      Is there anything that you can tell me about this disease that would probably or help me in trying to get a doctor to Rightly diagnosed this. I was very active running 5 mi a day working two jobs with heavy lifting and I slowly but surely just started the deteriorate with heavy spasms in my back I'm sitting here at 7:35 I've been up since 3:00 I'm very tired but still cannot sit because if I do it makes it worse I've had suggestions from the doctors that I could have lupus or multiple sclerosis but nobody does the test. But I have lots of spasms in my lower back from the buttocks to to the middle part and thoracic spine I have a lot of swelling in my hands Sandy blushing turning red. It drives me crazy. I can't stand the heat I can't stand it in the in the upper 80s I have to have it in an environment that's cool but not too hot. Certain foods I can't eat at all because it reacts to my symptoms mostly processed foods and things like that and the natural the better and organic is better for me but I haven't been a hell of a time I do have trouble with sleep apnea and very much here lately in the last 3 or 4 years trouble swallowing I'm getting choked. I get very stressed and frustratedbecause having to deal with doctors like this video says you have to constantly say the same things over and over and over again and you still don't get it you have to take medicines that make you feel even worse so I'm like I don't want to take any medicines I'm tired of jumping through hoops I'm tired of the next test and what works a lot of the time for the pain and inflammation are things that doctors don't want to take and give you like Xanax I can use that for sleep and my nerves when I'm tired of dealing with the doctors that are just not listening. I can't take gabapentin I took one gabapentin Dr gave me and my whole body went numb I scared me so bad I never took another one and tell them know you can keep that crap it it made me go into a sure panic and it took several months for that medication to leave my body. I just don't know what to do. Pain is the worst I've never been tested as far as I know for the elevated gaba 65 . They have diagnosed me with multiple skeletal disease, hypothyroid anxiety and depression I have post-traumatic stress syndrome not only for having to deal with this but other things that's happened to me in my life. I have gained up from $120 all the way I I have gained up from $120 all the way I didn't I have gained up from $120 all the way I didn't I have gained up from $120 all the way I didn't say I have gained up from $120 all the way I didn't say I have gained up from 120 lb all the way up to 255 lb the other day I'm only 5 ft tall and I am prone to falling. I had some damage during an epidural when my son was born severely nobody took responsibility for that either these doctors they just don't want to listen to me. Gaslighting is the worst of my city. Yeah this video mentioned sound when I get to where I'm very stressed out if someone were to drop a pin on the floor I just like want to jump out of my skin because I'm so addled with the situation and I want to move but then I'm so tired of worn out by the pain of the spasms in my back I don't get to sleep. I'm trying to over and over again deal with that and nobody's listening it's the hardest part like they want to watch to see what happens but they don't want to do anything because they never thought lost their study case and that's what I feel like they possibly know what it is but they're not going to treat me cuz they want to see how it progresses. Anything you can tell me that might help if you have the time. Would be help

    • @lbbean6544
      @lbbean6544 8 месяцев назад

      Some of your symptoms sound very similar to those experienced by people who have PLS or ALS.
      I have PLS which is Primary Lateral Sclerosis. A Neurologist usually concludes a PLS or ALS diagnosis after they do an EMG test
      “Electromyography (EMG) measures muscle response or electrical activity in response to a nerve's stimulation of the muscle. The test is used to help detect neuromuscular abnormalities.”
      Try taking some Magnesium Glycinate to see if this helps ease your muscles spasms
      You must change your diet- cut out all processed foods, gluten, sugar, diary and soy.
      I bet that if you went on the Carnivore Diet that you would see some improvements relatively quickly because you would cut out ALL foods that could possibly be exacerbating your symptoms.
      You should look for a well experienced Functional Medicine doctor as they can run a bunch of tests that will show what areas of your body need support. Plus they can help you to determine if you have high heavy metal levels or mold mycotoxins in your body; or if you have any viruses, bacteria, fungus or parasites etc.
      At a minimum you should consider using an infrared sauna to help you to eliminate any toxins that you have in your body.
      Good Luck!

    There are probably a lot of underprivilege under insured people that have this and Don't have access to the health care to find out. The US needs to do something about this health care system. These people could afford to find out they have it. But there are many others who can't afford to get properly diagnosed.

    Thank you for posting this. I have been stable, but notice I'm getting weaker. I get IVIG every other month, but am getting off other drugs. Exercise helps. It's been 5 years, and though most neurologists know nothing about this, I'm researching every healing thing I can. Something as simple as scheduling a colonoscopy turned into a fiasco, because I can't explain to my nurse why I can't prepare-I take drugs to control spasms that act like seizures.

    • @JoPerry-by3wd

      It was originally called stiff man syndrome, but as time went by, they discovered women outnumber the men diagnosed.
      It is the muscles which react, but severe attacks result in those muscles pulling so hard against each other, it can damage the muscles, tendons, cartilage, and it has been seen that bones can be broken.
      It is extremely painful. It is not the same for any two people.
      There are various triggers which can bring on an attack, but attacks can take place without triggers too.
      Sometimes there are periods when it is less severe for a while, but it doesn't stay better.
      SPS is very difficult for family and friends over time.
      Thanks for caring enough to ask.

      It is not joint stiffness, like arthritis. It is rigidity in the muscles, and often jerking.
