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'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

I've been experiencing these strange vibrations in the back left side of my head for the past few months. They only last about 5 to 10 seconds, but it's really starting to worry me. Could this be something serious? Should I be concerned?
The sudden, intermittent vibrations in the left side back of your head, lasting 5-10 seconds, could be related to various factors, including muscle spasms, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) issues, ear problems, or even anxiety; however, to rule out any underlying conditions, such as multiple sclerosis, vestibular disorders, or neurological issues, consult a healthcare professional, preferably a neurologist or an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist, for a thorough evaluation and proper diagnosi
