@jenniferhunter My Mayo-JAX Cardiologist has ruled out cardiovascular issues - that they are not causing my NESs.
The Mayo-JAX Neurologist treating my Parkinson's does not think that my Parkinson's is causing my NESs.
The EMU that I had in Feb. 2025 at Mayo - JAX Hospital, the Mayo hospital Neurologist's diagnosis was Non-Epileptic Spells, did not call them seizures.
I have not heard of Thoracic Outlet Syndrome but will ask the Mayo Neurologist who I have an appt. with on April 7 about it, plus ask about Cervical Spinal Alignment and request to have my Cervical Spine evaulated and tested for Thoracic Outlet Syndrome.
(Sidenote: regarding my symptoms, I have not experienced any fainting.)
Jennifer, I greatly appreciate your reply, help and the medical issues you mentioned that I could be tested for.
At the age of 84 and after three+ years of dealing & suffering with my "spells" and not able to do absolutely anything, I am desperate to find out what is causing my symptoms, find a treatment plan and have a "qaulity of life".
