Hi guys my name is David
I had a cardiac arrest in 2008 which resulting in a hypoxic brain injury. I was in a coma for a while and when I woke the world was not how it looked before the injury. After a long spell in hospital and rehabilitation I learned to walk and talk again then returned home.
After seeing a neurologist he advised me that my partial lobe was affected which is to do with perception and touch sensation which explains why I have got a visual condition called Micropsia where things look smaller than they are. It is quite hard to live with because no one can see what I'm looking at! DOH!
I also have neuropathic pain in my feet. I take gabapentin but it is not very effective. To add to my all inclusive package I have twitching and jerks in arms and of course suffer from awful fatigue.
I know all injuries are different but I wondered if anyone else has the visual condition Micropsia?
Let me know.
David :o)
