Hello Dr. Park,
I have been a part of the MS forum for a while now, and still undiagnosed. I have had major vision issues for over a year now, and doctors can't seem to find an issue. My MRI came out with small lesions, then I had another done with contrast, and the second nero said that there wasn't actually anything there... and told me it was somatoform disorder. My question is, my husband claims that I am horrible to sleep with. I snore constantly, loudly, and am kicking him many times throughout the night. .. causing briusing lol I have just recently in September had braces put on, and have a huge overbite. after my braces come off in about 18 months, they are advising I go for jaw surgery to have my bottom jaw moved forward. Do you think this will help with my sleeping patterns? I am up many times in a night, I am currently on Cymbalta, which made me feel like a zombie for the first week, now it doesnt do anything... I was on Trazadone for a year, and that helped with the getting up at night, but did not help with the moving around and kicking... Do you have any suggestions. ? I am at my wits end with these symptoms, I believe the diagnosis of somatoform is a cop out... and that is not the real issue here. I have weakness in my left side, I have a hard time seeing, I don't sleep well, my husband is getting ready to move me to the couch! :) any suggestions would be helpful... Questions to ask my doctor? Maybe a new med I should try? I dunno... I need answers... Thank you. Shari
