As I read through many of these posts my heart sinks lower and lower. I have been experiencing many symptom for a while now and I have gotten very good at blaming them on all sorts of things. At the beginning of the summer my eyes starting bother me, the left more than the right, but it was simply age (or so I thought) and I got reading glasses (that didn't help). The heat this summer seemed unbearable, once again an age thing I decided. i have developed what I like to call "the princess and the pea thing" where my senses seem heightened, I can't stand the feeling of a crumb on the bottom of my foot, it feels like a boulder. Washing my hair makes my arms feel like lead. That restless leg that I had years ago is back and not just at night and not just in my leg.
As I look at the list it seems ridiculous, and there is more. I guess it is the worsening vision part that has got me scared enough to make a doctors appt, that and the fact that my Psychiatrist called me out on it. When he did balance and walking tests I failed miserably. I feel as if I have backed into a corner and my first instinct is to attack rather than ask for help.
