five years ago i was in india......I had a motorccident but recovered really well..I had flown through the air and landed on my head...a memory black out shortly afterwards... I did develope severe headaches...six months later someone offered me a chocolate in a restaurant. in India..It appeared to be filled with hash wich I had not known.I passed out after halve an hour.Within no time lost the feeling in my entire body from the neck down....I could not sence my breathing,did not know if i was breathing in or out..I felt waves, like at the seashore and heared them too going towards my head...It was an incredible experience..I still had a body could even speak but not feel anything no temperature nothing at all...It took hours before people brought me to a hospital.I stayed in hospital for four days..I dont know if they emptied my stomache but since than my vocal cord was paralised....and has never returned to normal.when they released me I immedeatly lost all sensation in my body again...They transported me from one hospital to the next for a month..I had severe heartpalpatations now.... felt Iwas suffocating had spasms and nausea so severe..Still they could not find what was wrong.apart frm some hypotension in the frontal lobe....and although I was fighting for my life or to gasp a breath and my heart was simply totally crazy, out of beat and going so fast and skipping beats day and night... they told me it must have been anxiety..wich was outragious..my tongue was swollen and it was so big it would hardly fit within my mouth at the time....I had so many mri s etc...and tests..all they could find was leptospirosis possibly I had it..they said....and in holland they found lyme antibodies...plus the paralised vocal cord...for five years I have been disabled now....I do cycle and walk..but i have many off days and cant work...out of precaution i had some lyme antibiotics and treated myself with herbals since doctors dont want to do this here in the Netherlands...on the long run..but I feel that all my trouble started after having passed ut in India..and after the chocolate I took from that tourist.perhaps I was unconscious too long....My symptoms ever since have been muscle contractions severe heartpalpatations tremors seisures in combination with heartracing at night to the point of almost passing out again...blindness, for 1 full hour once....severe difficulty breathing and pressure in my head. pain in joints .etc.etc..also the regular lymesymptoms in the legs etc. but now thats really mild...I still think its not lyme in my case but the accident in India....last week I hit my head again..I did not fall on the ground but hit my head at a wall accidently..since than I feel severe shortness of breath again..and a crazy feeling in my head no pain but just as if the head is being blocked and there is no normal flow .... for days on end.....wich is worse in warm weather..when it cools down I seem to be much better....I am worried...the docs dont do anything to help me and would not let me have an mri at this stage...since they already invested so much in several catscans mris etc. the last five years....i dont trust it at all, its not a normal breathingdifficulty...it includes the terrible feeling in my head..i had so many strokelike experiences..still noone helps me..
