What Causes Painful Swelling In Leg Accompanied With Arm Numbness?

Current medications are correct.
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for posting your query.
I have noted your symptoms and diagnostic test reports.
I agree with your doctor's treatment approach.
Main problem is migraine, for which topamac (topiramate) is a good drug to reduce the frequency and severity of headaches. Betacap TR (propranolol) is also for the same purpose.
In the MRA, mild blockage of blood supply (atherosclerosis) has been found, for which aspirin and rosuvastatin have been advised.
The leg swelling and pain may or may not be related to migraine. Discuss with your physician about it.
I hope my reply has helped you.
I would be pleased to answer, if you have any follow up queries or if you require any further information.

There is no steroid in your prescription.
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for getting back.
There are no steroids in your prescription.
In your case, the medicines may not be needed for long time. Your symptoms and abnormalities are minor, so, treatment may be stopped in 1-2 years.
Best wishes,
Dr Sudhir Kumar MD DM (Neurology)
