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

I'm really concerned about this intense burning sensation my dad is experiencing throughout his entire body. It seems to get worse at night, to the point where he finds it unbearable. He's already taking medication for a prostate issue, high cholesterol, and a sleep aid, plus blood pressure medicine. We've found out his calcium, potassium, and sodium levels are really low. Could these low levels be causing the burning sensation, or is it related to his other health conditions? I'm really worried and looking for some advice on what might be going on.

I have this weird sensation of water in my head and constant tightness, along with sensory OCD. I've tried every type of medication SSRIs, SNRIs, tricyclics, even antipsychotics but nothing has helped. Is there anything else I can try, like surgery or electric therapy? And is this condition even curable?

Water sensation and OCD with med failure may benefit from advanced options like Deep Brain Stimulation or rTMS—consult neurologist or neuropsychiatrist.
