Both physically and mentally. All food makes me sick. I can't go off gluten till I see my nutritionist on Monday. I am starting to lose weight again.
I am also noticing slips in my comcentration. Spelling mistakes I would not ordinarily make, skipping words in sentences, losing words. CT scans say there is nothing wrong with my brain. The anxiety is starting to become unbareable. I can hardly sleep even with anxiety meds and sleep medication. I have had all these tests and they all come back normal and I have almost an intermenable amount streching out in front of me. And at my core I know something is wrong. I feel insane I am starting to lose hope. I feel like all the results will come back as normal and I will just be labled as crazy. I am not sure I can handle that. |

It could be servere anxiety causing you problems or one of your medications. I've noticed the same slips in concentration and skipping words in sentences, etc. I think it started when I started Klonopin but it's still better than the unrelenting anxiety I was having. You are not crazy but there my not be a finite reason as to why this is happening. I'm sorry to say. You might want to consider seeing a pdoc and having an assessment done. I know it not what you want to hear but it could have a mental health reason.

I agree with gaylegg, your "neurologic" problems may be due to mental health issues.
Having normal results in your exams should be a reason for you to become calmer. In my case I had experience lots of similar symptoms without having any physical cause. |

I am sorry to hear that Curupira and hope you can figure it out.
CT scans can only show so much. They are not going to show if you are having some cognitive effect from a med or if it is mental illness or stress causing it. I have had a weird cognitive effect I think is related to my new meds. When typing I often substitute one word for another. Like I will type did instead of it. It is always similar types of words like, and, if, but, is, did, of etc. That is the only thing that makes me wonder is because it seems like the same types of words in a pattern and I have never noticed it before. It seems to be getting better.

I have had odd neurological side effects from a previous medication I was on. For a while it was worth the benefits but eventually switched. Maybe it has something to do with that or just the anxiety itself. Mental health can cause a number of things.

Bless your heart. I understand how you feel. I suffer panic attacks and I have been going thru much the same thing, without the eating and weight loss problem. My doc prescribed an anti-anxiety drug but now I am afraid to take it after I had dizzy and blackout spells after taking just 2 doses. It may not have been the medication. I don't know. I had a CT scan of my head and carotid ultrasound test done Wednesday. I haven't heard from the tests yet. I almost didn't follow thru and have them done, but my doctor's office insisted I have them done and went out of their way to find a facility that would accept my insurance. We are not crazy. But I sometimes wonder how many of our physical problems come from depression and anxiety. Take care of yourself.
