unable to focus when reading, foggy and feeling of being disconnect

[Ranger01]

I've been experiencing some odd symptoms over the past few years and they have since gotten worse and now concerning to me.  My vision is constanly bothering me and I have a hard time focusing on words when reading.  In the past I've had spells of blurred vision followed by a lathargic state and then a pounding headache.  This headache sometimes lasted for more than 24 hours.  About 3 years ago, I had an MRI done and all came back clear.  I recently had bloodwork done and thought Diabetes was the case, but all results came back clear except my liver count (elavated AST and ALT).  I'm still going through some tests for the liver, but already had an ultrasound and Hep A,B,C test which were all clear. The blurry vision/foggy feeling has me concerned since I have recently been to the eye doctor and all was good. He simply gave me computer glasses and sent me on my way. The feeling is almost like being intoxicated and being disconnected. When I have conversations with people, it's hard to concentrate on that subject and even hard to remember what was talked about earlier. I'm a 31 year old male (6'1 210lbs) and in relatively decent shape.  I drank alcohol somewhat heavily on the weekends in college, but have 3-6 drinks a weekend at the most now.  

It's gotten to the point that I'm stressing about it and searching the internet for any clues.....If you have the same symptoms and hopefully a suggestion, please let me know. Any help is appreciated.  It seems that doctors have shrugged it off and I'm desperate for answers.

I would be evaluated for a concussion if I were you. If nothing turns up for the concussion then go on and see a head, neck, or back specialist. It could be a pinched nerve.

Did you ever figure out if it was MS? I got sent home from work today for this exact symptom and I'm really worried MS is the cause

Crazy how long people have been posting on this site for with all their symptoms (Which are all connected and very similar to what I've experienced). I was diagnosed with epilepsy at a young age and was prone to the odd migraine after getting my seizures under control. Until last year when I decided it was a good idea to take cannabis which provoked a small seizure, after a long 18 months suffering from depression and anxiety along with many of these symptoms above I am feeling a lot better wthin myself. However, I do still suffer from a number of these symptoms at times - Brain fog, misreading, lack of concentration, saying the wrong words, pains in arms/legs, eye spasms, muscle spasms, ringing in my ears etc etc.  Most of these can vary on a day to day basis but mainly occur when I target to read/write on my laptop which is frustrating being at university student. Glasses have helped and I also use a computer which has glass protector infront which also helps (I'm using that now)

Any advice will be great - I'm kind of bored of my neurologist now because he's put it down to anxiety but I believe it's more than that after the majority of these symptoms developing together around the same time.

I'm not a doctor but i started having these diagnosis when my stress became internalised.

Mine is definately down to eye spasms.

I experience this spasm sensation all over my body when trying to focus on a target.

I think counselling, friends, a more active and healthy lifestyle is your best bet. At least thats what i am going to focus on.

Support a football club, shout and scream your face off every weekend. (i cant be bothered to be honest)

Play video games, shout and scream your face off on the mic. (I'm not that type)

I dont think exercise is enough. You have to become more vocal in general.

But becoming more vocal can lead to depression so careful on that one.

Just finding some way to vent. (god knows how)

Just try to get your problems on the surface where you can deal with them, but not too much. (society and all that)

But neways. At least for people who experience spasms.

This might be of some help.

Either that or die a senile old man/woman.
