Help me figure out what is wrong with me?!


Question: For the past few weeks I've noticed that I am begining to have trouble remembering things(moreso than usual). Also, in conversation, I'll be thinking of a response and say something totally different without meaning to. For example, I was playing Battleship with my cousin and I would mean to say B4 but instead say H8 or something even though I was looking at and thinking about B4.
My eyesight has also diminished greatly within this time, and just today I noticed little white flashes that span the entire upper level of my vision.

It seems like there is a disconnect somewhere in my nervous system because in addition to this I'm always exhausted, regardless of sleep, and my hands tend to shake a bit and I have random muscle twitches, mostly in my upper back, neck and shoulders.

Anyone know what this might be?

dont panic i dont think it is what your eating i suffer with most of these symptoms go see your doctor to put your mind at rest at the end of examination and tests, the doctor finds no structural abnormality in the nervous system to account for your loss of memory,ect he may ask you to see a neuro-psychiatrist to check whether the loss of memory is a consequence of anxiety, tension and other stresses.

all the best
glad i could help it does sound like a bit of anxiety hope you feel better soon try to relax more Report It

    • what it might be... is time to go to the doctor asap. I wouldn't waste time, anything that is nervous system, shouldnt be put off.
    I was thinking lack of concentration or distraction and as I read more I thought this is something you should address with your doctor and not here at Yahoo Answers.

    It could be a number of things. Meningitis, lyme disease, or some other type of infection. I would say go to your doctor ASAP.
    quit using deodorants with antiperspirant in them
    I say if it's causing you concern you need to go to see a doctor. Okay?
    Part of this may be Attention Deficit. You're easily distracted. Part of this may be that you are some how ingesting harmful things.

    Either way I suggest you get a check up from a doctor. Tell them all this. It could be very important to your health.
