why does my head hurt everyday?
Constant headache can be due to stress, excessive coffee intake, lack of sleep, poor nutrition, increased screen time and it could also be due to underlying brain tumour. Contact your physician.

I'm getting frequent pain above my left eye, which spreads to the left side of my head, and it's really bothering me. The only thing that seems to help is sleeping. It tends to happen for any reason, but I particularly notice it if I've slept too much or spent a long time outside on a hot day. I used to have more headaches when I was younger, like till around 14, but they stopped and now it's happening again. The pain is usually mild when I wake up, but by night, it's unbearable. I'm curious what's going on here and what I should do?
Your symptoms suggest migraines or tension headaches, possibly triggered by sleep patterns, heat, or environmental factors; consider consulting a neurologist or primary care physician to rule out underlying conditions, and in the meantime, try maintaining a consistent sleep schedule, staying hydrated, avoiding triggers
