Temporary paralysis

[Shruti1220]

my daughter who is now 5 years old experienced paralysis after getting into a jacuzzi and getting scared by the water level which came upto her neck.  This paralysis attack lasted for few hours after which she was ok.  Thereafter, she got a series of such attacks and everytime there was an anxiety that triggered it (when she was injected a medicine, taken for blood tests).  This lasted about 3 weeks during which she got 6 of such attacks which would last anywhere between 1/2 hour to 24 hours.  Her recovery would happen in an instant.  Nothing conclusive came out of her tests (thyroid, cholesterol, phosphate cardiac echo, MRI all were normal).  We were supposed to get EEG, CPK, Serum lactate and B12 tests done for her but decided to wait for sometime since she would get an attack everytime she got a blood test.  It has now been over 2 months since she's had her last paralytic attack.  However, i noticed a grey hair on her which i know wasn't there earlier.  I know Vit B12 can cause greying and it can also cause paralysis.  Please advice...

That makes sense I would think all the tests would make her feel bad, so glad she is doing better ,let us know how she goes on ..

As per the Doc, i shouldn't worry about one grey hair... we haven't got her tested for vit B12 since this was one of the last tests prescribed by the Doc and since she would get an attack everytime we took her for a test, the Doc recommended that we let it be since her attacks had stopped

If you have been told or done research on B12 and greying also paralysis it may be good to ask advice from the doctor giving the treatment and also get a 2nd opinion .Are you asking should she continue having B12 treatments ?
