Can you have a pons stroke in the same place as a previous one 8 months prior ? And/or can you have a pons stroke about a week after having a mini stroke? My eyes, my balance , my vision feels the same. Except the first one made my lazy eye went all wonky and stayed pointing to the right outwards.

Hello doctors..........now I am 31 years old and at the age of 4 years, I have got a head injury(at occipital lobe)in the back side and from then I suffered with Migrain with aura(intense headache and visual disturbance) and Alice in Wonderland syndrome (AIWS with smaller size appearance of objects).....At the early age, I can't recognise these names properly but now I know about that confirmly......but At present time my main problem is related with visual disturbance.....for it I have done many types of check ups of my eyes....but there is no issue in eyes......because it is related from brain function, so my question is how to correct it now at the age of 31 years and solve my eyes problem related with brain function now, please advise and suggest a clear view about it, 🙏
Dear Dr. Lee, I was diagnosed with Horner sometime between 2010 and 2014 and with Acquired idiopathic generalised anhidrosis (AIGA) in 2015. I tried steroids and isotretinoin but only with a small and temporary success, so at the end no success. Do you have any suggestions for treatment? Thanks in advance.
Technically, it can be possible to see vitreous floaters in your field of view with your eyes closed in certain circumstances, such as if I'm lying down on a beach in Florida and the sun is shining overhead. This will allow enough light to seep through the thin layers of my eyelids so that I can still see floaters casting a shadow on my retina. My optometrist was able to see the bilateral floaters inside my eyes using a special lens, so I know they are not cortical. Thankfully, a lot of them seem to have sunk over time or something, as I don't see as many floaters dashing across my field of view as I move my eyes as I used to. They used to be very bothersome.
It's NOT inverted within the context of your head. There are no tiny gravity sensors in your retina denoting what is up and down. There is no up and down. It's just this mostly dark, mush place where an image is projected. It's only when we, from the outside of a person, ask what it would look like if we could see inside and what's projected. But it's because we are inverted with respect to the image, not the other way around. The neurons are wired to where each part of the image falls. Things that are above you cast light in a particular part of the retina, so that's where they get wired. The ground casts light in other parts of the retina, so that's where neurons for things being down. It's not like your brain has a retina pre-wired where the part near the top of your head is wired to be up, and part near the bottom of your head is wired to be down, and then it gets an image with things the opposite way.
So does this encephalitis come and go? I have episodic confusion and disorientation- Negative EEG, Hashimoto’s, negative mri, and mildly elevated TPO antibodies. I’ve been searching for answers for 10 years.
Hey can you explain the sequence of visual field defects in glaucoma....i am confused about whether the earliest changes occur outside the 30° visual field or if it's the paracentral or Seidel scotoma that occurs earlier
Excellent video as always, just one problem I cant understand, here you are discussing skew in otolith disease and in HINTS test video you say that peripheral vestibular system doesn't cause skew. How so then?
Sometimes I get the "bright lights" every now and again. But to be fair, I would get those right before a major migraine headache. So it makes me a little nervous when it happens a little too often.
Is this the same as a smooth mustle positive test ? I had these diagnosed years ago but have not been treated ? I had super clavical lymph node removed as a child ? Im currently suffering with back ache and weakness . Any ideas ?
I am a 73 year old male in Western Australia. I have had General MG for about 3 months. I am pretty sure I contracted MG from a series of illness including Covid, a bad urinary tract infection, blood poisoning, strong pain-killing injections to my injured back, and shingles....all one after the other. These aliments must have sent my immune system into hyperdrive! Note that stress is a major trigger. Being around good and supportive people is a major antidote. Tapering up makes much more sense than tapering down. I started on 180m of Mestinon, 15000 mg of Celcept and 50mg of Prednisolone (steriod). It knocked me around. No weight gain thankfully, but a lot of memory fog. After 8 weeks I have tapered up to 1500mg of Celcept and down to 30mg of Prednisolone. Mestinon remains the same. It's knocking me around more. MG is no better. Lower back pain is getting worse. Memory remains bad. Doctors tell you little about the medication at the hospital because most know nothing about MG even in the Neurology Dept. The seniors who do know about MG are usually too busy. General practitioners you have to educate yourself in order to get the right scripts. Your health is too important to leave to doctors alone. Watch as many YT vids as you can so you can have more control over your own health. See what medications make MG worse. My GP has already made two errors about this. Also, if you are feeling really done it's supportive to know you are not alone. Remember, many poor people have MG worse than you, especially young girls who want to have children or women who may, say, have 32 young kids to care for, or a father who can no longer support his family.
My name is David Olsen. Thank you very much for your talk on eye problems. I have Parkinson’s since 2017 but I since I was a kid, I’ve always had bad hand, bad hand eye coordination when I read I have to move my head left right or up and down my eyes, don’t move by themselves when I was young. I had 2020 vision, but I couldn’t read. It was frustrating cause I finish line one instead of my eyes wouldn’t jump down to line too, I would start rereading line one again so I would get fed up and not read now it’s getting a little worse because of my Parkinson’s I’ve been to a nuclear ophthalmologist. Is there anything else I can do? Thank you so much for your video it’s helped me a lot I lookforward to your answer thank you very much for your video. Thank you so much.
Thank you very much for your video. It was very informative for myself. I was diagnosed in 2017 with Parkinson’s oh and I forgot to tell you my name is David Olsen and I have high movement left to right up and down in order to read. I must move my head my eyes don’t move left to right or up and down makes it very difficult to read and I move my head. It’s not so bad but reading is a challenge. Lately I’ve been getting headaches too. I went to a nuclear ophthalmologist and he did a brain scan. I also had a blood test for I can’t pronounce it. I can’t pronounce. Myra Gravis and it was negative, but my problem is it still ongoing so I don’t know what to do. I have. I have bifocals which I just found out. I shouldn’t be having I have distance glasses and reading glasses I hope😢.❤😢❤💪
From the BCSC 2019-20: "Absence of spontaneous venous pulsations may reflect increased ICP, but absence at initial examination is of limited value; 20% of the general population have no spontaneous venous pulsations. The disappearance of these pulsations after prior documented presence, however, suggests ICP elevation."
