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 dealing with some ongoing symptoms like forehead pressure, left nose to jaw pressure, and left eye heaviness. My ENT doctor did a CT scan and found a deviated nasal septum, suggesting surgery might help. But then a neurologist prescribed amixide h tablets, which give me relief while I'm taking them the symptoms come back when I stop. I'm really confused could this be a septum issue or maybe something nerve-related? Would love to hear your thoughts on what might be going on.

Your symptoms may be nerve-related if meds help—consider neuro-ENT or imaging re-evaluation.

I've been dealing with this weird tingling pain in my fingers and arms on both hands for the last 3.5 months now. It all started out of nowhere after I had some saline in my left arm. On top of that, my stomach constantly feels bloated, and I'm having these strange palpitations in my stomach and throat area. It's really starting to worry me. Any idea what might be going on or what I could try to feel better?

The symptoms you are experiencing, such as tingling pain in fingers and arms, bloating, palpitations, and sensations in the stomach and throat, could be related to nerve issues or underlying medical conditions. It is important to consult a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis. However, to alleviate the symptoms, you can try taking Vitamin B complex supplements like Neurobion Forte once a day for nerve health. Additionally, you can take Omeprazole (brand name Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast to help with bloating and stomach discomfort. Make sure to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

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
