Brief Answer:
I recommend you see a Neurologist as soon as possible

Detailed Answer:
Good evening. My name is Dr. Saghafi and I am a neurologist in the XXXXXXX Ohio area.

The symptoms you are relating are of interest to me because they are consistent with a pattern known as "neurological deficits in time and space." What that means is that as a neurologist when I hear someone describe this type of picture my interest is to get with them and start putting the pieces together as to when things first started and how the picture evolved. Did things begin suddenly or kind of "creep up" on the patient? Did the symptoms come on for a brief period of time, completely resolve, and then, suddenly show up in some other location of the body? Almost like a gopher traveling around a bunch of tunnels and sticking its head up here, going back down the hole and coming up somewhere else....perhaps a bad example...but you get the idea.....

This type of pattern of deficits and their evolution make me think of a particular set of disorders or neurological processes that we can loosely refer to as "demyelinating sorts of diseases" or "demyelinating events." People can manifest these symptoms for different reasons, such as side effects from medications, secondary consequences of metabolic or nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, etc. Or these can occur on the basis of autoimmune disease processes that can affect nerves and groups of nerves in the brain, the spinal cord, and even away from the spinal cord in where we call the peripheral nervous system.

Only a well trained neurologist has the best insight into which of these options is most likely based on your history and physical examination which will then, lead him or her to recommend a sequence of testing or diagnostic evaluations geared towards localizing the origin, cause of, and ultimately best interventions or treatments.

Therefore, in my opinion you should try and set up an appointment with a neurologist who can go over these issues with you comprehensively and compassionately.

Thank you for the chance to help out. Happy New Year to you and Good luck!

If this information has been helpful would you do me the favor of some written feedback and a STAR RATING of the answer? STAR RATINGS are very helpful to the doctors because patients pay a lot of attention to a doctor's rating by them when deciding to ask a specific question or to return to him/her for service.

Should you have no further questions or comments to place- CLOSING THE QUERY would be greatly appreciated as well.

And of course, in the future I'm happy to answer more items for you personally by going to the following website and writing to me:

This query has required 60 minutes of physician specific review, research, and final draft documentation for envoy to this patient.
