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 really worried because I've been dealing with pudendal neuralgia symptoms for the past four years, and recently after getting my wisdom teeth removed on the right side, my lingual nerve seems irritated. I have this burning feeling and some numbness on the right side of my tongue. Is there any effective treatment for this? I've also noticed that taking methylcobalamin makes my pudendal nerve issues worse. Do you have any advice or suggestions?

I'm feeling these hard pulses all over my body, like in my head, hands, and legs, and I'm also dealing with constant shaking and body vibrations. My vitamin B12 is low at 150, but my ECG came back normal. This has been going on for years. My blood pressure is normal, and my pulse rate is about 80, though it goes up with exercise or activity. I know I'm overweight and have a lot of anxiety. Should I be worried about these hard pulses? I tend to overthink and often find myself spiraling after looking things up on the internet. What do you think could be causing this?
