I have been dealing with neurological problems for over 12 years. For the past 9 years, I have had single limb paralysis, mostly in the right leg, recurring every 6-8 months, occasionally involving other limbs though. Every limb has been involved at one time or another. I also have a neurogenic bladder, chronic pain/fibromyalgia, foot drop, muscle spasticity, especially in my legs, numbness and tingling in my fee., I have had multiple episodes of optic neuritis (this does not fit the FND diagnosis). Last March, I started having episodes of ascending paralysis that would start with sudden paralysis of my legs, then gradually move up my body until I was completely paralyzed from the neck down, including my ability to swallow and occasionally with respiratory difficulty. I have never had to be intubated but needed oxygen and BIPAP on several occasions. This has happened every 3-4 months since last March. I am currently in a rehab facility with my 5th episode of ascending paralysis. I lose all of my reflexes when I have these episodes (also does not fit FND). I have random elevated antibodies, +ANA, elevated SED rate, chronic anemia, normal brain and spine MRI, + sjogren's antibody but a negative lip biopsy. My doctor is repeating my lip biopsy in a few months because my dry eyes and mouth are getting worse and worse every time she sees me. Since having the ascending paralysis episodes, I have developed a neurogenic bowel, some autonomic nervous system problems such as low BP, idiopathic tachycardia, autonomic dysreflexia. As an FYI, I also have Raynaud's, asthma, severe GERD, chronic constipation, cyclic vomiting and a mild anxiety disorder that is well controlled after I did some counselling.
