Naples woman with same condition as Celine Dion shares story of Stiff Person diagnosis

[@sachardavids3712]

Being dismissed by a medical professional is GROSSLY NEGLIGENT! How could you think this is all in her head? Hearing her cry on the floor was really hard - and she said it can last for hours. My heart goes out to you and your family.

Happens to women in pain every single day, no matter the severity. Women literally having heart attacks are dismissed (and sometimes die) because the pain doesn't seem strong enough by the doctor. Women with things like endometriosis or PCOS take as much as a decade to diagnose because their pain is so often ignored as "in her head."

[@jadesea562]

@@MrsBrit1 change women to humans. Humans deal with pain. All humans. This is not a woman thing. Pain is a human thing. Humans die from all kinds of things that doctors don't notice, because medical science isn't a manufacturers warranty. Medical science isn't perfect and doesn't know everything. Humans being doctors doesn't mean they are robot geniuses that can just know all things going on with a body, they are working based off of their experience and what they have learned. Then they try to research or find other doctors who might know things. HUMANS. This isnt about sex, race, gender expression, diet, socioeconomic status, or any other generic classification. HUMANS.

Yet, that is what they do time and time again. It's easier to put the blame on someone else when you have no knowledge of what is wrong, how to find out what is wrong and much less how to treat it. Just a lot easier to say you're crazy, you have mental problems, it's all in your head. That way they get off easy, instead of really putting their nose to the grindstone to help their fellow human beings

We as women hire our doctors. If you hire good doctors, that is not an issue. Unlike most men, some women just take who they are appointed to, not interviewing and hiring, then don't complain when not a good service provider. We have patient responsibility in hiring, just like with any other service we hire for. I've never had an issue as a woman, but I do the work and due diligence to hire a good provider, interviewing many before hiring and firing if they don't stand up to the job needed. It's a shame many women don't do that and then blame everyone else, which we see too often.

[@laur3222]

@@betsybabf748 It's a shame that certain demographics legitimately are likely to face more difficulty in having their healthcare providers actually listen to them. Yes, you can blame the patient but you're forgetting that there are people who can't "doctor" shop due to financial reasons, due to geographical isolation, etc. The reality is, more should be done to address the source of the bias rather than placing the burden entirely on the shoulders of those who are sick and ailing and looking for answers.

The world had been developing and using vaccines since 1721. It's the reason smallpox no longer kills 2-3 million people a year. Covid vaccines cut global deaths by around 63% and saved aprox 20 million lives in one year. If you factor in any side effects reported (of which a completely unrelated neurological condition is NOT one,) the benefits of administering the vaccine would still vastly outweigh the risk. Frankly, I trust scientists and those with decades of accumulated expert knowledge in their field over a bunch of Internet whackos and moral bankrupt individuals who exploit people's ignorance for their own agendas.

I got it when I was diagnosed with incurable cancer I couldn't move my arms,my shoulders. I had to turn like a robot. When I put my coat on I'd get one arm in and then the last one I had to bend my arm a bit and my God the pain. It had me in tears after about 9/10 months of it. In the end I had a pain doctor from Farleighs hospice came out to my home ( this was in the pandemic 2020) And he said he thought it wasn't anything to do with my cancer he said he was was 99% sure I had fibromyalgia. I couldn't even get my arm up to brush my hair, I had to bend forward enough to brush my hair in between my legs. He prescribed me these steroids and told me they were a one off. But the first one I took, after a few hours I put my coat on to go to the shop and I didn't notice to start with that I hadn't had any pain. Then I realised I then raised my arms above my head, I couldn't believe it. They put me on something else then and I carried on taking them for a couple of years and then the pharmacy told me that the manufacturer's had stopped making them. So I had to get an alternative for them. Well by the time the doctors done a prescription for something else about a week had passed and I hadn't had anymore pain so I didn't take what the doctors had given me and I still don't take anything for it. It's probably about 3 months now that I haven't. I know not everyone is like this I hope they would be believe me. Because I know how mentally it broke me. It was worse than the cancer.

