Hello, my name is Robin Ragnarsson from Sweden. I wanted to share my story with you and i hope you don't mind.
For a couple of years ago (4-5) i started having strange symptoms. It started during night when i was waking up with numbness back of my head. I also started experience sleeparalysis/mild sound hallucinations during some nights as well. When i woke up i felt pretty groggy but not the usual tiredness during mornings.
The time went on and i still cuntinue to had this problem and while to time went on parts of my body fell asleep much easier than before...
For 2 years ago i started to wake up during night felt i couldnt breathe. When this happend my body started to vibrate for a week. I also felt very ill when this happend.
Half year later summer 2013 i started to have other symtoms, started with pain in the hands, twitching in my leg that spread quick everywhere, spasm, cramp ( a bit later ).
I also noticed that my feet got smaller during the years but thought it could have with aging to do.
2014 autumn i started having mild back pain and hard to have the back straight.
Other symptom that i started to have was a cold constant feeling through my body, cold/warm burning sensations, memory problems, problem with focus etc...
Now i know i am experiencing true atrophy through my body and weakness has really started. can barely stand on one leg anymore, small muscle on my feet are fading away quick now.
The common doctors feels to dismissive and have problem getting appointment with a Neurolog. I have sent my own and hope it will be accepted.
Before all symptoms started i know i was bitten by a tick and got a rash, ignored it becuase of bad knowledge. I also took the swineflu vaccin. I am losing extreme weight and am extremely worried. i had just found out what i wanted to do in life and know my entire life is falling apart.
Thank you for reading!
