I'm really worried about my 66-year-old mom. She has epilepsy and she's been having this shortness of breath like asthma, along with a bad cough and cold. I was wondering if she could take deriphyllin along with ascoril expectorant syrup? Just want to make sure it's safe for her.

So, I've been noticing something strange happening with my left hand. My middle finger has been twitching randomly, and sometimes I feel a little shiver in the whole hand. Also, there's this weird muscle twitching near my elbow. It's mainly the middle finger that's bothering me the most, and it's got me a bit worried. I'm wondering what might be causing all this and who I should see about it. Could it be something serious?

My mom has been feeling a burning sensation all over her body, especially on her back, legs, stomach, and face. I'm concerned because there aren't any rashes or signs of an allergy. Should I take her to a dermatologist or a neurologist?

-It sounds like your mom's symptoms could be related to nerve irritation or other underlying issues, so it's a good idea to start with a neurologist. They can help diagnose if it's related to nerve conditions like neuropathy or other neurological concerns
