I've been dealing with some really annoying symptoms lately. Just a day ago, I had this crazy high fever of 103.6 and it came with loose motions. The fever went down after a day of rest and taking just 2 crocins. But now, a day later, something odd is happeningI can't seem to remember names or strings of characters that I used to know. I initially shrugged it off, thinking I was overthinking it, but it's been a constant thing throughout the day. Is this normal? Can you help me understand what's going on here?

In most cases, memory issues after a high fever and loose motions are temporary and are often related to post-viral fatigue, dehydration, or the body recovering from the stress of illness. However, if the symptoms persist, worsen, or are accompanied by other concerning signs, its important to consult a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying causes. In the meantime, staying hydrated, getting proper rest, and maintaining a balanced diet will help support your recovery.

I've been experiencing this weird numbness in my body while I'm sleeping at night, and it's making me really restless. I'm just wondering what might be causing it? Are there any specific tests I should consider to figure out whats going on?

The probable causes of teeth grinding or bruxism during sleep are: 1. *Stress and anxiety*: Tension can lead to teeth grinding. 2. *Misaligned teeth or bite*: Dental issues can cause teeth to grind. 3. *Sleep disorders*: Sleep apnea, insomnia, or restless leg syndrome. 4. *Habits*: Caffeine, nicotine, or alcohol consumption before bedtime. 5. *Medical conditions*: Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Consult a dentist or a healthcare professional to rule out underlying conditions and explore possible treatments.
