4 years ago I started having what feels like a wave or jolt in my head.A lot like the person who posted here about feeling like on a roller coaster only in her head. At first it happened so rarely that I was not concerned, over time it started to become more frequent and over the last year it has been very frequent, at one point being everyday, many times a day for 39 days straight. I had a 24 hour EEG and of course I had no "episodes" MRI is normal except for C6-C7 bulge in disc and right across from it is what one doctor told me was arthritis. It pushes in on my spinal column from both sides. I was diagnosed with Partial complex seizures as when I have a lot of them I become confused, lose my balance, and babble incoherrently.
I had an episode of right eye visual disturbences that lasted from 9/17/04 to mid Dec.
Also my heart will skip a beat. (I know this because I had him listen when it was doing this.) This can last over an hour.
Sometimes people will ask why I am limping but I am unaware of it. (they usually ask when I am having brain things)
I have extreme fatigue and my legs and arms get weak and muscles will tighten after doing very little but I feel as if I have just climbed up several flights of stairs.
MS specialist said 99.9% sure not MS, it is emotional, psych's say it's medical
I see a new neuro on Tuesday, what should I ask as far as test to do? I would like to have evoked potentials, spinal tap, TSH, copper, B12 levels checked and also my ANA levels were high. Would this neuro be insulted if I asked for these? Do you have any sugestions?
Thanks,
Lau
