Struggling with Unexplained Symptoms

Thank y'all once again. I do stay pretty hydrated but a little more water can't hurt lol

Yeah look into both dysautonomia and neurological stuff. Also lyme, def ask about lyme. In the meantime, try a little more hydration throughout the day. It might help

The dizziness and limb weakness is the worst so far. The dizziness is kinda constant in the fact that it's there when I stand and when I sit it can turn into blurry vision. but it's fine when I lay down and some days it's barely there. The limb weakness is both arms and legs and the arm weakness can get very very bad if I try to focus on tiny details (trying to get thread through a needle, etc). I did notice I get ear popping so idk I guess it couldn't hurt to bring up again.

it could be vertigo. and the next time you go to the doctor ask for a differential diagnosis that basically means they tell you all the things it could be and then you can ask questions from there

Hi! I’m so sorry you’re going through this. I agree with others saying it may be beneficial to explore whether it’s stemming from dysautonomia. It could be helpful to see a cardiologist for the dizziness when you stand. Also making sure you’re nourished & eating 3 meals & 3 snacks per day. I know that can be hard if you have a history of an ED, but working with a dietitian or a trusted loved one to make sure you’re getting enough nutrients could be helpful. I’m not familiar with limb weakness as that is not something I personally experience, but I hope you find some answers & are able to care for yourself in the process.

i agree with lizziemay, at the very least it could possibly help point you in the right direction! also, mayo clinic has the best pamphlet for pots!!

I was thinking pots but I feel like I need to do more research first. But I will probably bring it up at my next appt

POTS? ask about dysautonomias
