Symtpoms of Paralysis After Lifting Injury Posted: 06-12-06 10:34am
About a month ago I was doing a shoulder
press, and mid lift for some reason I
turned my head to the right, big no no.
Instantly I felt a twinge in my body, like
someone played all my nerves like a bass
guitar, then instantly I had a burning
sensation in the back right side of the
tongue, followed by lightheadedness.
This lasted for 5 seconds about, and then
went away. The following week my left
arm, was just feeling pretty week. Then
a week later I was driving and out of no
where, I was chewing some gum and driving,
and my throat got dry, I felt a
cold/nauseating wave over my entire body,
had to pull over, rapid heart rate, just
crazy and scary, lasted for about 30 mins.
Next day I started getting some tingling
sensations in my hands and feet. This
continued for the next week and ussually
happend right as I was about to fall
asleep. The second I was about to fall
into a sleep a part of my body would feel
like it was going into paralysis, and I
woudl have to shake it and make sure it
still worked. Had a few werid tingling
sensations in face, no dominant side.
I'm starting now after a month to probably
be having horrible anxiety attacks that
make me feel like i"m dying, but my
nervous system is so messed up I don't
know what to do. I don't really have
neck or back pain just one day I did on my
spine up to my brain. I went to the
movies which I love to do, bit 30 mins in
I start having these problems, can't
swallow hard to breathe, makes no sense,
it is like my brain can not handle the
emotion of the movies, like I get scared,
or worried. I usually drink beer to calm
the symptoms and am seeing a nerologist
tomorrow. But these things are coming
out of nowehre, I can't work, I can't get
to into conversations or my head feels
werid, and my hands may ge ta little numb,
then i'm tired. Unless I drink alot,
then it doesn't happen. So now i'm
having very minor facial twitching, and
hands sometimes twitch. It seems to be
getting worse, but I can't tell if it is
just anxiety, or actuality. I know I
really feel the symptoms though. I
haven't worked out in 1 month, and I can't
work, driving to me is some how scary now,
it is messing my life up pretty bad.
Yesterday was the worst symptoms I have
ever had. Please give any advice, thanks
for taking the time to read this.
