I'm really worried about my brother. He had his first seizure about 6 years ago and it turned out to be a small non-cancerous tumor in his brain. They operated on him back then and hes been on medication ever since. We were told the meds would stop any future seizures, but hes had three in the last year. The first two happened because he accidentally missed his meds, but the third one is a mystery because hes been following his medication routine perfectly. I'm trying to understand what else could be causing these seizures. Could you help me figure out all the possible reasons why this is happening?

Drinking cold water can exacerbate gastric problems, as it can cause stomach contractions and worsen digestive issues. Warm water is generally easier to digest and may help alleviate symptoms. However, if you prefer cold water, consider room temperature water or add a slice of ginger or lemon to aid digestion. Consult a gastroenterologist for personalized advice.

I've been getting these sudden headaches every afternoon around 5pm for the past week. They're kind of strange since they happen at the same time every day, but I don't feel dizzy when they hit. Do you think there's something I should be worried about or any idea why this might be happening?

It sounds like you might be experiencing a pattern of headaches, which could be triggered by factors like stress, dehydration, or even your daily routine. It's worth noting if certain habits or triggers correlate with the timing, and consulting with your doctor could help pinpoint the cause for proper treatment.
