Unusual Symptoms

A friends husband is exibiting the following symptoms. They came on quite suddenly. He will not go to a doctor. I was thinking drug use, but not with him stashing money. Normally, money would be unaccounted for. Does anybody have any ideas?

"Sudden onset of severe sweating, muscle spasms, thinking he lost 45 pounds when has gained at least 15 pounds, hiding money and paranoia about it, hiding the money in multiple places (100 here, 300 there, 80 here) change in mood, excessive talking, loss of some short term memory, hyperactivity in certain social  situations, exaustion, back pain, headaches, knots and pain in base of skull, chronic sinus problems, compulsive sexual internet activity,lack of sexual interest with long term partner, selfish behavior at times and overly caring during others, lying, change in demeanor during times of stress, senstive to light. unable to reason, anxiety, excessive need to fit in with peers even at cost of family.
history of dimentia diagnosed late in father who is now in 80's, mother died of stomach cancer in early 40's,

sounds like hes on drugs to me, just because hes stashing money doesnt mean hes not on drugs, friends share drugs and dont usually charge there buddies to get high with them. if hes acting that nuts but he wont go to the doc thats all i cant hink of, he knows awhats wrong , hes a drug addict, sounds like meth to be, i used to do that **** and when you get strung out real good you get like that. online you can get these home drug tests (my mom used it on me when i was a teenager and finally caught me that way) there just like wet wipe looking things, you either wipe up some of there sweat right off of them of wipe someting theve hadled alot and then you can test it, it will show if they have been using meth. ill try to find the product for you and post another reply . good luck, sounds like regardless of whats wrong someone needs to get that guy into a doctor or a treatment center asap!

I would advise him to get the physical symptoms checked out immediately if he will go to the Drs. There could be many reasons why hes behaving this way and why his physical symptoms are there. Physical problems, mental health issues, or drugs maybe any of the underlying factors. I would think that any physical cause needs investigating first its so easy to jump to the conclusion that its drugs . I wish your freind good luck it must be a distressing time for her. XX Chris
