I've been dealing with hypertension and have been taking Olmzest 20 every day. Recently, I've been experiencing this persistent neck and shoulder pain, so I went to see a neurologist who prescribed Trigabantin 300 and Etoshine 120. I've been a computer operator for the past 15 years, which probably adds to the stress. I've already started Trigabantin 300 and it's been two days now. But I'm a little hesitant about starting Etoshine because I read about its potential side effects. Could you give me some advice on whether it's safe to take both medications and if the benefits outweigh the risks? I'm just looking for a second opinion to ease my mind.

I'm really concerned about whether this condition can be cured permanently or if it's something that might come back. And I'm also wondering about fit attackscan they be completely cured, or is there a chance they'll recur?

While there is no definitive permanent cure for Epilepsy at this time, there is an opportunity for those living with Epilepsy. By understanding the issues and the potential solutions for an effective treatment, we can pursue a path to a future in which Epilepsy will no longer be an issue that lasts for a lifetime. Despite these difficulties, Researchers are looking for ways to find an effective cure. Some of the research areas include: Gen therapy is changing genes to treat seizures caused by abnormalities. Stem cell therapy uses the stem cell to restore damaged cells within the brain and restore function. Neurostimulation employs devices for stimulating the brain and reducing seizures.

I'm experiencing twitching in my upper lip for the past four days, and I really don't know what's causing it or how to stop it. I'm currently on blood pressure medication, so I'm wondering if that's linked somehow. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

Upper lip twitching can be caused by various factors such as stress, fatigue, caffeine intake, or nutritional deficiencies. To help stop the twitching, you should try to include magnesium in your daily supplements. Make sure to stay hydrated and get enough rest. If the twitching persists, consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

I've been dealing with pain in my lower jaw near my ear, and my neck for about five months now, and Im getting really worried. I first saw an ENT a few months ago, and he didn't find any infections in my sinus or ear. My dentist mentioned a few issues, and I got those treatments done, but he still thinks it could be a tooth fracture, and also suggested checking for TMJD or Eagle Syndrome. Meanwhile, my general physician thinks it might be trigeminal neuralgia. My symptoms include a constant burning pain in the lower jaw under the ear with mild swelling on the right side, ear pain, and a clogged feeling with a small lump on the side of my neck. An ultrasound didn't reveal any abnormalities, but there's ringing and a soft humming sound in my ear, especially when I lie down with the AC or fan on. My ear feels completely clogged at times, and theres sore pain on one spot on the top of my head above the ear, plus a constant feeling of something being stuck in my throat, and my neck feels tight and stiff. This all started back in May when I was chewing a lot. I'm thinking of going back to the ENT; do you think they could help diagnose if this is some kind of neuralgia or nerve issue? It's been a really tough time, and I'd love some advice on what to do next.

To further manage your cough: - Avoid irritants: dust, smoke, and pollution - Stay hydrated: drink plenty of warm fluids - Rest: get plenty of sleep to aid recovery - Saline nasal sprays: help moisturize your nasal passages - Consult your doctor: about cough suppressants or alternative treatments Remember to follow your doctor's guidance and attend follow-up appointments to ensure a smooth recovery.
