Re: Husband's Symptoms....What is it?
These are the symptoms my husband is having. Please help me figure out this dilemma. Doctors said it was all due to stress.....I'm not buying it.
age 37
never has a cold or flu
eats organic...very healthy for years
used to work out but doesn't anymore
stressful job...lots of transitions in past 3 years....just married, wedding, new house.
fatigue
redness of eyelids
no color to skin...very pale
loss of vision in one eye (left side)
facial numbness (left side)
fingers numb (left side)
arm numb (left side)
tingling in hand and fingers (left side)
lipomas (multiple on both sides) arms and legs.
tonic clonic seizures (2)
night jumping/jerking in sleep
waking up due to falling off building/night terrors
extreme pain in shoulder and muscle tension in shoulder blade area
sleep problems
nausea
headaches
fatigue
anxiety
memory problems
some bladder/UT issues but he says it is nothing major
Sounds like MS, right? Keep reading.
Bite mark on back on left side that he has scratched with thumb for 5 years or so that now looks like a bruise.
After all symptoms had already presented themselves, he was bitten on our honeymoon by something that left a bullseye rash. He already had one on his back years before.
We have had an issue where mold was in our rental condo. It wasn't in the alarming numbers but they advised us to move immediately. (they were also doing mold remediation work for the attorney who owned the property) I was having reactions with skin, flu-like, asthma, also and we know it wasn't healthy for us and moved. Aspergillus/Penicillum and Chaetomium...not good.
So, I am totally confused!!! I think doctors are too. They did do a Lyme test after first calling me crazy....literally...thought I was nutso.
It was negative.
He had an MRI...no lesions. There is a possible herniated disc but he hasn't been back to the doctor to even get results yet. He's more concerned about getting the lipomas out than the overall putting together of symptoms.
Everyone thinks I'm obsessing over this and that he's just stressed. He's lost weight and doesn't have energy. He just works nonstop and forces himself to work harder to make more money. I can't get him to go to any specialists because he thinks I'm just researching because I like researching or something.
Someone help me convince him that this is not just Normal!!! And what is it?!!
