General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

From your description I am of the opinion that due to hypertension, acute infarct occurred in the left side of the brain, other changes are age-related.

Even I. MRI spine indicates slipped disc, degeneration of vertebra at D12 level. Other changes are age-related. Your prescription is good and caters to all aspects.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Ashish Ranjan, General & Family Physician
