Horner syndrome
Your autonomic nervous system is the part of your nervous system that controls involuntary actions, such as the beating of your heart and the widening or narrowing of your blood vessels. When something goes wrong in this system, it can cause serious problems, including Blood pressure problems Heart problems Trouble with breathing and swallowing Erectile dysfunction in menAutonomic nervous system disorders can occur alone or as the result of another disease, such as Parkinson's disease, alcoholism and diabetes. Problems can affect either part of the system, as in complex regional pain syndromes, or all of the system. Some types are temporary, but many worsen over time. When they affect your breathing or heart function, these disorders can be life-threatening.Some autonomic nervous system disorders get better when an underlying disease is treated. Often, however, there is no cure. In that case, the goal of treatment is to improve symptoms. NIH: National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke

M.27yrs. Pain & swelling left ankle & foot 5 months
Dr. Syam Sundar Patro0 Like6 Answers A 33-year-old male has a history of tubercular meningitis and had brain surgery in Dubai. An implant (don't know the detail) was placed in the brain 7 years back. Post surgery he came to India and was put on steroids and anti-tubercular drugs which he stopped taking 1 year back. He is still not able to walk properly after these many years. But goes for 15-20 minutes' walk 2-3 times a day. He also complaints of left hand swelling with pain and right knee pain often (for 1-2 days in a week), which gets relieved with pain killers to some extent. He is a well-educated intellectual person, sometimes he forgets things which happened 1 hour or a day ago and has Slutter speech. He doesn't remember any details about the time of surgery and was in coma for many days. I don't have much detail about the case, I might arrange if you have any doubt. MRI at the point is not possible as he can't tolerate long MRI scan. What do you think about this case and its prognosis doctors?
