Default whiplash followed by loss of power in arms and legs

10 weeks ago (june 5th 2007) I was rear ended whilst driving. At first I thought I was suffering from 'normal whiplash injuries'. After 1 week, I began experiencing severe spasms in my neck which drag me to the floor and are extremely painful. I have these episodes on DVD for Doctors' to see.
My G.P. witnessed me having one of these attacks and had never seen a presentation like it before.
After 8 weeks, I had an involuntary jolt with my head being thrown backwards and immediate paralysis in my arms and legs. After 3-4 hours, the feeling in my limbs returned.
An MRI was ordered and the results have been returned with no problems.
I am continuing to experience the spasms and jolts and am now very anxious that I do not have another jolt backwards that causes paralysis again as I fear it could then go from temporary to permanent. I am now waiting to see a Neurologist.
Has anyone ever heard of this type of Pathology / diagnosis.
I would very much appreciate any help.

Best Regards

linsky
