not really sure where this could go
i'm not sure where exactly to put this to be honest.
i'd like an opinion, based on these, and these symptoms alone, followed by a reconsideration once the back ground has been filled in at some point, tho not in this message alone as it is a long, arduous tale for the reader and for me to write. It will also explain why i do not wish to ask my own doctor about this.
really, really tired all the time. I dont mean like fatigued in the sense of tired after excercise, or tired from excessive sleeping or sloth like behaviour. i mean tired AND weak.
whiplash injury 2 years ago still kind of hurting, probably not helped by excessive time at the computer.
seizures involving loss of fine motor control ( lost co-ordination for basic movements) (some attacks of loss of strength - a few times i've nearly dropped some objects like plates and cups)
spasms varying from single muscle grouping (usually hand/arm) which can spread to whole body and last for around 5 minutes.
loss of general co-ordination: i have lost any of my inbuilt rythms for movement, which all of us usually have, ie a set pattern of movements for walking, running etcetera. i have no rythm to my step, no fixed pattern. sometimes my feet drag.
a sensation of my brain being crushed, yet with no sensation of headache, this happens almost EVERY time i try to lie down anywhere. the sensation is similar to if you are being choked or strangled, or out of breath for some other reason and also happens sometimes when stood or sitting.
it is beginning to happen more and more often when not lying down.
this sensation is ALWAYS accompanied by the sensation of loss of control to some degree, and some sense of visual distortions - pain in eyes, loss of... something. varies.
when lying down it feels as though my body cannot take my own weight. no matter what posture i try.
i cannot lie down on a hard surface, and that used to always help but now it makes it worse.
recently also i feel like i am suffering losses in the ability to learn new things and have suffered memory loss, even when i'm trying to pay attention.
these sensations happen at any time but feel much more intense if exposed to strobe lighting.
the weight has piled on rapidly in the last few months. put on 2 stone i believe at least, but this is due to not going out and excercising as much as i should. these symptoms started a long time ago, and got much worse over the last few months.
any diagnosis you fancy making please make it here, as i'd like the possibilities to be considered to be unbiased by the backstory. as these are my current problems, which may or may not be connected to previous ones.

might be onto something there since these seizure things werent always triggered by strobe lighting, might just have been coincidence, and are usually worsened by lying down.
and since i can remember the incidents and dont completely lose control its most likely not epilepsy. i am starting to think i get what some people have to go through though :|
thanks
