I'm 84 and I've been experiencing some discomfort on the right side of the back of my head. It feels like there's a noise or something going on inside. I already did a scan and it came back with Diffuse Cerebral Atrophy. I'm currently in Baharampur, W.B. and I'm just not sure what steps I should take next. Could you please advise me on what I should do?

I've had a seizure in December and another one just recently, both times while I was sleeping around 5:15 in the morning. I had an MRI and it came back fine, but my blood work showed elevated liver enzymes and a higher white blood cell count. Should I be worried about these results, and is there a chance they're related to the seizures? What should my next steps be?

I'm having some trouble with my legs and feet at night. They start hurting, and my feet get warm, usually lasting an hour or two. I end up having to put cold water on my feet a couple of times to get some sleep. By morning, they still feel numb. I'm worried this might be something serious. Do you think I should see a specialist, and if so, what kind?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms related to nerve compression or poor circulation, such as in conditions like peripheral neuropathy or restless leg syndrome. I recommend visiting a **neurologist** or a **vascular specialist** to get a thorough evaluation and proper diagnosis. It's important to address these symptoms to prevent any potential worsening of the condition.
