In July the neurologist didn't give me a diagnosis. The neurologist just told me it was not seizures and that they were called episodes. That's all the information I got from her. All of my diagnosis papers say "Post concussion syndrome." The entire time they were testing for tonic and atonic seizures


What I talked to the ER doctor about was the symptoms that I listed. He said that they sounded and looked spot on for dystonic tics. Recommended me to a neurologist to have them looked at further. He prescribed me the steroids then but said he couldn't help further. He didn't say why.

The ER doctor did not know about the caffeine. I forgot about drinking coffee that day. The last nurse that asked me a bunch of questions, asked me, "If I took any possible drug." Caffeine was one of them, which reminded me. She is the one that told me that it was likely due to that. She recommended the same neurologist as the ER doctor. I was given discharge papers shortly after. The discharge papers say "Dystonic Drug Reaction"

I did not talk to the ER doctor after that nurse left and was released shortly after the nurse left.


-editors note- I re-read my posts and I got some information wrong in the timeline and who said what. I've made sure this version is as right as it can be.



I won't drink any caffeinated drinks, even soda. Definitely not worth it.
