I've been feeling really weird lately with this cold sensation inside the left side of my head. It's almost like there's cold liquid in there, and it's giving me a tingling feeling in my face. It's strange, right? I've also noticed that I get really sleepy when this happens, and sometimes I experience these intense hot flashes. Is there something I should be worried about? What could this possibly be?

You may be experiencing symptoms of a migraine headache. The cold feeling inside your head, tingling in your face, and hot flashes are common symptoms of migraines. To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try taking Sumatriptan (brand name: Imitrex). Additionally, you can take Acetaminophen (brand name: Tylenol) at a dosage of 500-1000mg for pain relief. Make sure to rest in a quiet, dark room and stay hydrated. If these symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm not sure what's going on, but I've been feeling really dizzy whenever I'm sitting, standing, or even talking to someone. It's making it tough to do simple things. Plus, I can't seem to look at anything that rotates without feeling worse. I got a brain CT scan done, but it came back normal, and the meds I've tried, like Vertistar, Sturgeon, and Gravol, aren't doing anything for me. Im still struggling. Can you help me figure out what's happening?

Conversion Disorder in Adults

Conversion disorder, also known as Functional Neurological Disorder (FND), is a complex mental health condition characterized by neurological symptoms that medical or neurological conditions cannot explain. These symptoms can include paralysis, tremors, or non-epileptic seizures, and they often arise in response to psychological stress or trauma. Unlike other neurological disorders, conversion disorder does not have a clear organic cause, making it a unique intersection between mental and physical health.
