Are tinnitus and a perception of a foul odor related to a neurological issue?
Hello doctor,
I was sent to see an ENT (ear, nose, and throat specialist) due to hearing a whistling-like sound that others do not hear, along with a gross odor and vomiting. I also have other symptoms such as difficulty walking, pain, insomnia, depression, and a lack of desire to go anywhere.
Please help.
Thank you.

How to ease the symptoms of multiple sclerosis?
Hello doctor,
I wanted to ask you about my colleague's daughter who is only 37 years old and is diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. It is been tough on her, especially dealing with spasticity. She is in a lot of pain and has trouble holding onto things, even doing simple tasks. I am not very familiar with multiple sclerosis. What exactly is it, and what are the symptoms she might experience? And how does spasticity fit into all of this? I can only imagine how difficult it must be for her and her family. Is there anything we can do to help ease her symptoms or support her through this tough time? Please advise.
Thank you.

What evidence supports the tapeworm-migraine link?
Hello doctor,
I have been experiencing frequent migraines lately, and I am concerned about a potential link between tapeworm infestations and neurological symptoms. Can tapeworms in the brain trigger migraines? Furthermore, does consuming foods like bacon, which might contain tapeworm larvae, increase the risk of migraines and other neurological complications related to tapeworms?
Kindly help.
Thank you.
