What Causes Muscle Spasms With Distortion In Vision?
I m a 68 year old male. 173 pounds. I hit the gym 5 days a week, play racquetball and I am part of a weekly rowing crew (8 man). I take Synthroid (last 8 months) and Lipator (2 years). I had a 10 second spasm where my vision was distorted. The world in front of me look like a mismatched jigsaw puzzle. I never loss consciousness, nor did I feel sick. I was momentarily confused. I Sat down and felt fine the last 7 days. What s up?
It could be due to TIA or eye blood vessel problems. I suggest you do not delay and get it looked at by an Ophthalmologist and Neurologist. You may need Carotid doppler study, blood lipid level, blood sugar level and blood pressure measurements. Avoid fatty and junk food, smoking and alcohol. Eat healthy. Exercise by brisk walking for 45 minutes daily.
