|
 |
A few months ago, I was feeling kinda weak In my core body zone. I was crossing the street, and went to run, but my legs wouldnt do it! Since then it has gotten worse. I feel an ice cold numbness running through my arms and legs. I went to the doctor, and after checking me for a bit, she went and called in another doctor, and the both checked me.
One mentioned to the other Parkinsons, and brain cancer was mentioned. They want to do an MRI on my brain ASAP, but Im working poor, so I have to wait for a hand-out. Im used to running up and down ladders all day, and now I trip over cracks in the sidewalk. Thanks for listening, I dont have a solid friend circle. The people I know are self absorbed pricks.

My mother has this problem although she is older and its due to major nerves being squashed in the spine ( vertibrae ) due to the collapsing of them. Steel rods are to be fitted to take pressure off making limbs working again..
Parkinsons im not sure about the types, but my other halfs mother has that and it started with shakes/tremors in the side of the face and hand... Id of thought your problem is nerve related somewhere though.
As for brain cancer, cant say I know much about that but as all things medical there is always a chance if its that, that it can be treated if caught early.

Doesn't sound good but don't start thinking the worst. I hope you can financially sort it out to get yourself checked up by a specialist. Good luck bro!

Ouch, sounds like my brother..
Just remember to demand proper healthcare, it's scary stuff.
My brother had similar complaints, turned out to be MS, but, atleast he got into a experimental program and have improved. Sort of hilarious sort of cure, they have him worms, tape worms.. :} apparently with the auto-immune diseases, our oldest enemies refocus our immune system..
Makes me wonder if we just aren't living in too clean enviroments nowadays, bugwise, and too dirty enviroments, pesticide/pollution wise...

Good luck, best to nip the problem in the bud before it spirals out of control.

Im 42, thanks for the kind words, folks. I have had neck problems, running down my left arm on occasion been seeing a spine cracker for that. Im also on anti-depressants. Which are no longer working. I read that Parkinsons makes the cells that produce dopamine die. Maybe thats the cause of the depression, who knows? They want me back for testing right away, and Im limping to work, and crawling back. Only reason I still have a job is that I run big jobs(for peanuts) but I have good standings. But for how long? Im in big trouble right now. The only place from here are the streets.

Well, I finally got the money for the MRI, so I called the doc for an appointment.
On the appointment reminder it said: diagnosis MS. First Ive known, but I did the MRI today, so I guess I wait.

As far as i know MS is fatal, but just hope it's just a suspicion and not for certain.

As far as I know it is not fatal, it can be sometimes. it depends of the rate that the disease progresses. But it is incurable. Sorry.

Thankfully the heavy research going on is producing better drugs that brake the progress of it. Being diagnosed now gives a better prognosis than 10 years ago.
Hang in there Assie.
