Would have loved to have heard the rest of your narration of symptoms 😊 from your blog of symptoms. I’m confused though…. How on gods great earth, did a stay in a hospital and multiple doctors, did they miss MS? Did your brain not have lesions?

[@JenFindsGems]

Aww thank you!! That’s what I’m saying! I remember having an EKG and a few other random tests but not an MRI. I’ll have to check with my neurologist again when I go this summer to confirm if I have any lesions on my brain. When I was diagnosed last year, the focus was on my spine because that’s where I was having the jolts/attacks. If I’m remembering correctly, I haven’t had a brain MRI in a few years.

I’m in the process of figuring out what is wrong with me. I was diagnosed with vertigo back in 2007. 3 years ago I found out it’s not vertigo because my vision goes black and white. I can’t see anything. Right now all my results are coming back normal.

[@JenFindsGems]

I’m so sorry this is happening!! Do you have a neurologist? Have you had MRIs or bloodwork done?

[@desireeandrews6710]

@@JenFindsGems I had an MRI it came back normal. I had blood work but my doctor thinks it my heart. I just started having a hard time breathing. Am not sure what is going on. They are all passing the buck. I had to demand a different neurologist because he wasn’t listening and only spent 20 minutes for the first consult. My biggest struggle is no one is listening or believing I have these things.

@@desireeandrews6710 Wow, that’s the frustrating part about being a woman in the healthcare system, it’s so hard to find a supportive team of professionals that takes your concerns seriously. You are doing the right thing- stay persistent and keep advocating for yourself until you have answers! I hope you feel better very soon and please please take care of yourself as you’re going through this journey. I know how taxing it can be!
