View allMy friend's been having this weird issue with her eyes flickering and randomly shutting for around 30 seconds, and its been going on for over 6 months. She uses reading glasses but her prescription hasn't changed. The neuro psychiatrist we saw prescribed serta, etilaam, and arpizol for 10 days, but it hasn't really made any difference. What do you recommend we do next?

I'm dealing with this twitching on my left index finger that started a couple of days ago. It's just that one finger and it only lasts a few minutes, but it keeps happening. I'm kind of worried about what could be causing it and wondering if it's something serious. Is there a way to sort this out on my own, or do I need to see a doctor? Any insights would be really helpful.
The twitching in your left index finger could be due to minor causes such as fatigue, caffeine or nicotine consumption, nutrient deficiencies (magnesium, potassium, or calcium), or temporary nerve irritation, but in rare cases, it could be an early sign of a neurological condition like benign fasciculation syndrome, peripheral neuropathy, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

I've been noticing that I only feel dizzy when I sneeze, and it's something that's happened several times in the past. But today, it got really bothersome because after a sneeze, I actually lost my balance and fell down. Is there any medicine or solution that could help with this?
This sounds like a case of vasovagal syncope, where sneezing triggers a sudden drop in heart rate and blood pressure, leading to dizziness and fainting. Medication such as Fludrocortisone can help increase blood volume and reduce the likelihood of fainting episodes triggered by sneezing. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication.
