Its been a long road. Treated aggressively for a while, and my really bad symptoms have left, but I need to address any other infections I may have besides bacteria. Based on these symptoms does it sound like any co-infection(s) to you?
The symptoms I am left with are:
facial flushing/easily warm/ ears feel hot
heightened sensitivity to scent
half my face feels numb (only half at a time)
half my arm feels cold and tingling (only half at a time)
daily headaches (5 out of 10 in terms of pain)
very sore neck, hurts to touch chin to chest
painful and sore shoulders, muscles feel sore
painful costocondritis, in chest and ribs
constant sinus and forehead, throat pain and pressure
Mostly though, it is the neuro stuff that still gets to me. It has always been bad Neuro wise.
I am waiting for PCR blood work to come back soon (but negatives can still be positive). I have a great LLMD who can help, but I wanted to hear from you all- what you connect these symptoms with. A lot of the time it is the patients that can make some of the small connections like this really make sense.
I am SO much much better after doing 11 months of ABX. I was a mess until a year ago. thank you all!

"Mdjunction Tourette Syndrome site has given me the opportunity to share my experience of raising a child with TS, with others, especially those with new diagnosis. Support is essential for families and individuals with tourette as is information. I'm glad to have the opportunity to be there. I also learn as I go as others share their experience and knowledge."
