I'm not sure what's going on, but I've been having these weird internal vibrations, mostly in my legs. It's almost like there's electricity running through them. I took PPIs for about 46 days, but they didn't help at all. I'm also noticing my muscle mass is just wasting away; my legs, chest, stomach, hands, everything feels soft and kinda loose. I can literally pull at the skin. Besides the vibrations, I'm dealing with weakness, some vision loss, numbness, and difficulty breathing, especially when I'm reading or working. With the lockdowns happening, it's been tough to get help. Can you please help me figure out what this might be and suggest any medications or treatments?

Possible Causes:
- Vitamin deficiencies: Lack of vitamins like B12, magnesium, or potassium can cause muscle weakness, numbness, and internal vibrations.
- Neurological issues: Conditions like peripheral neuropathy, multiple sclerosis, or Parkinson's disease can cause muscle weakness, numbness, and vibrations.
- Hormonal imbalances: Thyroid disorders, adrenal insufficiency, or hormonal changes can cause muscle weakness, fatigue, and other symptoms.
- Medication side effects: Certain medications, such as those used to treat depression, anxiety, or high blood pressure, can cause muscle weakness, numbness, and vibrations.
General Advice:
-
Consult a doctor: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician or a specialist (e.g., neurologist, endocrinologist) to discuss your symptoms.
-
Blood tests: Get blood tests to check for vitamin deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, and other potential underlying conditions.
-
Neurological examination: A doctor may perform a neurological examination to assess your muscle strength, reflexes, and sensation.
-
Medication review: Inform your doctor about any medications you're taking, as they may be contributing to your symptoms.

Got a severe headache and my CT scan showed a 32mm calcified granuloma in the left frontal lobe. How serious is this and do I need surgery for it?
A calcified granuloma, especially if it's 32mm in size and in the frontal lobe, is generally not life-threatening, but it's crucial to understand the potential implications and get a proper medical evaluation. Calcified granulomas are usually benign and do not require treatment unless they are causing symptoms or are a sign of an underlying condition. Surgery is usually not necessary for a calcified granuloma itself
