Question: Sir My brother is having some unusual things like he feels a current flowing through his body, his head aches not very severely.. Could it be a symptom of seizure or fits? He says his eye power has also changed now distant objects are blurred to his eyes. Could this headache be because of the decreasing eye power?

Hello,
Thanks for the query.

The symptom of feeling of current flowing through the body does not appear to be seizure. However, it needs to be evaluated and underlying cause is likely to be neurological.

The causes can be things like problems in spinal cord, nerve roots etc. As for eye power, detailed check up by an ophthalmologist should reveal the cause.

The headache may be due to decreasing eye power but it is more likely to be due to the sinusitis, as he is also having prolonged cough, sneezing and he is allergy prone.

Hope this answers your query. If you have more questions, I will be happy to answer.
Good luck.
