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 feeling dizzychakkar when I wake up these past couple of days. It happened to me a few years ago too, but it eventually went away on its own without any medication. I'm a bit worried now because I felt okay waking up yesterday, but the dizziness has lingered all day. Im curious to know what type of doctor I should see for this. Any ideas?