A potassium sulphate drip was administered just like a pregnant person that needed to have their contractions slowed. A country Doctor used a common sense treatment that worked very quickly. My wife went years without another episode until mid 2015. This treatment was not known by any Doctors and the last time she went through this the ER doctor didn't want to listen. When she got so bad he finally swallowed his his arrogance and administered the same dose as was given to pregnant people who needed to slow contractions. Within minutes, as it did before, her episode had stopped. That was ten or fifteen years ago and we believe she is now cured.

Between time I had a doctor send me for tests, then told me I didn't have neuropathy at all and refused me my pain meds and migraine meds. I recently had more tests and neuropathy has been confirmed.

[@sherryab3964]

@@divahc1 my heart truly goes out to you really 🙏. I’ve felt pain in my life of course like toothaches, a broken bone a headache, etc. chronic pain is on a whole new level. I’m very sorry that you have gone through such a long process trying to get diagnosed, while being denied pain meds that really just take the edge off sometimes or may make the pain at least tolerable. The first time I ever met anyone with chronic pain was years before I became a nurse. I was a financial advisor and would go to the homes of clients. I met a couple in their 50s and the wife had chronic pain. Just the act of sitting in a chair was excruciating for her. She was underweight and bless her heart, she really wanted to be mannerly and sit at the table. I could see the heartbreak in her husband’s eyes. Curtains had to be closed due to severe headaches. I insisted that she make herself comfortable on the sofa where she would usually lay for any source of relief from the pain. I assured her she was not being a terrible host at all and that I would lower my voice, leave documentation so I could come back later on and make the visits short. I remember how lovingly her husband helped her to the sofa. Every step was agonizing for her. I was 30 years old at the time and never witnessed anything like that before. I actually sobbed on the car afterwards. I have empathy for my patients and I do whatever I can to ease their pain. I never tell them I know what it feels like because I don’t. I know that there are some or unfortunately many healthcare professionals who should drop their egos, stop playing the guessing game and focus on the patient as a human being. Many times we are not the experts and need to listen more to our patients. I’ve learned more from my patients than I think I ever did in nursing school. I sincerely hope that you get the care you deserve. I’m proud of Celine Dion for going public with this but especially the woman in this report. Take off the filters and lenses, take the smartphone and film what it’s really like. ❤️🙏

We lived with this condition for 45 years or longer. There were times she would pray to die because the pain was unbearable. You could visually see the muscle spasms as the turn as hard as rock in the body. She would often be dehydrated due to all of the sweating during the episodes. Cold, water, pain, or stress would bring on an attack. Often times the spasms would have her bending backwards, which we later name the "Duck Sway Back". My brother, sister, son, and nieces would have to pull her fingers apart because she would be screaming with pain. She would be exhausted afterwards and want nothing but quit. However, she didn't allow this condition to stop her as it often did; she kept on going. Always finding something to do or someone to help or somewhere to prepare a meal.

I’ve had seizures for 28 years and it took 28 years for me to get an official diagnosis. I’ve been on seizure meds for 28 years only to be told though that it was psycho genic meeting it’s in my head Well, I found out through reading on my own that cortisol, which is produced by stress can cause seizures. I’ve had a very stressful life. Progressively the seizures have become worse and worse and worse I’ve been unable to work for over 20 years. Now, for the first time I have medication that is controlling my seizures appropriately. And I am interviewing for jobs. In fact, I had a job interview today.

@@mcdeigo hello...I trust you are well 🙂. First of all, I never said "lawd", I said "Lord". So clearly myself and you are not talking about the same god. I'm talking about the Lord Jesus Christ ❤️ not your "lawd". Secondly, before you talk to people, kindly ensure that you have purified your inner self, so that in that way you won't have to insult people or let alone God by using words such as "wtf". Kindly clean your tongue first 😉. Thirdly, not all sicknesses are caused by God. Satan is also behind some evil diseases. But obviously you won't mention or talk about Satan because you clearly "belong to him" isn't it. That's why you are even insulting God, because you belong to your father "Satan". And for your information God the Father of the Lord Jesus Christ, he is very much loving, graceful, he is compassionate and he does heal. It is also loving to pray for the healing of others as He commanded us to pray for their healing, knowing that in his Faithfulness he will grant them healing. Instead of being rebellious as you are now, you could have been making yourself useful, particularly your tongue to be useful instead of useless, by speaking words of hope and assurance to others. These people that are sick, for your information they are praying and hoping for healing. But if they could hear someone like you speak the way you speak, indeed that's what they would call disgusting. Change your mindset, and the words that you speak will be full of life and grace for others, and you will not find yourself speaking useless words. Blessed Sunday 😊🌹

