I'm experiencing this weird falling sensation while walking, and it's been going on for about three years now. Along with this, I feel severe anxiety, panic, and stomach discomfort, and I often get dizzy and a bit giddy. Sometimes it even feels like someone is pushing my head forward. It's really gotten to the point where I'm scared to go anywhere because of how uncomfortable all of this is. Can anyone help me figure out what's going on and how I can get rid of these feelings?

I'm really worried because my grandfather just had a major paralysis stroke affecting the right side of his body. Is there a chance for him to recover from this? Any advice or insights would be really helpful.

The chances of recovery from a major paralysis stroke on the right side, also known as hemiparesis, depend on the severity of the stroke, the location and extent of brain damage, and the timeliness and effectiveness of medical treatment; with prompt and intensive rehabilitation, including physical, occupational, and speech therapy, some patients can achieve significant improvement, but the degree of recovery varies widely, and it's essential to consult a neurologist or rehabilitation specialist to assess your grandfather's individual prognosis and develop a personalized treatment plan.

I've been having full body tingling, muscle spasms, and neck and back pain that radiates. I'm currently taking neugaba 150 and dulot 30 but get really bad sweating and anxiety if I miss a dose. Should I see a surgeon or stick with medication management for this? Worried about being dependent on these meds long-term.

Apollo is best for it.
