Hello
 

I'm Eric. Recently I've been seeing a neurologist due to several symptoms that have arisen over the last year. It started with a tremor in my right hand which began to worsen. Six months ago I woke up with the right side of my body being numb and an inability to walk straight. I went to the doctor thinking I'd had a stroke. After two MRIs, one with contrast, they couldn't pinpoint the problem. I went to a second neurologist who, after another MRI, believed that I was dealing with restless leg syndrome and placed me on Mirapex, .5mg a day. Since then, the tremor and shaking in my right hand has gotten worse. My balance is off (I sometimes have to plant my feet firmly in order to stand steady), my head is beginning to bob constantly, I have dizziness and my memory, cognitive functions, and speech are becoming affected. The neurologist said that there isn't anything going on, even after I had a Video EEG done which clearly showed I was kicking and having body jerking in my sleep along with constant twitching.

I'm now seeing a third neurologist who prescribed another MRI. I lose so much sleep every night which makes me constantly exhausted.

If anyone is experiencing anything like this, any advice would be greatly appreciated. I'm starting to think my doctor believes I'm a hypochondriac. The thing is, you can't really make this up. I've even made a video of the tremors and limb jerking.

Greetings!!
