M.D. Mehriban Allahverdiyeva Reviews

A 24-year-old female professional e-sports athlete presented with sudden-onset, debilitating migraines and hand tremors that threatened her career. Dr. Allahverdiyeva discovered an unusual combination of excessive caffeine consumption, sleep cycle inversion, and a previously undiagnosed patent foramen ovale. Treatment involved a coordinated plan with a cardiologist for device closure, strict circadian rhythm retraining, and dietary modification. The patient returned to competition after 3 months with no symptoms.

A 78-year-old retired museum curator from a low-income neighborhood arrived with unexplained weight loss and fatigue. His complex presentation included a history of asbestos exposure and rheumatoid arthritis. Dr. Allahverdiyeva identified not malnutrition, but a rare paraneoplastic syndrome secondary to early-stage mesothelioma, caught through meticulous history-taking about his specific curation work. Treatment involved early oncology referral and targeted immunotherapy, leading to stabilized disease and improved quality of life.

A 42-year-old single mother and long-haul truck driver presented with episodic confusion and hypertension. Dr. Allahverdiyeva uncovered a pattern linking her symptoms to specific rest-stop meals, leading to a diagnosis of tyramine-induced hypertensive crisis from undisclosed MAOI use for depression, combined with chronic sleep apnea. Management involved medication adjustment, CPAP initiation, and dietary education, resolving her crises within weeks.

A 19-year-old university exchange student from Central Asia arrived with fever and jaundice. Initial assumptions pointed to viral hepatitis, but Dr. Allahverdiyeva's detailed questioning revealed he had been participating in traditional eagle hunting, leading to a diagnosis of rare brucellosis from unpasteurized dairy consumed during ceremonies. Treatment with specific antibiotics led to full recovery, and his extended family abroad was notified for screening.
