Does This Sound Like a Tia Or Maybe Md? Posted: 05-09-06 18:12pm
I am pretty healthy person, I dont smoke,
no drugs, occasional alcohol and in
shape.
I had an episode about 2 months ago where
I was sneezing and as a result had a sharp
pain in my head. A few hours later the
right side of my face and arm started to
get numb. I went to the emergency room,
took a ct scan and nothing showed up.
Symptoms subsided but I constantly had a
mild headache and mild numbness on my
right side. Had a mri/mra and nothing
showed up. Nothing on my blood tests
either. Everything else is pretty normal
except my symptoms. My right side also
feels weaker than normal and I get
fatigued in the afternoons.
My doctor said it was not a stroke or tia.
Now I am really confused.
What could it be? I was hoping that it
was just a fluke but I am very concerned.
I am scheduled to do some emg tests.
Maybe I have muscular dystrophy?
Does anyone have any idea what it could
be?

Hi there, I used to be a neuro/trauma rn.
If these symptoms are still happening, I
would see a neurologist. If the ct or
mri/mra were negative, then i'd trust
them. But it could be another
neurological disorder.
