"you sound you have visual snow syndrome and tinnitus, you should get checked up by a neurologist" you're just jealous I can see galaxies all the time and the universe whispers its secrets only in my ears

Imagine having a neurological disease that no neurologist actually treats. That's what having Fibromyalgia is like.

Tomorrow is such a nervewracking day. I have a neurology appointment, and I'll be finding out the results of my EEG/finding out if we caught any epileptic activity on it. I'm freaking out because I've been having convulsive seizures, and I just want to find out the source of them and if they aren't epileptic in nature it honestly feels like it's going to set me back one step in recovery.

So I ended up getting a popliteal cyst (also known as a baker’s cyst- his name is Fred) behind my knee that I went to the ER for on Sunday. They have me now scheduled for an orthopedic surgeon and knowing I can finally tell someone who could get to the source and Dx behind my pain and my subluxations, tremors, hand problems, joint problems, hyper mobility. I have a slip or subluxation every other day if not every day.

Just knowing answers are soon. Someone will finally X-ray my problem areas. They will see with undeniable proof that my body has something going on, though I personally think maybe hEDS, since I have a POTS dx (and probably MCAS). I think there could be more but I’m finally going to be taken seriously. I will make sure of it, 2025 is the year of “I’m pulling the Aries out and advocating ferociously for myself and my health”.

I’m so happy. Pain this morning is 6.5/10 but I’m just vibing. Things are falling into place.

Fred is still around but isn’t as big now!

Additionally I have an EEG and MRI of my head next week to see if an incident I had was a non-epileptic seizure and that my brain is okay and to see what’s up. My Neurologist also gave me the initial Emgality shot that I will get every month and is trying me on Ubrelvy since Nurtec isn’t covered by in insurance and while I’ve had headaches since, I haven’t had any migraines since that shot. My neurologist really cares and is worried and I appreciate that man.

People with ms who are willing to answer, how long did it take for you to get diagnosed? What was the process?

I saw my neurologist today. I have very little faith in all doctors because it doesn’t matter how much I think Im dying, no doctor ever believes me. Then, of course, none of my tests prove my pain.

My new neurologist seems to believe my symptoms but he did bring up “conversion disorder” which is just another way doctors tell me “nothing is really wrong with you.”

Have your doctors said this to you before diagnosing you finally with ms?

Nothing like your neurologist telling you she thinks you have carpal tunnel AND a possible aneurysm.

Can you die in your sleep from a migraine?

Migraines are more than just headaches — they are complex neurological conditions that can cause intense pain, nausea, sensitivity to light and sound, and even visual disturbances. If you or someone you know suffers from migraines, you may have wondered: Can a migraine be fatal, especially during sleep? The short answer is, while extremely rare, migraines themselves are not usually life-threatening. However, in some cases, migraines can be associated with conditions that pose serious risks.

Understanding Migraines and Their Impact

Migraines are caused by changes in the brain’s blood flow and nerve activity. During a migraine attack, certain chemicals in the brain are released, causing inflammation and changes in blood vessels. While migraines themselves are not fatal, complications or underlying conditions linked to them could lead to severe outcomes.

Rare but Serious Risks Associated with Migraines

Although migraines are not directly life-threatening, there are some rare conditions related to migraines that could become dangerous. These include:

Stroke: Migraines, particularly those with aura, may slightly increase the risk of ischemic stroke. A stroke can occur when the blood supply to the brain is disrupted, potentially leading to life-threatening complications.

Migrainous Infarction: This is a rare condition where a migraine with aura results in a stroke. It requires immediate medical attention.

Seizures: In some cases, severe migraines can trigger seizures. If you have both migraines and epilepsy, it’s essential to consult an Epilepsy Specialists Doctor in Shalimar Bagh for comprehensive care.

Sleep Apnea and Migraines: Sleep disorders like sleep apnea can exacerbate migraines and pose additional risks to overall health. Addressing sleep-related issues is an important part of managing migraines.

How to Stay Safe During a Migraine

While the idea of dying in your sleep from a migraine is extremely unlikely, it’s still important to take precautions, especially if your migraines are severe or frequent. Here are some tips:

Monitor Your Symptoms: Keep track of your migraine patterns. If you notice any unusual or worsening symptoms, consult the best neurology doctor in Delhi immediately.

Seek Timely Treatment: Don’t ignore frequent or severe migraines. The best neuro doctor in Delhi can help you find effective treatments to reduce the frequency and severity of attacks.

Address Underlying Conditions: If you have other health conditions like epilepsy or sleep apnea, managing them can significantly reduce migraine-related risks. Visit an Epilepsy Specialists Doctor in Shalimar Bagh for expert advice.

Migraine Treatment Options

Managing migraines requires a combination of lifestyle changes, medication, and sometimes advanced therapies. Here are some common treatments:

Medications: Pain relievers, preventive drugs, and medications to treat nausea are commonly prescribed. A Migraine Specialist Doctor in Shalimar Bagh can help you determine the best medications for your condition.

Lifestyle Changes: Stress management, regular exercise, and maintaining a consistent sleep schedule can reduce migraine triggers.

Advanced Therapies: In some cases, treatments like Botox injections or nerve stimulation may be recommended. Consulting the best neuro physician in Delhi can help you explore these options.

When to Seek Emergency Help

If you experience any of the following symptoms during a migraine, seek emergency medical attention immediately:

Sudden and severe headache that feels different from your usual migraines

Weakness, numbness, or difficulty speaking

Loss of consciousness

Seizures

These symptoms could indicate a stroke or another serious condition requiring immediate care. Don’t delay in seeking help from the best neurology doctor in Delhi or a nearby clinic.

I see no light at the end of the tunnel

I truly never see my life without pain and mobility issues

You are next to my last hope because I don’t want to fight for this or my life

update on my tic disorder diagnosis process:

i went to see the neurologist. she said it's not tourettes and that's it. im still not diagnosed with a specific disorder. all i did was my fist to chin tic the entire appointment.

she said i could upload a video of me ticking to the patent portal so i am going to on Wednesday. I'm going to try to hold in my tics while speaking about how it all started and all my different types of tics. I feel like if I try to hold it in it is certain that I will tic considering I'm not the best at doing it. I mean I am, in public, but I usually just defer to a less noticeable tic or wiggle my toes.

I will make sure to let u guys know what happens when it comes to the diagnosis!
