Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I just got a sudden onset of extreme weakness, dizziness, totally out of it. My arm was limp, I didn't have the energy to move. This has happened probably 1/2 a dozen time in the last 2 months. This comes out of nowhere, and I am stuck on the couch and can't move and then it usually subsides in about an hour.
Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum. As you describe, it appears to be the epilepsy, or some deficiency symptom. I advise you to consult a neurologist for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have E.E.G, C.T.scan, and other tests for diagnosis. I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms phenytoin, ranitidine, multivitamins till the diagnosis is established. Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
