I've been feeling some weird things lately, and I'm a bit worried. Last night, my sister said I was experiencing jerks in my sleep. Today, I'm noticing that parts of my body seem to move involuntarily when I'm trying to fall asleep. Plus, I've barely slept more than 5 hours a night this past week. Is this something I should be concerned about? Could it be serious?

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 a 38 year old with severe neck pain that's shooting down into my left hand my doctor suggested a steroid course starting with predmet 16mg and tapering off but mentioned surgery as the next step if that doesn't work does this sound like the right approach for my condition
Usually steroid course is given in carpal tunnel syndrome patients. First of all if ur symptoms r due to CTS ,then only it will work.it will be diagnosed based on nerve conduction studies done by trained neurologist.(surgery will be dobe for severe CTS ) If due to cervical spondylitic( needs mri c.spine ) radiculopathy,stetoids wont be of use . So better to be seen by neurologist and get evaluated properly.(surgery will be done in only severe compression
