Hello @ljr316, Welcome to Connect. I wasn't familiar with serum sickness and did a search of Connect and found another member had discussed serum sickness in a post. I'm hoping @3les54 will be able to share what they have learned about serum sickness with you. It's good that you are asking questions and learning as much as you can about the condition. Here are a few articles that may be helpful.

@ljr316 has your doctor suggested any treatments?

I'm moody and sometimes aggressive and uncontrollable and now can't stop swearing
My memory is progressively getting worse and so is my mood and mental health
Frequently crying
Lack off sleep but on zopiclone
No meds working
Incontinent with number 2
Had to have a catheter because I can't go for a wee

Dizzy
Painful eyes and barely have the energy too open them. Painful when shut too
Can't talk properly and forgetting what I say.

Neorologist did reflex tests and found my reflexes over working because my right leg suddenly started shaking. He thought it was the link between my legs and brain weren't working properly.

I'm at loss with these symptoms and I'm seriously at crisis point as I can't deal anymore. 😭

They now think its a mitochondrial problem... Don't think so though 🙁
