Hi,
Sorry if can’t keep myself away of this forum and spend your time, but I’m really scared. Is this a bulbar onset? Did someone have the same symptoms?
-In July I had vertigo and the ENT doc gave motion sick pills and went away in a few days
-I observed a short breath for 2 weeks but then I was ok
-night time my hands got numb but I moved closing-opening them and it was ok
-beginning of Sept. hand and leg slightly numb
-In a few days It started my nightmare – all my face, mouth, jaws, tongue were pins and needles and twitches all over my body. I saw o few doc. Including a neuro.I had a brain CT scan, MRI with contrast both clear. The neurolog gave me ordinary vitamins , 3 injections with b1,b6 and b12 and Lyrica. The numbness of my face is coming and going.
-I started to feel my arms and legs week, although I manage to do all the house work .I work very slowly.
-Last week again pins and needles in face , tongue, forehead, nose, throat are back night by night .I fell them starting from the tongue and going to all my face and down till my stomach . It can’t be anxiety because I’m asleep when they start.
-from last night this sensation of numb face didn’t go away. Looks like be worst on the left side. I feel my left eye little bit closer than the right one .I can drink liquids , chew and my my speech is still normal.
On 15th Oct I have an app for an EMG but till that day my mind is out of control. I’m scared for my kids , for my old father.
Are these bulbar ALS symptoms? How fast things change from this point? I pray to be in "good shape " till Dec.- Jan when i meet my daughter to have time to prepare her for...
I appreciate any help. Thank you.
