racingheart77 Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 Anyone else get on and off stroke like symptoms? It happens on the right side of my body as well as my right cheek. I have had neurological tests and they came back fine. My right side still has the same strength as my left but it just feels "off" if that makes sense. I get pins and needles and a strange weakness that is not an actual weakness. I have had this for like 2 years now. I had an mri done a while ago because I was sure I was having a stroke but the mri came back fine. Since dysautonomia is a neurlogical problem could this be somehow giving me these symptoms? Anyone in the same boat as as me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizzyGirls Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 There are things in the neuro world that only attack one hemisphere of the brain. Doesn't always have to involve both sides. Have you had an EEG done by a competent tech. A dysautonomia savvy doctor would help in interpreting, as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insertclevernamehere Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 I have this pretty much all of the time, it occasionally takes short breaks and usually gets worse if I'm doing a lot of activity. I had every neurological test under the sun (MRI, EEG, spinal tap, SSEP, NCS), all normal. Neurologist said it's basically like a migraine aura set off by my blood vessels going a bit haywire trying to keep my circulation going, but that it's not dangerous and I shouldn't worry about it.

haugr Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 I used to get it too. I never did get an answer from the doctors, but my assumption now is that it was happening from extremely high vasoconstriction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KiminOrlando Posted April 26, 2018 Report Share Posted April 26, 2018 Have they ruled out Bell's Palsy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
