Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
I have noted your wife's symptoms and they are not suggestive of any significant brain disease. Normal CT scan is also a good news. If she wants to be fully sure, an MRI of brain can be done, which would exclude even a minor brain disease.
More importantly, she needs an evaluation by psychiatrist/psychologist for her symptoms. A thyroid profile, vitamin B12 and D level, may be checked in blood, if not already done.
Best wishes,

Thx much Dr. Kumar for the informative feedback.
I have just uploaded and also emailed ([email protected]) my wife's recent blood work for your consideration.
Can you please comment on it?
Thx much in advance.
Steve
Thank you for getting back.
I have seen the reports and they are within normal limits. Calcium is slightly low, and she may take calcium supplements.

My mother, who is 88 years old patientold, has ongoing headaches. She has been to ER 2 times in the last few months, and had CT scans of the head. The only thing it showed was Atrophy. And it was normal.
She is taking Narco for headache, and Zofran for nausea, as she also has that.
Her blood results are within the normal limits. She has high blood pressure, but she takes medicine for that.
Several months ago she stayed in the hospital for few days as she had ongoig nausea.
The Abdominal CT scan showed inflamed Gallbladder.
But, no stones.
Can Gallbladder cause the headache?
Hello,
This consult is over a month old, and also this is a completely new consult as the initial query was concering your wife. So, this consult has been closed.
You will need to initiate a new consult if you want the neurologist to reply.
Regards.
