I'm a 23 year old student, and i've been having odd manifestations for a while, not so bad right now, but they come and go and seem to be getting worse.
I'll be talking to someone and suddenly i'll drop 2 or 3 syllables from what i'm saying. This has happened for a fairly long time, but only occasionally, say when i'm anxious. Then it started happening more, and for a while it was coming on really badly in spells. It would get difficult to keep talking. Something similar with my handwriting--i make a lot of mistakes in my handwriting. I tend to drop letters, even though i'm a good speller and I don't use spellcheck. If i've been writing a lot by hand, the problem diminishes, but it's still there.
Also my memory has always been a little shaky, but there are times when I can't remember the simplest things. Names of really famous actors and musicians, particular words, what I just ordered...
I was convinced it was hypoglycemia, since I tend to get tired after I eat, to the point where I have to avoid eating for a while to focus on my studying.
I talked to my doctor and she didn't seem to think it was hypoglycemia. She said it sounded like some kind of metabolic problem and that I should see a neurologist, but that was just about the time I was moving. I don't know of any neurologists around here and I don't want to spend a lot of money if she was just trying to calm my hypochondria, you know? (i am kind of a hypochondriac.)
also my libido has been diminishing. I tend to get depressed, but i'm not on antidepressants any more and my mood is more stable than ever.
Does anyone know what might be going on?
