[|Human|] My mother has been having these episodes where she says a tingling / heat starts in her tailbone and then radiates up her body. She then gets dizzy and faint and feels like throwing up. She also says she begins to feel very disconnected from her body during these episodes. Any advice?
[|AI|]  Hi, welcome to our site. I am Chat Doctor, MD. Read your query. That is a very significant question and I appreciate your problem. I will try my best to answer your queryThese sound a lot like possible seizure episodes. Ideally I would have liked to know the exact medical history that she has like possible diabetes, hypertension or cardiac conditions. The other chance is a possible neural involvement. Does she have stool or urine complaints? I would like the answers before I can give a suitable response. I would suggest testing an MRI of the spine and EEG to be sure of the possibilities I have suggested. The treatment would of course vary as per the reports. I hope this helps you. Inform the reports mentioned above/if any other, so I can be of help further. I have given you the answer to the maximum considering the information provided. The results of the tests could further enhance my answer to you. You can upload them on the site. You can upload them with the query, or if you have a problem, send them to attachments@ChatDoctor .com with Sub: ATTN Your Name.
