My Answers

Can neuropathy cause my feet to itch
Yes. It can. Also pins and needles, loss of feeling and burning are all common READ MORE
its about my little brother
Tics are a common occurrence in children. They typically go away with age. They can be a part of Tourettes Syndrome, and are accompanied by making noises, grunts or sounds or words. But tics alone are the most common situation. If they are frequent or distressing to the individual, there are medications to treat them. An EEG is appropriate in order to make sure the movements arent seizures, in which case a different kind of medication is used to treat them. They are not associated with any adult illnesses like Parkinsons or Alzheimers.And they are only occasionally seen in multiple family members. A doctor might ask as part of a complete history about whether there are any neurological problems in the family, but only to be thorough in their evaluation, not necessarily to imply a relationship between the two disorders.

Recent head complications
The findings on the scan are unlikely to be causing any of the symptoms. Your symptoms, if they are all occurring together, and are episodic, are likely migraines. READ MORE
When I will get CT scan results for the brain?
If your facility has MyChart, it will appear as soon as the radiologist reads and interprets it: in most places the next day, two at the most. The result will appear in MyChart. READ MORE
Headache
I dont have enough information to make a suggestion READ MORE
Dead/numb limbs
Since the MRI is the most sensitive test for MS and it was normal. the only other 2 possibilities are migraines or mini strokes. Migraines can have an aura or a warning of neurological symptoms before the headache starts. And on occasion, sometimes these occur without the headache. READ MORE
Head injury as a child
For a head injury with a brief loss of consciousness, such as you describe, and no neurological symptoms at any time over the next several weeks, we would not expect any type of long term physical or psychological effects. READ MORE
Continuous Headache
It sounds like a prolonged migraine. Migraines often run in families, typically a pounding sensation with nausea, light and noise sensitivity.6 They typically are severe and incapacitating. They can be treated in a number of ways, and if they recur often there are medications used to prevent them. Typically people go than urgent care since usually it requires a shot to get relief. READ MORE
Ask about my case
All the symptoms may not be from one problem. The acne, for instance, may not be related to the other problems. If you have not been to a Neurologist, or had an MRI of the head and neck, you should do so. The combination of numbness, fatigue and trouble thinking suggests a brain or cervical spine problem, of which there are numerous causes. An MRI and laboratory tests may well give you an answer. READ MORE
TIA-like experience
Your symptoms sound more like migraines than a TIA. Typically TIA results in a loss of function: paralysis, blindness, loss of feeling. Your episode sounds like the extra sensations that can occur with migraines: warm sensations, ringing in the ears and skin tingling. Migraines dont always occur with a headache. You can have neurological symptoms followed by headache, headache alone, or the neurological symptoms without any headache. Thats not to say you should ignore the episode. You need to at least notify your doctor about it. READ MORE
What is the most effective treatment for autism?
As an adult neurologist I have very limited experience with the treatment of Autism. Im sorry. READ MORE
Can I take Celexa for anxiety while taking lamictal for seizures
In rare instances celexa can increase the likelihood of seizures. But there is no specific interaction between the two drugs. So yes the two drugs can be used together. READ MORE
TIA-like experience
If you have only been on the stimulant 4 days and the event occurred during that time, the medication is the most likely culprit. Your symptoms do not sound like a TIA. If you have had migraines, or if you headache after or with the symptoms, then that would be a possibility. READ MORE
Neurological problem?
I cant help without more information than severe enough for a bloo ctrtlong scream. Like where it is, what physical problems it has caused. You say when out Started bui dont tell what that is. READ MORE
What Does Single Flare Hyperintensities Mean?
Can you please send the entire report. That would allow me to give you a better response READ MORE
Hydrocephalus
He needs regular follow up with the neurosurgeon with Cat Scans of the head and they should review with you the symptoms to watch for. Shunt failure is usually not sudden but may require an ER evaluation. It is treated with a temporary shunt or a replacement of the existing shunt. READ MORE
Headaches
The Clivus is a part of the skull. A sclerotic lesion is usually a benign area in the bone and not a malignancy. READ MORE
Mri brain test results help please
The report, unfortunately, that came with your question, only has some introductory information: that is that the findings were compared to a previous MRI has done in 2021. If you could send the wording of the impression, That would help me answeryour question. READ MORE
MRI report explained in layman's terms
No report came with the question. I’d be glad to explain it, if you are able to get the results. READ MORE
Prominent vascular loop.
Vascular loops are merely sharp turns in an artery. By themselves they are not a risk, just a turn of the artery that otherwise would be straight. They are a problem if the artery presses against a nerve or a part of the brain. Typically this of a nerve. It can then cause pain or an asleep feeling.Depending on the situation, symptoms are usually managed with medication first. READ MORE
