Doctor 1

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

It is 30 point questionnaire to assess the cognition level of a person. It includes assessment of orientation to time (5 points), orientation to place (5 points), registration (3 points), attention and calculation (5 points), recall (3 points), language (2 points), repetition (1 point) and complex commands (6 points). Any score of 24 or above indicates normal cognition. Below this, scores can indicate severe (≤9 points), moderate (10–18 points) or mild (19–23 points) cognitive impairment.

I'm experiencing this intense headache that seems to start from the back on the left side of my head, but it only happens during orgasm. There's no lingering effect afterward, and everything else like my diet and sleep is normal. It's kind of worrying me, and I'm curious about what might be causing this. Any idea what could be going on?

It sounds like the headache could be related to a tension or vascular response triggered during orgasm. While it's not uncommon for certain activities to cause temporary discomfort, if this continues, I recommend consulting with a doctor to rule out any underlying neurological issues. In the meantime, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with proper sleep, hydration, and stress management is important.

My dad had a stroke and the doctors found an infarction in his brain. Now they're recommending surgery is this really necessary or are there other options we should consider first?

It's understandable to be concerned about your dad's health and the recommended surgery. Not all stroke treatments require surgery, and other options should be considered first. Surgery is usually reserved for specific situations, especially those related to bleeding or severe blockages in the brain.

I'm really worried about my husband. He's 33 and has been experiencing chest pain for the past three months, as well as dizziness, like he's about to fall down. He also has upper back pain. We've done full cardiac tests, checked sugar levels, blood pressure, urine tests, and even had an endoscopy, but everything came back normal. Despite that, he's still not feeling well. Every morning he wakes up dizzy and feels sleepy all the time. We've already seen cardiac and gastro specialists, but we still can't figure out what's wrong. Could you please advise which kind of doctor we should see next?