I was dismissed and gaslit and referred to psych for SIXTEEN years before I was diagnosed, finally, with my rare disease. And ONLY after I self diagnosed and demanded the proper evaluation. I had to FIGHT and beg, and persist. It’s brutal. My diagnosis is also 1-2 per million. Cushings Disease due to pituitary tumors. Just AWFUL.

I was supposed to get treated further but then they discovered I had throat cancer so that was emergency surgery and chemotherapy and radiation. My problem is I've survived the cancer after having my voice box and have my tyroid completely removed but am still waiting 2yrs later to have the pituitary tumor treated. I've put on 5 stone weight in 1 month and even though I can't really eat anymore I'm not loosing any weight. I'm thinking this is probably from the pituitary glance producing hormones. I'm also getting a lot of neck spasms but don't know if this is from the pituitary tumor or the radiation damage and surgery damage. So fed up no Dr's seem to be able to help and just keep saying well you survived the cancer . It's as if the pituitary tumor doesn't matter.

[@lilydewinters4729]

Psychogenic symptoms are tricky… and when you try to explain it to a patient, what they hear is often different from what is actually being said…and on many occasions patients will say, “So you’re telling me it’s all in my head?” There is an unfortunate stigma attached to the notion that our brains can cause physical symptoms. So when patients hear that, they automatically assume that the doctor is dismissing them as crazy.. Fortunately, that is not the case. Outcomes are variable and are hampered by the difficulty in communicating the diagnosis to patients. Psychogenic symptoms often mask underlying physiological disease. And the risks of both false positives and false negatives are high. Psychogenic is not a synonym for fake, they are usually not voluntary, and patients cannot just stop their symptoms. A psychogenic disorder is a real disorder - it is just that…the problem is with the brain’s software, not hardware. The brain is a powerful organ, and disorders of the brain can affect us physically. The effects of these disorders/ disease can be life-threatening and even terminal.

I've never followed Celine Dion's music, but I do know she was huge. This is so sad. It's crazy sad. Everyday, I am thankful for my blessings. I'm average - neither rich nor poor. I have my health, friends, flowers in my garden, and my kitties. I am grateful.

I had a client who had this. I was a hairdresser, and I did her hair. It was so incredibly hard watching her go through this. Hope and prayers for more research for this disease. Thank you for sharing your story. The only way people are going to understand this type of suffering is through documentation, and you are incredibly brave for allowing us to see this. To the naysayers I sure hope you don't have to ever explain this kind of suffering and have doctors turn you away because it doesn't fit in their cute little file in their heads of what a typical day should look for them.

[@lulumoon6942]

You are so typical of the everyday hairdresser: Empathic, capable, understanding. Lord bless you, and those you serve, with such an humble spirit. ❤️🙏💞

At least celine Deon might support more $ for research like micheal fox has.If she can cope.

Do not get jabbbed! And you won't get this. "CV-9 v@xcx" and ALL others?!! 💉 💉 💉 And don't worship the devil and dabble into the OCCULT / Witchcraft, like the abominable Celine Dion does! Your *only hope is in Jesus the Christ* - the Savior of the world and the God of Israel! And your only medicine is the HOLY BLOOD of Jesus‼️🚨⚠️ Call on Jesus to HEAL, save and deliver you, and to forgive all your sins, or you will never be healed but will die in your sins and go into eternal LAKE of fire and brimstone forever❗️ ⚠️📛🔥🔥🔥📛⚠️ #REPENT and #ReceiveJesus ‼️

I'm so sorry to hear of your pain and suffering. Prayers that this lady and Celine for a full recovery. I've had back spasms before and they are just so unbelievably painful that even breathing is difficult. I truly feel your pain.

How terrifying, and to have no control. I hope they help each other through. God bless them both, and everyone who suffers with this condition.

