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.

View allI'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?
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).

I'm really worried because my mom started taking Martifur, just like her doctor said, but now she's experiencing a pretty bad burning sensation and her legs, along with the rest of her body, feel shaky and weak. Is this something we should be concerned about, or is it a normal side effect?
The severe burning sensation, shaky and weak legs, and body weakness your mother is experiencing while taking Martifur (a urinary tract antiseptic) are not typical side effects

I'm trying to figure out what NVD means in relation to a nerve problem with my right hand. I've had some tests done like EEG, EMG, and MRI of my neck and brain, and everything seems fine. The doctor suggested NVD, but I'm not sure if it's a test or a type of therapy. They've also prescribed me Clonotril 0.25 mg, Felicity OD, and Meaxon Plus injection. Could you help me understand what NVD stands for and what it involves?
