When i was young 3-5 i had ear infections constantly. So i was put onto antibiotics all the time. By age 5 i hit my elbow and had my very first fainting spell that turned into muscle convulsions.
When i started school i also had my eyes checked and was diagnosised as dyslexic. My teachers made me read with colored paper (green/yellow) over all my school books.
When i started middle school (12 years old or so) my eyes were rechecked and i needed glasses to see. By this time my ear infections were now sinnistus all of the time so more antibiotics.
By the time i was 15 i developed chronic constipation and fainted on the loo. Then i started having upper respiratory infections instead of sinnusitis.
I missed so much school i was taken out of school. By the time i turned 17 i developed insomnia and severe irritable mood swings. The neuro said my sleep study was fine and i was put on antidepressants.
When i turned 18 i started to develop breathless spells. I saw a gp about this and was told i had anxiety and was put on different antidepressants.
By age 21 i developed eye floaters in my ldfy eye and was told they were due to aging.
By age 22 i started to have irregular bleeding and severe pain and cyst
At age 23 i had my daughter and developed post traumatic stress and was put in jail for a psychotic episode.
At age 23 i developed gastritis and lost 20lb in a month before my gp sent me to a GI specialist. The GI specialist said i also had ibs-c after a colonscopy and put me on senna.
Age 23: i was having severe breathing issues to the point i could not feel my face. I was sent to a therapist to learn how to breath correctly then put on nerve pills.
Age 24: i saw another gp about my breathing and was put on antidepressants i was told i was anxious and fidgetty.
At age 25 i lost feeling in my entire body one evening and could not move. I was helped to the ER and was told my tsh was fine all my test were fine. My chest xray and ekg were fine and sent home.
A few days later i went to another hospital because i couldnt feel my face and hands And it had been a week. I was told after a ct of my brain it was possible perpherial neuropathy. And was also asked by a nurse if i was worried Or anxious. I said well no sh*t i can't feel my face.
Finally saw my Gp the next week he noticed i had hand tremors to this my husband said I'd had them since i was 16. No one had ever told me that i shook. I brought it up to my mother and she said coworkers of mine had also commented on it! I was also told i have a gait.My gp sent me for a brain mri which ended up normal. With my symptom's i had my b12 checked and my level was 197.
My neurologist even said to me he didn't understand why i was so tired. ( i could have slapped him). I was diagnosised with b12 anaemia in March of 2016. I am currently 25 years old.
