I have a long history of neuro type issues. Undx'd at the time. I have prior dx of FMS. The specialist says the new sx's are not due to FMS and it may be secondary.
Born a preemie (3 months early). Breathing issues all my life since birth. Rag doll type legs from birth thru childhood. Coordination issues all my life. Nose bleeds growing up. Gray hair began at about age 15 (small amount). Did not participate in sports/phys ed when I could get out of it. Problems walking, didnt do so until about age 2. Strabismus as child. Treated with operation.
Begining age 19 began to have discoloration of knees with swelling. Dx'd with Juvenille Rheum. Arhtritis in knees. Not to sure of that dx.
Mid 20s, began having nuero sx's. Leg go numb in heat while driving. Could not hold brake pedal at red lights. First MRI 1 lesion. Went to neuro, no answers. Rheumie said FMS and possibly Mild MS.
Since many neuro issues including Nystagmus, Strabismus, clonus, hyperextending knees, hyperreflexes, gait/balance issues, temporary paraylsis (when I get hot sleeping), waking w/ breathing issues when hot, numbness w/ severe hypersensitivity at times, inability to bend/unbend an arm/leg when I get hot while sleeping, muscle cramps in legs/arms, hearing problems, SVT, MVP, choking on liquids and foods at times, some speach problems at times, Livedo Reticulitis, Telangectasia (sp?), etc. and no answers.
Last MRI showed 2 lesions, EEG shows several abnormalties, LP no bands, high lymphs and low monos. Having EMG for ? of MG. Now I wonder is this could be Ataxia Telangectasia (sp?).
Any suggestions?
