I HAve came back here. I was told not to post anymore. But things are sadly not improved for me. I wish I could get at least some advice.I feel some words. I don’t know.. I feel completely lost... My neurologist since the beginning didn’t really contemplate MND, though was MS but that have been ruled out, 4 months since my symptoms began, so many tests done and negative results, she even thought I was having FND. She kept telling me I didn’t have clinical weakness.
She Performed and EMG February 1. I went back to see her on March 29, I told her I had lost 15 pounds, my right side weakness was getting worse, she only did a very basic exam, still strong, but again, unilateral briks reflex, she really didn’t take it seriously and I felt so frustrated... But I kept getting worse and worse, now I can’t drive, I don’t leave the house, cant barely walk, right arm, hand, leg and foot really weak, keep loosing weight.. and I have started to feel weakness in my left side too, pain it’s unbearable all over, internal tremors.
I have never felt this way before. I know my body and I knew something was wrong since I first noticed, back in January, the strange clumsiness in my hand and a few days later same thing in my right leg, that never went away… My life have been miserable since then.
So I called the neurologist again last week really concerned already . She was kind and immediately talked to the senior Neuromuscular specialist ( Kaiser Permanente LA) who was willing to open up a sooner consultation for me. This appointment will be this coming Monday. I am very scared.. . Any advices from you, beautiful people, would be highly appreciated.
Thank you very, very much,
Celine.
