Been ill for 8+ years. Mainly muscle and joint pain, memory problems, extreme fatigue, intestinal problems (large intestine removed, small intestine blockages), etc. Over past two months started with new symptoms, difficulty breathing, talking, swallowing, loss of voice and hoarseness. Been taken to ER twice, but they did brain scan and lung x-ray which showed nothing. ENT doc says apart from slight bowing of vocal cords, I m ok. Neurologist tested nerves, all ok except for nerves in feet - no response. Huge effort to talk today, and very fatigued. Still working full time.
