How does a seizure feel?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Depends on the type of seizure. Some seizures may alter emotions or change the way things look, smell, feel, taste or sound, but you don't lose consciousness.

View allI'm really concerned about my mom. She's been feeling this odd sensation and burning in her left leg, specifically between the knee and thigh. I was doing some reading online and it seems really similar to something called Meralgia Paraesthetica. This all started after she had laparoscopic surgery for gallbladder stones back in October 2016. It's not always there, but when it does show up, it seems to be happening more often now. I'm really hoping for some advice on how we could help her feel better. Should we be seeing a certain type of doctor for this?
The symptoms your mother describes could indeed align with **Meralgia Paresthetica**, which occurs due to compression of the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve. I recommend consulting a **neurologist** for a detailed evaluation. In the meantime, measures like avoiding tight clothing, maintaining a healthy weight, and physical therapy may help alleviate symptoms.

I'm having this weird needle-like sensation in the back of my head that started today. Everything else feels pretty normal though, and the pricking isn't happening all the time. Any idea what could be causing this?
It sounds like youre experiencing occasional nerve-related sensations, which can sometimes happen due to stress, posture, or minor nerve irritations. Since everything else is normal, its likely not serious, but if it persists or worsens, please consider seeing a doctor for evaluation.

I'm experiencing this strange internal vibration or buzzing sensation throughout my body, especially in my legs. It really becomes noticeable when I'm sitting or lying down almost like an electric current running through me. I've been on PPIs like ranitidine, rabeprazole, and omeprazole recently, though I only took the first two for a day each and omeprazole for four days. They also prescribed gabapentin, but I haven't tried it yet because I'm worried about the side effects. It's been weeks now, and while I initially thought this was all due to some acidity or acid reflux, what scares me more is my muscle mass seems to be disappearing. I can press or pull my muscles too easily, and sometimes I feel weak or numb and even have trouble breathing while reading or studying. What's going on with me?
you may have vitamin B12 deficiency.
