I've been struggling for a while with what I first thought was a trapped nerve, (have history of back ops and nerve damage)
Over the last week it has got much much worse, I have major whole body spasms ( except my right arm)
If I touch anywhere on the left side of my body it brings on the spasms, I can't put my left foot flat to the floor cos of the pain and spasms. The spasms have been witnessed by my GP and the consultant, GP said it's looked like epilepsy but It's not as I'm totally with it throughout.
My doctor has been fab, saw her twice last week and she's phoned me three times to check how things are.
She got me an urgent appointment with the spinal surgeon which was yesterday.
Consultant says it is not a back problem or a trapped nerve, but is a neurology problem.
They've asked for full MRI scan and for me to see the neurologist, I'm very worried about this but mostly worried about my kids and who will look after them.
I'm hoping that it might be something like a bleed in the brain that they can sort out easily but my head is taking me to very scary places, does anyone have any ideas or stories that may help?
Thanks in advance.
