NEUROLOGIST CALLED...WITH RESULTS!

Hey guys

Hope you are all good.

So my neurologist called me to tell me ALL my blood tests came back normal which means i dont have any nasty viruses :slight_smile: yay! i had a chest xray today to rule more things out but he said he suspects this will be normal.

I do feel like i am improving…my old knee inury which has been worsened by the inflammation in my nervous system is kinda painful but i been goin to physio. i still have sensory symptoms…abnormal sensation in certain places like the bottom of my legs and stomach but i guesss thse things could last for months.

I know this is gna sound so random but i hit my head on a slanted ceiling this morning and my head has been hurting since!! You guys dont think its concussion do u? I aint been sick or passed out or anything, but my head feels sore :frowning: i just dont want to do any more damage to my brain. ADVICE PLEASE?

hope u are all well xxx

Good news on the meds (and that your neuro actually called!).

Your head’s bound to feel sore for a couple of days - don’t worry about your brain though, our skulls are pretty thick!

Yea i know!!! bloody miracle!!

Thanks karen. i was/still am scared i have concussion…i think i would have got worse though by now…it was 8 hours ago!!

what do you think? x

I think it’s pretty unlikely. If it was concussion I think you would have more symptoms.

Hi ya

Well now that’s good news!

Bummer about banging your head though…althogh like the others have said I doubt there’s much to worry about - other than it being sore of course!

Let us know how you get on with the other tests - I’m sure they’ll be fine.

Good luck!

Hi guys thanks for all the replies. I woke up this morning so im still alive! yay lol. my head does still hurt though but i did hit it on a concrete wall so im not really suprised. does feel kinda tender! :S i aint got worse or anything though and think i would have by now!!

Yea so basically all my tests were negative so atm he thinks as i was ill 2 weeks before all these symptoms that its a virus that affected by nervous system and he said anything neurological can take months to go.

I have decided to have another brain scan at the beginning of next year as i want to see that the lesions have decreased. my mum thinks there is no point if i dont have symptoms but i think i would like to fo my own sanity!

what do you all think? worth it or not worth it? x
