Dear lybrate-user, Insomnia may be an early warning sign of mania or a symptom of depression. If the cause is treated, then you can sleep well. You may not need a separate treatment for insomnia. You are already taking alprax 0.5 mg which also serves as a sedative. There can be other causes for insomnia. Those need to be looked into. Please follow up with your psychiatrist.

Please post list of all your present medicines. Sleep problems are sometimes due to metoprolol. Dry skin increases scratching, reduce use of soap and towel, rub body lotion or cold cream or coconut oil on wet skin after bathing.

You can feel tired due to lack of essential nutrients, not getting enough sleep, a weak immune system, excessive drinking, skipping meals, emotional stress, and too much physical labor. Persistent weakness can be caused by health problems like anemia, arthritis, hypothyroidism, a sleep disorder, cancer, chronic fatigue syndrome, diabetes and heart disease. In these cases, it is very important to find out the exact cause behind your weakness. To feel energetic and refreshed in life, you must exercise daily for at least 30 minutes, maintain your ideal body weight, follow a good diet, sleep properly, drink water throughout the day to keep your body hydrated, avoid alcohol and stop smoking.

Dear Jana, You should ask your doctor rgis question. Or you can ask your family member who took you to the doctor. With the available information, i think that you were going astray probably on weed or alcohol. It might be due to your depression for which Escitalopram is prescribed. May be you had irregular sleeping habits for which a hypnotic Zolpidem 10 prescribed. Probably your family would have thought if you sleep well and feel happy and confident, you may not seek alcohol or weed. Alcohol, weed, zolpidem and escitalopram work on the various neurochemicals in the brain to make you feel happy and confident. Together, the dose may be too much for you, making you croggy, imbalanced, poor reflexes while riding leading you to accidents, dizziness, drowsiness etc. Please remember, it all depends on the dose of alcohol and cannabis - what drink, how much quantity, the duration of drinking, type of food along with it, etc. Better to avoid alcohol and weed and continue to use escitalopram and zolpidem. All the best

My answer to your query is: 1.My mother she is 50 in age and had been diagnosed with thyroid around 2 year back after that she started taking medicine "Thyroxine Sodium Tablet-50 mg" and after few month it was in control but that 1 year back while she was still on thyroid medicine she had started having tremors in her right hand See there are 2 main types of thyroid related problem one is Hypothyroidism where body does not produces thyroid Hormone sufficiently and another is hyperthyroidism where body produces excess of thyroid hormone in the body. You had not mentioned which thyroid problem your mother is facing among these.In thyroid problem level of serum T3, T4 and TSH always monitored and in conventional allopathic treatment accordingly doses are adjusted. Hence monitoring is very important in all thyroid problem. Shaking of hand and tremors may be because of continuous use of above mentioned medicine also. 2. After doing some online research we find that it could be Parkinson and we had went to different doctors from renowned neurologist in Ranchi, Vellore, Patna but they have prescribed the same medicine syndopa and other tablets related to parkinson and for last few months she is under shoulder and neck pain 24 hours and as the pain is unbearable she is forced to take pain killers. I did some googling and found that tremors could be a side effect of thyroid but not sure I am worried that my mothers problems are not been diagnosed properly Please reply if someone have good understanding about these problems and genuinely want to help. This is the drawback of not getting complete information from site such as google. Of course early sign of parkison disease in most of the cases is tremor (that is also a characteristic pill rolling tremor of parkisons disease) but it is also associated with other signs and symptoms such as rigidity in muscles, slow movement of body, balancing problem, speech changes and also most important mask like face. So first confirm it. 3.Start Homeopathic treatment along with conventional medicines for long term effect without any known side effects as we after monitoring condition will stop the dosage in a time span.

Music therapy for epilepsy

The study says in conjunction with traditional treatment, music may be used as a novel intervention to help prevent seizures in people with epilepsy. It's been found significantly higher levels of brain wave activity in participants when they were listening to music and it's synchronised more with the music expecially in the temporal lobe than in people without epilepsy
