Can you help me? I'm sitting here trying. All of the nerves in my body seem to have freaked out. Started in July. Woke up numb from waist down. Regained feeling after 6 houurs but developed foot roll (foot drop) Iin left foot. Three weeks ago, I woke up with right wrist drop that has not corrected even slightly. My foot has recovered enough to walk, but with abnormal gait, still falling sometimes. I am all alone, can't seem to get help very fast, and worried this is going to affect internal systems and shut down my organs at some point. I am alone and terrified. Do not want to die this way. Any help? Yes, I drink, while I have cut down a lot, I'm afraid I haven't been able to stop completely. I have also been using Kratom for pain, but have cut that by half as well. I know you will tell me I have to STOP, and I am trying, but I am afraid it is too late.

Hello Rebecca,
That sounds very frightening for you.

You need to be seen by medical professionals.
When did you visit your doctor last?

Were you ill with flu or other virus or did you have any vaccinations in June or July before this began?

Do you have any diagnosis, or testing done for this?

I have been trying to get a diagnosis since July. I go in for an Electrical test to see if the nerve in my arm is dead (honestly, I think it is, but have hope someone can help me). I am in PT, But honestly, they haven't done a thing for my hand but electrically stimulate it. ( and drain my lymph nodes) Not sure what to make of my PT right now, I need intervention, and she's doing pet therapy with me. I asked if she could do anything with my wrist, and her response was not confirming. She really is pressing me to get a diagnoses though. I see fear in her eyes.

No, went to neuro recovery at UW that was the most useless thing I have done weird part is ER doc told me I have a abnormal MRI. Insisted I go to UW 4 hours away, scheduled the appointment, but looking at my release papers, he does not mention it, and calls my paralisis "weakness* very Vanilla discharge papers for a guy who told me my brain scan was abnormal. Went to UW as requested, they say my brain scan is normal. What the heck!!!.

I did not have any vaccinations but just moved to Eastern Washington accross from the Columbia river. I have been attacked by moquitos severely since moving here, and the bugs around here are fierce. As well, we have a nice infestation at my workplace.

As well I have been dealing with a severe mosquito and bug problem since moving to Eastern Washington. As well, my new workplace has a pretty healthy mouse population. I don't think these are causational, but anything that have could have set this off?

I have a call in to have electrical testing to see if the nerve is dead, and to see what is happening with my other nerves. Hopefully in the next two weeks. But feel like if my nerve was alive at some point, healthcare inertia killed it.

I was pretty healthy before.moving.to.Eastern Washington in May. I should mention, I fell off of a motorcycle onto my upper back and head in July and required 28 stitches in my thighs from hitting the licence plate on the bike, but the foot roll had presented a couple of days previously.

If anyone can give me any words of comfort or compassion right now, I really need them.
