Question 1

I've been experiencing some unusual sensations and I'm a bit concerned. Lately, I've noticed a persistent vibration throughout my body, but it seems like I'm the only one who can feel it. Additionally, there's this burning feeling in my legs that's quite uncomfortable. And on top of that, there's a tightness in the skin on both my legs and arms. It's a strange mix of symptoms, and I'm not sure what's causing them or what I should do next. Could you help shed some light on this?

Accepted Answer

Could be peripheral neuropathy, difficult to ascertain without proper examination and history taking. For the symptoms you have described, you can consider taking Neurobion Forte tablets, along with Shelcal HD tablets. These medications can help with nerve health and overall well-being.

Question 2

I'm dealing with a burning sensation all over my body and it feels like nerve pain, with pins and needles, and sometimes it feels like a heat wave inside. I've also got nerve pain in my jaw. I've been told I might have Complex Regional Pain Syndrome by one doctor in NZ, and a neurologist mentioned Central Pain Syndrome. I'm really concerned and a bit confused about these diagnoses. Could you explain what they mean and how they differ? Also, what can I do to manage or reduce these symptoms?

Accepted Answer

Approximately 80% of patients with CRPS type I achieve complete, spontaneous relief of signs and symptoms within 18 months; however, no diagnostic criteria have been shown to predict which patients will fall into this category. Some of the patients whose symptoms do not resolve spontaneously may still be cured by treatment.
Of the patients who develop refractory CRPS type I, 50-80% have disability secondary to pain andor a limited range of motion. The main disabilities are limitations in their activities of daily living (ADL).

Question 3

I've been having some serious concerns about my health. I experienced seizures three times within just 15 minutes, which was pretty terrifying. I lost consciousness and then stopped breathing for a bit. Thankfully, I was rushed to the hospital, and I came to after around 10 hours. I had a CT and MRI scan done, and the doctors said it's a calcified granuloma. I'm really anxious about how long I need to stay on medication. Is this thing entirely curable, or is it something I should be worried about in terms of being life-threatening? And, even while on the meds, is there a chance I might have seizures again?

Accepted Answer

Based on your diagnosis of calcified granuloma, which is typically a benign condition, the duration of medication depends on your doctor's guidance, but usually, anticonvulsants are prescribed for 1-2 years after a seizure; while the condition is generally not life-threatening, it's crucial to adhere to your medication regimen to minimize the risk of future seizures, which is estimated to be around 20-30% even with treatment, so regular follow-ups with your neurologist are essential to monitor your condition and adjust your treatment plan as needed.

I'm experiencing dizziness whenever I sit in one place for around 10 minutes or so. When I stand up, my head starts spinning, but it goes away after a little while. I recently had my blood pressure checked and it was normal. Can you help me understand why this is happening?
