crainial muscle weakness
by need help bad, Jan 15, 2006 12:00AM
I have been experiencing the most troubling symptoms of my life for 8 months now, 24 hours a day every day. The muscles of my head that raise the eyebrows have felt like they are very weak. Not really "tense", just weak, almost a partial paralysis by my own description. However I am still able to move my eyebrows up and down, through the full range of motion. I feel this weakness/pressure/tension (whatever you want to call it) extenting to the tip-top of my head on the top/back, and to a lesser extent to the sides of my head and even a little bit into my eyelid movements. Along with this, I have a constant, boring, dull, moderate, pressure type headache all the time, as well as nearly constant nausea. Putting pressure on the sides of my head with the palms of my hands makes it feel better for a few seconds.
Doctor said the MRI and MRA of my brain and neck... and blood tests rules out any major problems and I should take anti-depression medicine (i am not depressed!). Please help me find out what to do because this is seriously effecting my life. I've seen a neurologist/headache specialist at the Jacksonville Mayo clinic and another neuro in Orlando about this....so it's not like I have an inadequate doctor.
I am 29/white/male and gained 40 pounds for no known reason since this began. exercise (especially weight lifting) makes me feel better during, but much worse for the rest of the day afterwards but I don't know if this is just because I allready feelbad. PLEAASE help me, I am starting despair
PS-I have also had continuious "nystagmus" when laying horizontal
