Epilepsy
Epilepsy is a brain disorder that causes people to have recurring seizures. The seizures happen when clusters of nerve cells, or neurons, in the brain send out the wrong signals. People may have strange sensations and emotions or behave strangely. They may have violent muscle spasms or lose consciousness.Epilepsy has many possible causes, including illness, brain injury, and abnormal brain development. In many cases, the cause is unknown.Doctors use brain scans and other tests to diagnose epilepsy. It is important to start treatment right away. There is no cure for epilepsy, but medicines can control seizures for most people. When medicines are not working well, surgery or implanted devices such as vagus nerve stimulators may help. Special diets can help some children with epilepsy.NIH: National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke

I was the first health care beneficiary to get vaccinated probably in the country at 10.30.A.M on 16 th January- on the day of launch of the Covid-19 vaccination drive in the country. Post vaccination- I had mild heaviness for the left arm and mild chill? which lasted for a day .There after I was normal I didn't take any medicine .I got covishield. I want to convey to my curofy friends- come forward and get vaccinated. Don't believe rumours To my surprise, our health care workers are reluctant to get vaccinated.
