I'm really worried about my mom. She's been diagnosed with paralysis, and she can't speak at all. Does this mean it's entirely due to paralysis? What should we do next?

View allI've been experiencing some trouble with balancing while walking over the past few days, and it feels like my head is spinning, especially when I wake up in the morning. It's a bit less noticeable as the day goes on, but it's still there. Any ideas on what could be causing this?

I've been feeling unsteady while walking for the past 3 years, so I got a CT scan that showed dehiscence of the lateral semicircular canal. I had ear surgery, but the surgeon said there was no dehiscence only an infection, which they cleared during the procedure. My unsteadiness hasn't improved, and I'm really confused was the CT scan wrong or did the surgeon miss something? Who should I see next to figure this out? It's been so long without any answers, and I'm really worried this might be something serious with no solution

I've been dealing with ocular myasthenia gravis since November 2016. I had a blood report and a CT scan in 2017, which were normal, but then another CT scan in 2018 showed some infection. A chest specialist suggested doing a FOB, and when I asked about how my ocular myasthenia could affect the FOB check-up, the doctor mentioned there's no connection. When I asked about possible infection in the thymus gland according to the CT scan, the doctor said there wasn't one. They mentioned these infections could be pneumonia and might be linked to the prednisolone tablets I'm taking, but these infections weren't there before. Can you guide me on if this is the right approach? An ophthalmologist gave me a Botox injection in my right upper eyelid in January 2017 without doing the ice pack test, Musk test, or diagnosing myasthenia gravis. What role does an FOB play in handling ocular myasthenia gravis?
