I've been dealing with a neurofibroma NF1 for the past 7 years and it's been quite tough. I've consulted several doctors and they all keep saying that surgery is the only option. I'm really considering going through with facial surgery now, but I'm anxious about it. Are there really no other treatments or recent developments that might help before I decide to go under the knife?

Its likely that your headaches are triggered by factors related to stress, posture, environmental changes, or sleep deprivation associated with your travel and work schedule. Making some simple adjustments to your hydration, posture, stress management, and sleep can help alleviate these headaches.

I'm a bit worried because my left pinky finger keeps twitching. It started about a week ago, and while there's no pain, it bothers me when I'm working on the computer. After doing some research, I read that twitching of the left pinky finger was one of the symptoms linked to Parkinson's, specifically mentioned with Michael J. Fox. Should I be concerned about Parkinson's, or could it be something else?
In your case, since there is no pain or other issues, it may be related to repetitive strain from working on the computer. I recommend trying to take breaks and stretch your fingers regularly. Additionally, you can take a muscle relaxant like Flexeril (cyclobenzaprine) 5mg at night to help with the twitching. If the twitching persists or worsens, it would be best to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.
