Hello, I have something going on with my body that no one seems to be able to find an answer for. I have light joint pain hroughout my body, but worse in my elbows. I do have diagnosed tennis elbow and am seeing an Orthopedic surgeon. I also have slight anemia, occasional low potassium, and a high SED rate. My concern is this: I get episodes of confusion, lost vision, and stroke-like symptoms that last for several hours. These episodes come every couple of months and while the physical symptoms don t last more that 3-4 hours, they wipe me out for days. The closest thing I could find to fit my symptoms is something called a Sporadic Hemiplegic Migraine , but because it is hard to predict when it is happening and doesn t last long enough to get conclusive results at the doctor s office no one can seem to tell me EXACTLY what is going on with me. One Neurologist got so frustrated with my case that he said he could not help me anymore and said my condition was no big deal because it only happens every couple of months for a few hours like a menstrual cycle . Besides being offensive, the comment unnerved me because I think it is kind of a big deal if I lose my vision or pass out while driving... Can anyone help me figure out what this might be?
