Sorry to know about your father. You mentioned ct guided fnac showed metastasis. From the information you have provided it looks like it is a case of lung cancer with brain and bone metastases. I would suggest you consult a oncologist for further guidance.

It may not be possible to regenerate brain cells but the movement disabilities and sleep can be improved with help of homoeopathic treatment and physiotherapy.
You can consult me at Lybrate for homoeopathic treatment.

Optic nerve glioma needs either surgery or radiotherapy or both. Needs thorough clinical assessment.

Hello
it is unfortunate that your brother had to undergo repeated surgeries, but from the information you have given it appears that he has been treated properly as per the standard guidelines for these kind of tumors. Now I guess it is grade 4 not 4th stage of the tumor and grading not staging is used for these kind of brain tumor. Treatment now is difficult and depends on the neurological and general condition of the patient, findings on mri scan like location and extent of the tumor and ...more

Don't go for unprotected sex go for protected sex that will be better atleast you can go for it after 2 weeks.

Filariasis is a parasitic disease that is transmitted through the bites of infected mosquitoes. It is not a sexually transmitted disease, and sexual contact with a person who has filariasis is not a direct cause of transmission.
However, it is important to note that filariasis is a communicable disease, which means that it can be transmitted from one person to another through the bites of infected mosquitoes. So if your husband has filariasis, it's important for both of you to take measures ...more

What is farsightedness (hyperopia)?

Farsightedness (hyperopia), sometimes referred to as long-sightedness, is a vision problem where the eye is unable to properly focus close objects on the retina. This condition can occur naturally, but it can also be acquired due to ageing, increased axial length of the eyes, or damage to the lens or cornea.

आजकल की भागदौड़ भरी ज़िंदगी में स्वास्थय पर ध्यान दे पाना मुश्किल होता जा रहा है । कम समय में ज़्यादा काम पूरा करने की होड़ में हम सम्पूर्ण पौष्टिक आहार लेने के बजाय फ़ास्ट फ़ूड और झटपट बनने वाले स्नैक्स से काम चला लेते हैं। ऐसे में हीमोग्लोबिन की कमी एक आम समस्या बनती जा रही है। खासकर महिलाओं में हीमोग्लोबिन की कमी होना सामान्य बात हो गयी है। पर हीमोग्लोबिन की कमी के चलते शारीरिक रूप से आपको कई दिक्कतें आ सकती है। जैसे लगातार थकान महसूस होना, कमज़ोरी आना, चिड़चिड़ापन , पीरियड्स में तेज़ दर्द होना आदि। ऐ...more

Hello lybrate-user, filariasis has got nothing to do with what you eat. If you are positive for filariasis infection you can effectively treat it with medicine. If you already got lymphedema associated with filariasis disease, then it can't be cured. Please get proper medical help.

As your father have filariasis on both legs for 15 years and sciatica -recently --i recommend a check-up by a good medical consultant first. Then you may have to go to neurologist / ortho doctor/ podiatrist-- as per his findings --all such doctors are available in good medical colleges and terciary care hospitals.

Kindly take healthy diet. Like milk or dairy products and green vegetable, beetroot, carrot juice.

Inj Flora I'd once in a week for four weeks. Like wise for every once in 6 months. Wear langoti regularly

Filariasis spreads thr mosquitoes. So kindly make mosquito proof nets protection for doors; windows etc .use mosquito repellents and mosquito nets. Take the filaria suspected person to a health centre; do check-up and give treatment-if needed. Do cleaning of your neighbourhood and avoid open water collections and solid waste collections in your area. Give health education to community on filariasis control.
