Hello, I had a very unusual experience Monday in which my husband had to take me to the ER room. Sunday I hadn't been feeling well- unexplained feelings. I was on a small stool putting some groceries away and then I felt light headed and as I bent over to hold onto the handle I stood still- I closed my eyes only seeing a white then my hearing became vague. Luckily my husband was working on a project behind me. It was hard to communicate his name but finally did. He immediately caught me and placed me on the living room floor.
When originally diagnoised with severe depression/anxiety a year ago I had lost complete control of my legs. Finding they needed to put me on Lyrica for the Fibromalgia I then had to go thru PT to gain strength and be able to walk again.
The feeling of loss of movement in my legs reappeared. After putting me on the couch then taking my Lyrica a while later I was able to walk again. Still not feeling 100% we laid down and eventually went to bed.
The next morning as I was speaking to my husband I had pointed out to him I still was not feeling well. We were talking and then I really felt funny and extremely tired. In the middle of speaking to him I suddenly what seemed like I fell asleep occured. He felt I needed my rest so he went to the kitchen to make coffee. Soon after he walked over to see how I was doing I was completely out. The thing was that I was could hear everything but could not open my eyes; speak nor move my body. He suddenly realized the situation, tried to wake me but couldn't. I could hear everything that was going on- just couldn't respnd. He took me to the ER room; a male nurse brought the amonia to revive me. Even with that it was difficult but was able to get a response from me. I woke but with difficulty opening my eyes and still could not talk. They took blood; did a cat scan thinking it was a stroke but all the tests came out negative. The doctor spoke with Ted and I and indicated it may be nuerological or part of what my body seems to be reacting to a stressful or something dealing with my depression. It was a horifying experience. I called my psychatris told him of the situation. He was leaving out of town until the 19th which left me very uneasy. Prescribed me some atavan for anxiet until he returned.
Please give me any insite or suggestions while he is gone.
Desperate!
