Greetings Sir, any cure for seizure, My niece is 4 years.

HBOT for seizures: Seizure drugs don't heal seizures; they only mollify it.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy -hbot heals seizures by creating more blood vessels in secure foci and generates new neurones while other drugs do not. We have said it several times and still stand by what we say. HBOT may run for up to 3 years (once or twice a year ) before a final stop. Non-hbot patients may continue taking their treatment for life or until something happens.
Most of the seizure problems will start in babies who had hypoxia at birth, or jaundice, or trauma etc. Many of them needed to have continued with hbot but for lack of knowledge nobody tells them.
Do your research and come back.
We are HBOT Providers.

Oga nawa o, ECG showed cardiomegaly and you didn't shake body to ask doctor what a swollen heart means and detrimental it is to be living this life with a heart getting hypertrophied. Have you been managing your blood pressure? How is it? Do you drink alcohol or use hard drugs?
Go and do that ECG again and this time confirm the dimension. A swelling heart is a compensating heart. The heart is trying to keep you alive and so by time gets bigger until it can't do any more work. You just be appearing fine, no more symptoms than just the pain but this is one reason people just slump and die even without a warning.
Do not allow the heart to compensate any further. Your symptoms may just be slight claudication and this warning shouldn't be overlooked on your side. Please seek a doctor's help quickly as soon as you read this.
Let me know when you have done the ECG, I will send you for further diagnosis depending on the result confirmation.
Bro,
I have don the ECG test and the result are given below:
Sinus rhythm
Normal QRs axis
No atrial enlargement
Left ventricular hypertrophy
No significant ST segment changes
No blocks seen
No QTv prolongation
Conclusion: borderline left ventricular hypertrophy otherwise .
Sir, please wat can u deduce from this result as i am so scared right now.

So you mean is normal since I only notice it when I pass faeces and for the shaking hands what is the way out for that?
It is normal. It will be less disturbing with less attention given to it.
As for your hand tremor, I would advise you have an appointment with a physical doctor to know what could be responsible for it and in addition give you proper advice as to what to do or stay away from to reduce the hand shaking.

Thanks

Although I cant really figure out what could be the cause of back pain other than the fact that I sit a lot, travel a lot, sleep with stomach facing my mattress. Also, I wear shoe a lot and I hardly wear slippers or sandal(although I only use Google to find out if wearing shoe can cause back pain). While I still have back pain, I do carry some medium sized object all alone(especially my generating set but weigh around 30kg) although not to long distance but I don't know if that could contribute to why am having back pain.

As regard the body lightness, I perceive it got better today & reduced which I hope it becomes better before my next appointment

Above all, I will keep you updated about the outcome of my meeting with doctor on Thursday

Thanks so much sir
Okay.

Apart from a left ventricular hypertrophy every other thing is okay. Common cause to a left ventricular hypertrophy is due to increase pressure load on that compartment of the heart from long stayed not well managed systemic high blood pressure. Other causes are not likely as ECG didn't give alterations that would have pointed several cardiac related pathognomonic conditions.
So, what's your blood pressure?

At least you have improve in a fraction. Since you have already started treatment it would be okay to go along with it to see if there will be a gradual end to your increase stooling frequency. All the best.

way to go, just ensure that you explain everything to doctor from start to finish. General hospital will be your best bet based on my experience with some specialist hospital(those that treat specific ailment), it's difficult to get solution to ones problem as quick as it should. If at all you gonna use private hospital, ensure it's standard hospital so you can get the right medical hand.

2days ago during my visit to doctor, he only asked me to continu taking stemetil he gave me 10days as 5mg per day. the problem was that my body is not 100% agile like it used to be before the whole thing started. I cant go to work now because I feel tired and lack energy to work. If I try to wash my cloth, the moment am done with just 1 shirt I will be tired and feel like to rest. Doctor asked me to come back after a month despite that stemetil he gave me will last till 4days time. is there any test I can do to detect why I still have feeling of tiredness? doctor said I had malaria 2weeks ago but I stopped treatment after 2days when it makes me weaker then I took 2 IV exactly 2weeks ago. please what can I do to restore my health to perfect state within shortest time? before I took the injection & drugs, I wasnt this tired. please I need your suggestion.

