Avatar n tn She had to use her right arm to pick up her left after we asked her to move her left arm. She has been having pains in her left leg then this happens.
458594 tn?1206301123 My Boxer had a seizure yesterday and has hind leg weakness...more on the left side. I noticed a change in his behavior the day after I applied Frontline Plus drops on the back of his neck area. This is the only thing different that I can remember we did. He was fine, running, jumping and the next day was more lethargic and the following day had a seizure and was incontinent of his bladder during the seizure. Please give me some insite or what to look for.
Avatar n tn I'm not sure if you have gotten any resolution with your epilepsy, but my 13 year old daughter started with left leg issues that went into full seizures. She is now 15, and still has this problem. She has recently been diagnosed with reflex epilepsy, because the conscious or even unconscious thought if moving her leg sets off spasms in her leg, that will go into seizures. She has been labeled as refractory, because nothing is controlling it any more and we are looking into possible surgery.
Avatar m tn In adults, MNDs occur more commonly in men than in women, with symptoms appearing after age 40, that doesn't mean it never happens in women in their 30's because it definitely can but it is one heck of a giant leap to connect something that only lasts 1-3 seconds with anything like an MND. Q:Anyone know what this could be? A: I double checked all the physiological explanations i'm aware of and what you've described isn't suggestive or consistent with anything serious...
Avatar f tn I can usually fall back asleep, and when I wake up I am basically fine, but I feel a slight weakness in my leg and way more exhausted than normal. It is really hard to describe, and I've had an EEG and a cat scan which turned out totally normal, but an x ray showed a pars defect on the left side of my spine (L1).
Avatar f tn It is constant and causes jerking motion in the leg. When she is standing her leg shakes. Is this a normal progression with Alzheimers?
1563022 tn?1296332599 Went to listen to live music at 7. Thought it would b nice to remember a weekend nite. Sat down and WHAM like I got smacked in the back of the head with a hammer. Was texting, started shaking REAL bad. Dropped phone. Lost it for 1-2 minutes. Acutuley aware of what was going on but was paralyzed. Is this a seizure? Spoke to a friend who has an epileptic friend and he said spots in front of your eyes is a good indicator one is coming. Had that at 5:30 or so. Worst in my life.
Avatar m tn The patient is a 21 year old male with no significant past medical history. Patient had recent bloodworm that was unremarkable;e and is in good physical health. He first experienced "pins and needles" in his right arm, right face, torso and leg while he was making breakfast. Along with this, while breathing in through his nose he described it as "super sensitive" to sense. No apparent motor dysfunction during the event. It resolved itself in under 10 minutes.
Avatar m tn My 2 yo, 100lb dog has frequent tremors in his leg (s). They typically occur when he sits but he can also have them when he lays or sleeps. The vet believes phenobarbital will help but he doesn't have seizures. Does anyone have experience with this?
Avatar n tn In December I had a minor stroke. MRI showed 3 signs of stroke and 1 what radiologist described as a peculiar lesion at brainstem which they are still working up, possible MS. I am going today for another MRI of brain and spine. When I called the neurologist after the first time an episode like this happened he thought it was probably muscular, which I am convinced it is neurological.
Avatar n tn He said my eyes had remained open but that he thought I was unconcious for about 5 seconds, whilst my leg had been tensed up in a stress position. Afterwards I had ringing in my ears, couldn't string a sentence together for a couple of minutes and felt very sick and tired. Does anyone know if it is possible to faint with your eyes open? Did I faint from pain or was this a seizure? If it was a seizure, how could it be related to the pain in my hip?
Avatar m tn If you want to, you can ask (but doc may refuse) if you may also take home a single dose of diazepam, to give your dog at home in case he has a break-through seizure that will not stop in a few minutes. If so, it will come in a syringe, and must be kept cold until use.Have the vet educate you on how and when to use it. I hope I have helped here.
Avatar f tn Well, if you have a history of cerebral DVT and seizure and now have headache, dizziness and loss of control over bladder and leg, please rush to ER. You will need urgent MRA/MRI. All the best! Take care! The medical advice given should not be considered a substitute for medical care provided by a doctor who can examine you. The advice may not be completely correct for you as the doctor cannot examine you and does not know your complete medical history.
Avatar f tn I have been in terrible pain today in my lower back, which radiates down my leg...at times it is excruciating...and others its just tingling....from the spot in my back that hurts, all the way down my back feels very hot to the touch, on the right side only, all the way down. The headache and neck pain, arm pain and nausea is back as well today. Has anyone had a similar experience???
Avatar n tn I'll start from the beginning. I've suffered Insomnia for at least 10 years and have been on either Ambien or Ambien CR ever since. Some nights it works...others not so much. I'll also throw in that I've had a moderate bilateral hand tremor as long as I can remember and no doctor has ever given me a reason for it. OK, moving on. I also developed Migraines about 10 years ago and the solution was to try a parade of instant remedies (Imitrex, Relpax, etd.) of which NONE worked.
452814 tn?1205766600 I have not noticed a change in color of my legs but then again it happens only in the evening when I am in bed, it does not hurt until I am in the bed for about an hour or so, that is when it starts and it is beginning to get to me mentally, physically, and emotionally. I take several medications. Alproic acid 1000 mg. 2 a day and 2 in the evening, Lorazapam 1 mg. 3 times in the evening and hydroxazine 25 mg, 2 every evening.
Avatar f tn There are different types of epilepsy with different characteristics like grand mal epilepsy you have tonic clonic generalized muscle contractions, frothing, unconsciousness, twitches, metal confusion, some may lose bladder and bowel control, usually preceded by an aura of impending seizure. aura is a strange feeling of muscle stiffening, hearing weird sounds, smelling strange smells etc. absence seizure manifest as brief staring spells where the person is cut off from the surroundings.
Avatar m tn Over the course of the month the blank stares, unresponsiveness has increased and now she has seizure like activity with her eyes, now its her right arm, and her right leg. Her seizure like activity has increased in length and several times a day...Test so far: 20 minute eeg, 24 hour eeg(had several episodes during the test), blood work,ekg, CT scan all which were normal except a small difference in her potassium.
Avatar n tn Slight muscle twitching may also occur. You may have experienced seizure activity in the past also when you had a leg jerk. That type of seizures are called Myoclonic seizures. They involve an extremely brief (< 0.1 second) muscle contraction and can result in jerky movements of muscles or muscle groups. Please go for an MRI of the brain and consult a neurologist for the management. Hope this helps you. Take care and regards!
906339 tn?1256493515 This concerned me, but I was having other issues (seizures) that kept me in and out of the hospital. Now that my seizure issue is over (I had brain surgery in Jan), I still feel these sensations, but it's dull. I hold my teeth together and I feel the subliminal vibrating. So I'm sure it's my nerves. Do you have any advice as to what this is? (I've also written a note to you, doctor, about pulsing sensations in my leg. I'm just a bundle of nerves!
Avatar f tn My husband is 30 and yesterday had a severe seizure. His body tensed up, and his eyes rolled in the back of his head and then he started compulsiving and spitting up. I believe this was a seizure. After wards he became very combative and was very confused. He doesn't remember the seizure at all. The doctor said that it was due to substances abuse.
