Re: Three Doctors and a Nurse Practitioner Later....
A little update.
I've been relatively fine since I last posted, but this weekend I've gone through a hard time.
It started Saturday. I saw a black hole in the middle of my vision for a split second. It was an irregular shape but it went away too quickly to see which eye I saw it out of. After that, I'd see a lot of split second abnormalities (like a red sharpie mark in my peripheral vision). My eyes started burning around the rims.
The next day my legs felt very stiff and weak. As time went on, they got extremely spastic, especially my left leg. I lost bladder control for a few hours, and had small leaks. I went to take a shower and I was nearly falling while trying to shower. Later in the day, I completely lost my ability to walk. Fatigue was heavy, and I took a 3 hour nap and was still sleepy when I woke up.
I have been unable to walk since, but today I've improved in strength. I also saw the doctor. Apparently I was never referred to LSU by that nurse practitioner. So now I'm at least going to see a neurologist. Whatever this is, it sucks. I don't know why I have to go through this, and I need some advice right now about how I'm going to live like this.
