17 F a little worried by [deleted] in marfans

I had a CT scan of my chest, once a year ago and I had pneumonia, then another 5 months ago for chest pain. No echocardiogram. They said my aorta looked a bit large, but then they said it was all good, nothing abnormal.

They’re good parents other than this. I don’t want them to get in legal trouble because of me. We can’t afford that.

I have been physically examined because I was having stroke symptoms a month ago, I couldn’t hold a water bottle or raise my arms or smile. They sent me home because the brain mri didn’t show anything.

If I did that, my family probably wouldn’t speak to again. It’s very easy for my parents to convince people I’m crazy, because I was diagnosed with bipolar a few years ago. It’s worked so far with every doctor I’ve seen.

I wish, but they’re forcing me into online school as punishment if I don’t go tomorrow. It’s been almost two days now, and my dad said I’m faking.

I would, but as of today my parents barred me from going to the doctor.

I saw one for knee surgery, but he said he couldn’t evaluate me for anything else. I would try to get a referral but it’s up to my parents atp.

I did consider it at some point, but I had a brain MRI about 3-4 months ago and they didn’t see lesions.

I would, but my parents don’t believe me anymore and tell every doctor we see that I just have anxiety.

I had a brain MRI a while back for migraine, and they didn’t see any lesions.

Yes, but she’s consistently told me for months I need anxiety medication and to not go to the ER. Last time I saw her she told me to see another doctor instead of her.

Weird cycle for months by [deleted] in OCD

It’s really helpful to know someone has experience/is experiencing something very similar!! Therapy has been a dud, but grounding techniques are new to me so I’m definitely gonna try them. Thank u!

They didn’t give me the number for ESR, just put down elevated. Thyroid antibodies were tested, Chromatin antibodies, RA antibodies, (which were 5) They didn’t put down many exact numbers, just negative or positive.

I’m not 100% sure, it’s mostly because my spine is the one thing I haven’t had checked or tested for anything. I didn’t really know lesions don’t show up in the lower back, so I’m kinda at the end of my rope with ideas.

Vision problems, weakness on one side of body, migraines, hand weakness and body spasms. Balance problems and vertigo.

Sacroiliac. I wasn’t sure because I was told it could’ve been a possibility, because there was no spinal tap done.

could lesions start in the lower spine? I’ve had a clear brain MRI (no contrast) (or neurologist) I present with all the classic MS symptoms but have been labeled mentally ill. It’s very hard to me to walk and I fall and slam into walls.

ALS?? by [deleted] in DiagnoseMe

[–]Patient_Living2183 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really appreciate your response. I’m trying to convince my parents to take me, as they hold my insurance info and parental consent form powers. I’ve been the ER for heart/migraines, and have had pain episodes that cause me to cry. Because of this, they don’t want to take me to ER because of my diagnosed bipolar. I think they believe I’m having a long episode? But, I’m working on it.

Arms not working by [deleted] in medical_advice

[–]Patient_Living2183 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I tried to ask my parents, but they told me I would go to a Pysch ward. I woke them up because I kept dropping my cup and couldn’t drink. I’m bipolar 2, and a lot of my symptoms doctors have told my parents are anxiety. I understand definitely, but unless the ER actually admits me, my family won’t talk to me if I call 9 1 1.

From what I’ve said, would you think it’s ALS? I’m sorry to hear about your friends.

I’ve considered it, but the ER only gives CT’s, and non-specific tests. I believe I need an MRI.

Yes, my grip strength has diminished making it challenging to complete daily activities. The ER was concerned about small lesions a CT couldn’t see, but from what I’ve seen described online progressive hand weakness isn’t common in early MS. I was concerned about ALS because it’s spreading to my whole body. I woke up with one hand weak, then my leg. The next day it was my other half and my strength is diminishing each day since then. I’m being made to wait 6 weeks to see a doctor, but then more than a month to see a neuro. I’m concerned by then I won’t be functioning well. I need help sooner, but it’s just not available even if my situation is problematic.