NOTE: I have done RBS, FBS, FBC/CBC, Hepatitis B/C, HIV & result shows that am not positive

Thanks
Finally, just write out for me all the medications you have used so far. And the ones you are using presently, place a mark on them.

Kindly agree with me if you have these symptoms in addition to your unexplained tiredness.
1) Drowsiness
2) Dryness of the mouth
3) increase gain in weight
4) increase urine frequency
5) blurriness

Good days docs. It's been long I came in here, please I have a problem. How do I manage reflux in my 7 weeks old baby? I feed him in bits and burp him but before the belch comes out the milk comes out. I've tried sitting him upright in a position for long also but it doesn't seem to work. Please what else do I do? It's getting to my nerves. Thanks

How is your baby doing?
Assuming this is coming in time, you may:

1) Carefully keep a relax spirit about this issue. This will give you room to study the feeding habit you are imposing on the baby and the kind of change you will need to address to shift this issue shift to annul. A relax spirit will ward off the immediacy to act quickly and experiment hurtful negotiations that are not necessary to try.

2) Know that some reflux are normal in most infants and may reduce with time.Normal burping procedures and normal feeding process should be in the doing and not changed. You may need to:
a) avoid shaking the baby's head and body after every feeding.
b) avoid feeding the baby too frequently.
c) avoid feeding the baby just too immediately after a reflux. Learn to allow some minutes or an hour before before refeeding.
d) feed baby with little quantity of water after some reflexes. This shouldn't be all the time, but giving him little quantity after a reflux could help in replacing thirst and body dryness. Watch out for urination. Then give feeding a trial.
e) stop feeding baby for a long time if possible.
f) study how comfortable your baby is to know when to give feeding. This will predict to suggest whether a long feeding or short feeding is necessary:
i) after any medication
ii) a temperature change
iii) a sudden fall
iv) after a sleep.

3) Does any change comes with this reflux? For example, do you observe that he hardly passes faeces? Hardly sleeps? Passes scanty urine? Passes watery faeces? Hardly cries or cry too often? changes in movement in the eyes and eyeballs? Color of urine and faeces and the impression on the waste pads? Change in breathing?

4) Seek the help of a Pediatrician if possible to know what is the most available help you can get in the present practice to such presenting case.

5) Kindly let other experience mothers be known of your present dilenma, they may have one good input to shift in that will either reduce or stop the degree of the refluxing or even change your mental state on how you see this challenge.

How are you doing? Is there any improvement?
However, those symptoms are merely attach to the muscle relaxant in combination to the pain reliever you used. It will certainly stop if my assumption is right.

You may let me know the two drugs you had before now to the ibuprofen.

Thank you so much doctor

I don't really know the names of some of drugs used in the past because it's counted inside hospital drug envelope.

I've used 3 different pain relieve drugs based on doctors recommendation between the month of September, October, November, I didn't use the forth one beyond a day(tramadol + anorol used on 13th of this month) when it nearly killed me the first day of treatment but I had blurred vision, feeling like throwing up, a kind of seized breath which lasted for about 3minutes that night. I took 2 drip at the hospital and about 3 antibiotic passed to my body system via IV but I don't know the name of these medication.

The medication given to me at the hospital where they said i had malaria consist of 7 drugs but I know of bco, carmosunate but the rest 5 I don't know their names. I started the medication on 14th but stopped on 16th when the injection makes me weak & doctor is not ready to listen to my pleas on how the injection makes me becomes weaker. Before I start taking the injection, my body is strong than this but ever since I started taking the injection I become weak although it has improved than then but I don't have up to 70% energy out of 100% I used to have.

Presently I use stemetil given to me by doctor to be taken 1 tablet per day, aside that I don't use anything even blood tonic I don't take it because doctor never recommend it

1. I don't feel drowsy but I do feel like to just be at state of rest. Simple task and I will feel tired and need to rest.

2. No dry mouth

3. No weight gain so far

4. No increase in urine frequency

5. No blurriness

Let me quickly add that this January, I had a feeling like something seized/hook in my left chest and lasted for 3 days although it reduced each day. I lodge same complaint to doctor but he said it's nothing.

I'm sorry if I type too long

God bless