As i watch this i cried asking God to heal her and Celine ,its hard when we as healthy people get aches and pain we feel like we want to dye ,i can only imagine the extent of the daily pain there body is dealing with and the amount of tears they shed because of the pain they feel..Its very sad ...

[@JuliaShalomJordan]

Amen.🥵🙏🏻

[@Dasani_water_drinker]

Why cry for a wicked person. She’s Hollywood and does not worship God. Scripture says do not pray nor weep for wicked people. Look up her clothing line. That will tell you a lot

[@Natalie-ti9mg]

@@Dasani_water_drinker show me the scripture where it says that

[@Natalie-ti9mg]

@TG dont tell me look it up since u know the entire bible and what u think God said which he clearly never said anything of such as you claim then give me the scripture that he said so..

I had a muscle spasm in my neck when I was in my early 20s that made me unable to turn my head forward. It was stuck facing to the side for a few days. It only happened that one time like 15 years ago, and I’m still super careful that I don’t overexert my neck because I’m terrified of that happening again. The pain was that bad. I would put it almost on par with childbirth. I can’t imagine living with spasms like that all the time. I honestly would probably want to die. I feel so much for this lady and Celine and all the people suffering. Hopefully this will lead to more research ❤

[@sadiemakesmesmile]

I live with Endometriosis and muscle spasms like that every month, and yeah, sometimes I want to die.

[@jJust_NO_]

what triggered it? whats the causs

[@justineharper3346]

@@jJust_NO_ I never got a definitive answer why. I did have a significant injury about a year before that where I tripped over a stool and fell face first into the pointed side of a bathroom counter. I may or may not have been a little inebriated at the time. Lol. Anyway, I broke my cheekbone and and pulled my neck. The spasm happened about a year after I fell, and I blame it on my moms driving. I was holding on for dear life because she drives like a maniac 😂. The doctor said I probably stretched my arm too much while I was holding on and my neck muscles rebounded. I’ve had a few little ones through the years, but nothing like that because I baby my neck. I’m fairly certain I did permanent damage when I fell. Don’t drink so much that you wipe out kids. You’ll regret it when you’re older lol

[@justineharper3346]

@@sadiemakesmesmile that’s terrible. I’ve heard that can be extremely painful. I hope you can find a doctor that can help. I love heard it’s hard to find a good one for that too. I’m sorry ❤️

[@doeeyes2]

That happened to me to at around 24. Muscle spasm in my neck it was awful and scary. I still get occasional debilatating muscle spasms in my back (like maybe twice a year) but I have medication (antispasmodic) that works realky well.

[@trippyhippie147_2]

I have complex regional pain syndrome but before I was diagnosed nearly every doctor I saw told me “it’s all in your head” every time they couldn’t figure out what it was. I started to believe it actually was in my head until a physical therapist told me what he thinks it could be. To everyone out there suffering in silence, I see you, I hear you, and most importantly I believe you. ❤

[@cicim1493]

Woman are twice as likely to be misdiagnosed with psychiatric disorders before finding their actual diagnosis. Somatic disorder / functional movement disorder / conversion disorder are all coded syndromes for "its' in your head". These all come directly from Freuds original diagnosis of "Hysteria" which only woman were diagnosed with. Freud also suggested masturbation and essential oils to cure this "Hysteria" because he though the uterus was wandering somewhere in the body. Unfortunately he is the reason that a lot people still to this day believe the trope that woman are less rational / less mentally stable and more likely to be "faking" their illnesses.

I have interstitial cystitis and before I was diagnosed, I went to a specialist who told me after being subjected to hours of tortuous bladder tests that I just needed to stop having so much sex. I was 24 at the time and devastated because I was in a long term monogamous relationship with my husband and I said to him, I can’t even have sex it hurts too bad. He just looked at me really coldly. I will never forget him.

[@Siriuslyyy]

İ hope you are doing better. Your husband (ex?) İs heartless

[@mallen6035]

No, he was fine. He never pushed the issue. It was the doctor who was such a jerk and made me feel like garbage. And misdiagnosed me because I was a woman. I appreciate your understanding and kind words.
