Hello, my Mother in law (70 years) is suffering from misbalancing and in-coordination of feet movement which has severely worsened during last 3 years. All the pathology test appears are normal. The sensory test is also normal. There is an uncontrolled trembling that occurs frequently. Now, this symptom is gradually being observed in the upper limbs also. Progressive myelopathy with no medication available has been diagnosed by a Neurologist. What are the options available for the treatment?

Bracing, physical therapy and medication are treatments for mild myelopathy and mainly reduce pain, allowing you to return to your daily activities. Nonsurgical treatment does not remove the compression. Spinal decompression surgery is a generally preferred treatment for myelopathy to relieve pressure on the spinal cord. A surgery can also be used to remove bone spurs or herniated discs if they are the cause of myelopathy. For advanced myelopathy caused by stenosis, a surgical procedure to increase the channel space of your spinal cord (laminoplasty) recommended. Consult a spinal surgeon - Spinal Surgery doctors in Mumbai, you can also search for a different city.

Can an HIV patient go through a Bone Marrow transplant?

Hello,

  • Assuming you're HIV positive with cancer, and in need of Bone Marrow Transplant: we will first have to check your reports. We will have to see the diagnosis, medical reports, medical history, etc, to see whether a Bone Marrow Transplant would be necessary or not. There are ways to control HIV like increasing the CD34 count. Apart from this there are also other ways but only after that can you be considered a transplant.
     
  • Now, Considering you are seeking cure for HIV through Bone marrow transplant (BMT):
  1. There have only been two successful cases where HIV was cured with Bone marrow transplant and in both cases the patients had cancer with BMT as a last resort treatment. In case of both cases the patients were suffering from life-threatening advanced stage cancer. The first such case occurred in Berlin, where an American Patient named Timothy Brown had myeloid leukemia and was also HIV positive. He was in the advanced stage of this blood cancer and the doctors had decided to do a Bone marrow transplant and also attempt to clear the HIV simultaneously. Since HIV patients can only get an allogeneic transplant, they had searched for a donor with a rare genetic mutation of the CCR5 gene for both the Berlin patient to make them HIV-resistant. After that the Berlin patient took regular bantiretroviral drugs that suppress HIV and has been virus-free ever since.
  2. The second successful case was in London, where the patient with Hodgkin's lymphoma and HIV virus was also in the advanced stage of cancer as the doctors decided attempted a stem cell transplant for their cancer and simultaneously attempt to clear HIV. And similarly they searched a stem cell donor with a rare genetic mutation of the CCR5 gene for the patient to make them HIV-resistant. The London patient stopped taking the medication 18 months ago and there is no sign of a return of HIV.
     
  • They are not likely to do BMT just to cure HIV. But if you are a cancer patient you should consult a hemato-oncologist for added information. Our page could help you find experts, refer it - Medical Hematology - Oncologists in Mumbai. Let us know if your city is different, I hope our answer helps

I am suffering from Lumbar Radiculopathy. For the past 1 year, I am suffering from back pain and I have taken medicines, physiotherapy but can't get relief in pain. Please help.

Hello, Lumbar Radicular symptoms include pain which radiates into the lower extremity (thigh, calf, and occasionally the foot) directly along the course of a specific spinal nerve root. The most common symptom of radicular pain is sciatica (pain that radiates along the sciatic nerve - down the back of the thigh and calf into the foot).

Treatment:

  1. In the initial stage, the doctor suggests a nonsurgical treatment (such as physical therapy, medications) which often gets improve within 6 weeks to 3 months.
  2. Since in your case the nonsurgical treatment does not alleviate the pain, decompressive surgeries such as laminectomy and/or discectomy/microdiscectomy. These surgeries typically provides relief of radicular pain for 85% to 90% of patients.

We suggest you to consult a nearby Orthopedic and only after a physical examination, the complete treatment can be provided by the doctors. I hope this answers your query. Find our page which will help you look for doctors - Orthopedic Doctor in India.

Hi, I need urgent treatment for vestibular migraine. Please guide me with its treatment.

Hello,

  • There's no specific medication for vestibular migraines. Your doctor will prescribe different drugs to stop an attack when it happens, same is called abortive therapy:
  1. Triptans: this medicine is taken at the first sign of headache symptoms.
  2. Vestibular suppressant: It can ease your dizziness and motion sensitivity. This type of drug works on the balance center in your inner ear. Your doctor might prescribe benzodiazepines like lorazepam (Ativan), anti-nausea drugs like promethazine (Phenergan),
  3. Antihistamines: like meclizine.
     
  • If you have frequent or disabling vestibular migraines, your doctor may try drugs similar to traditional migraine prevention meds. These include:
  1. seizure medicines,
  2. blood pressure medicines (like beta blockers and calcium channel blockers),
  3. and some antidepressants.
     
  • CGRP inhibitors: are a new class of preventive medicine that your doctor may recommend if other medicines don't help.
     

We suggest you consult a doctor regarding migraine treatment, before going for any medicines, as they prescribe you the medicine according to your health condition, and our page might help with that - General Physicians in India. Hope this answers your query.
