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?

I've noticed that every time I try to stand on one leg with my eyes closed, I lose my balance. Should I be worried about a nervous disorder? Everything's fine when both legs are on the ground or if I have my eyes open standing on one leg. Plus, I'm having a tough time concentrating and remembering things, like names of old friends and terms from books, which started about a year ago. Could these be related?

Post-Dengue Elevated Liver Enzymes _Common phenomenon_: Elevated liver enzymes, especially SGPT (ALT), are common after dengue fever. _Possible causes_: 1. _Liver inflammation_: Dengue virus can cause liver inflammation, leading to elevated liver enzymes. 2. _Hepatocyte injury_: The virus can damage liver cells, causing enzyme leaks. _SGPT level of 168 UL_: 1. _Mildly elevated_: This level is mildly elevated, but it's essential to monitor it to ensure it returns to normal. _SGOT level of 40 UL_: 1. _Within normal range_: This level is within the normal range (0-40 UL). _Recommendations_: 1. _Monitor liver enzymes_: Regularly check your liver enzymes to ensure they return to normal. 2. _Follow-up with your doctor_: Schedule a follow-up appointment with your doctor to monitor your liver health. 3. _Maintain a healthy lifestyle_: Engage in regular exercise, eat a balanced diet, and avoid alcohol to support liver health. _No specific treatment_: Usually, no specific treatment is required for elevated liver enzymes post-dengue. However, your doctor may recommend liver function tests to monitor your liver health.

I've been feeling really off lately. My head gets super heavy whenever I start talking, though it's weird because it doesn't actually hurt. Sometimes my hands start shaking, and I've been feeling pretty dizzy too. During conversations, my mind just goes completely blank for a bit, which is really worrying. There's also a bit of neck pain happening. I've been on some tablets for about 20 days now, but I'm not seeing any improvements. I've had an MRI, EEG, and my thyroid levels checked, but everything came back normal. What could be going on here? Would love to hear your thoughts.

Your symptoms of heavy head, hand tremors, giddiness, mind blankness, and neck pain, despite normal MRI, EEG, and thyroid reports, may indicate anxiety, stress, or a neurological condition such as essential tremor, dystonia, or a conversion disorder; consider consulting a neurologist

My wife's been experiencing this weird thing where her eyes feel like they're rotating. We went to a general physician who said it's due to low blood pressure and suggested some Ceylon, but she's still occasionally feeling the rotation once a day. I'm really worried, and I'm not sure what steps we should take next. Any advice on what could be causing this or what we should do?
