Does anyone know if mini stroke type symptoms can be part of this i llness and what would cause them in CFS if that is the case?
Every morning I usually wake up with numbness in my hands. Because it always disappears on awakening I put it down to Carpal Tunnel. Have had two emergencies to hospital since Friday ....dizzyness over two days and loss of balance then Saturday morning after only being asleep for 3 hours I woke up with the numbness but it began to spread all up and down my left side very strong in my head then I did my usual strenght testing thing because I do get a lot of numbness and I couldn't raise my left arm properly so I dialled ambulance. Apart from my symptoms my observations at hosp ecg were all fine so they left me as querying TIA and let me go after drinking soluble aspirin with a follow up to TIA clinic, and told to take aspirin each day till my appointment. I know because of CFS that my blood circ is poor and I am confused as to what has happend here and if it is a CFS occurence that any one knows of? On coming home I had burning in my head and then ache and still the dizziness and feel that I should have been kept in hospital but Doctor said I was low risk and she wasn't 100% sure if it had been a TIA or not.
Anyone got any tips on how to improve blood circulation when you are immobile?
Thanks all .... Sleepy
