Question

I'm 84 and I've been experiencing some discomfort on the right side of the back of my head. It feels like there's a noise or something going on inside. I already did a scan and it came back with Diffuse Cerebral Atrophy. I'm currently in Baharampur, W.B. and I'm just not sure what steps I should take next. Could you please advise me on what I should do?

Question

I've completely lost the sense of taste in my mouth and tongue. No matter what I eat, I can't feel any flavors or even temperatures, like hotness or coldness. It's really concerning and uncomfortable. Do you have any advice or home remedies that might help with this?

Question

I'm currently taking valprol CR300 twice a day and I'm 59 years old, weighing about 70kgs. I just got my blood tests back and my triglyceride levels are at 260. I'm wondering if this could be because of the medication? What other side effects should I be aware of? Is it safe for me to stop taking this medicine? I've had two epilepsy attacks, one in August 2014 and another in March 2015. Any advice would be appreciated.

Question

I'm really worried because he's been dealing with this for about 20 years now. Sometimes it's manageable, but then it just flares up again. Stugeron used to help keep things under control, but over the past month, he's been taking it three times a day along with 12 tablets of Dytol 5mg daily. He's also been using Stemetil, but this time it seems like nothing's working. We're at a bit of a loss here. Do you have any advice on what we should do next? Can we possibly arrange a visit to discuss this further?
