Hi can you please help.
Constant symptoms: For 3 years now without end I feel like I have a metal plate attached to my forehead under the skin..feels very rigid and stiff muscles. Sometimes my chewing muscles feel weak. In the same area I have this constant flood of pressure. Behind my nose, I feel pressure like I'm standing on my head and my turbinates are severely swolen but no sinus infection. I also have this perpetual state of light dizziness that's aggrivated when I move my eyes around. IF I LAY ON MY STOMACH, (put pressure on lower chest/upper abdomen or bend backwards the pressure in head increases severly!
Occasional symptoms: A tingling in my lumbar spine/penis area, passing burning/expanding pains in wrists or ankles (these occasional symptoms I could live with by themselves)
Here's the blood test I have 2 years ago: ana, apcr, at, anti dna, esr, ft4, factor viii, alt, bili total, ast, albumin, alk phos, protein, bili indirect, bili direct, hgba1c, lupus, lyme, pt20210m, protein c and s, sjogrens, tsh, b12.
Other tests: MRI, MRA, MRV (brain). MRI c-spine w/o. Opthamologic exam.
"All tests normal except MRI shows cerebral tonsils at the level of forum magnum."
My doctors have refused further tests. Is there any blood tests that should be repeated, or any other tests..anything AT ALL no matter how remote that hasn't been looked at?
I have no insurance and can't get a real-world 2nd opinion, please please help! Any ideas at all?
Doc, I have nightmares I am literally giving up hope you have to help me before I die from this head pressure
