Can anyone shed some light on what may have happened to me. Back ground - just been to a barn dance (very fun) also with FMS struggling with depression as well at the moment. Had to leave party abruptly which set me on a downer. Hadnt been drinking alcohol. Got home, feeling very wobbly and ‘abit funny’ husband helped me out the car, next thing I know I’m in bed having a massive episode of pain in my leg. Can’t remember anything in between. Was only a few minutes. My husband told me I couldn’t walk properly and was unresponsive like I was very drunk, he had to carry me as i couldn’t hold my self up. The bits I do remember are very blurred, and it’s like it wasn’t me, difficult to explain.
Have been irregular lately with taking cymbalta had severe side effects like brain zaps, depression and mood swings, in the process of getting this back on tract. Could this experience be linked to my fibro, or withdrawal or something completely different. I have had very wobbly episodes like this before but never lost memory of it, and never been completely unresponsive. It had worried me quite a lot, and I was glad I wasn’t alone. Any thoughts?
You could have had a Transient Ischemic Attack, or what most say a mini stroke. Go to your MD ASAP. I have TIA’s every once in a while. M
