My wife has been dealing with TB Meningitis for the last two years. She completed the TB medication course, but she's still struggling with a lot of neural and back pain. An MRI showed signs of myelitis and some changes in her spinal cord, which has us really concerned. The doctors say that while the TB bacteria is gone, the damage might be beyond repair and her chances of recovery are slim at best. They've recommended physiotherapy and visiting pain management centers for her current pain. For about a year and a half, shes been on Gabapin 300 and Gabantip AT. Can you suggest any pain management centers, or maybe share your thoughts on any potential for recovery?

I've been having full body tingling, muscle spasms, and neck and back pain that radiates. I'm currently taking neugaba 150 and dulot 30 but get really bad sweating and anxiety if I miss a dose. Should I see a surgeon or stick with medication management for this? Worried about being dependent on these meds long-term.

Apollo is best for it.

I'm having headaches almost every day, and they only seem to go away after I take a dart tablet. Sometimes I also get this burning feeling in my eyes. Should I be worried about these symptoms, and is there anything else I can do to help with the headaches and eye discomfort?

If you are experiencing blurring of vision along with this burning sensation in your eyes, it may be suggestive of a refractive error in your eyes. If you are a spectacle user, it may be time to change your spectacles. Otherwise you may be having migraine attacks. A proper evaluation is necessary to warrant the cause and appropriate a line of treatment.

My grandfather was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease about 8 years ago, but now the doctors are saying he has progressive supranuclear palsy. He's been on Syndopa, but it seems to be making things worse for him. He used to take Ropark, and that was working well. Should we consider going back to Ropark instead?

kindly consult your physician if any side-effects of medicine
