Just starting the second leg of my journy. I have been seeing a Neurolgist for the past yr. Sept of 07 I experience a muscle twing (Elvis lip) on the right side of my face. With in about 30 to 45 min this contraction/twing had moved to the left side (impossible to duplicate). Within the hour my entire face was contracting to the point that my speach was extremly slurred and I couldn't open my eyes, this contracting continued down my body. I thought I was having a stroke.... went to the emergency room and long story short the "episodes" continue. I was admitted to the ICU and spent 9 days there. The first Neuro said it was "emotional". I was reviewed by Physc... That doctor said there was no way possible I could be doing this to myself and that I had a diffenate physical issue not Physc.... Enter new Neuro he has been great.... have been on 2 anti-seizure meds and 9 different vitimans for the past year. It took over 3 months for me to be able to walk without assistance, 6 months to drive (still only short distance) and 11 months to feel as though I can handle my day to day life while still experiencing some symptoms. Enter second leg.... my Thyroid numbers are way out of wack TSH 11.102 and Antihyroglobulin 1118. I get fatigued easlily, and often have extrem lower back pain. Could this be the underling cause????? In addition to that my GFR is abnormal.....
I have had my TT, radical Hyster for PCOS and I am on hormones.
