My wife is 53 years old. She has arthritis and degenerative disk disease and had a triple fusion in 2010 of her L3,L4 and S1. She has mare stenosis in her neck and back. She takes Norco 4 times a day for pain and she takes a muscle relaxer when needed and an anxiety pill at night to allow her to sleep. She had a small tear in her right rotator cuff and a small tear in her left bicep. She has muscle pain and weakness all over her body. For almost a year now her Thyroid has been messed up. Lately, her TSH has been like .024 - .077. They have lowered her meds to a 50 from 125 that she took for years. She lays in bed most days, all day long because of her pain. She sleeps most of the day. Lately she has been having some paralysis on the left side of her face and left arm. She was also very confused when the first spell happened and I did take her to the emergency room. Her long term memory has went down hill quickly and her short term is bad too. She has trouble driving, because her perception has been off. Many of her problems are on her left side and she constantly falls to her left. Now yesterday she had blood in the stool. Any possible connections between all the problems. Desperate! Thanks.
