I have a gastro doctor. had a colonoscopy, and endoscopy done. Neurologist did a brain scan, cervical spine scan, eeg and will be doing an emg on the 14th. Also have double vision along with what is going on. No answers. Haven't seen an endocrinologist. I do have a thyroid disorder. At a loss for how awful I feel and no one so far has found out anything.

Welcome @dablues . I’m so glad you’ve found MayoClinicConnect. As you can see, there are many people who care and want to help. It must be so difficult being sick and having your husband sick, also. Do you have any family nearby? Or good friends who could help set up some support for you? You might also want to contact the social workers/discharge planners at the hospital where your husband is. Explain that you cannot provide care until you find out what’s wrong with you. If he’s been in the hospital for minimum of 3 24hr periods, he should qualify for a 30 day Medicare stay in a rehabilitation center or nursing home. That should give you some time to concentrate on yourself. Will you try these suggestions and then let me know?

@deblues Sounds like you are taking control of your situation ,thats what we all need to do is advocate for ourselves. Look into a Endocrinologist some of it maybe hormonal and this Dr would find out . Good luck
