Sent to Health Experts April 27, 2006 2:09 a.m.

i have a friend who is having seizure like symptoms and they have done all the usual tests and found nothing. sent her home and now she is still having those symptoms but she is also experiencing numbness in her face and extremities and her speech has gone from excellent to poor to the point that she is having to write because she can't get the words out. She is still having the so-called seizures and these new symptoms and i was wondering if u could point me in the right direction with her

REPLIED to Info Request

Please list all the tests that she has had (if you know) as this will allow us to see what has been excluded, or not checked for yet.

Also can you list her current medication, age and any other medical problems.

I will be back online in about 20 hours if no other expert can help you in the meantime.

Regards

she is a 33 year old white female. she has had 2 mri's, 2 eeg's,ct scan and lots of blood work done over the last month all which have come up normal or negative. she is currently not taking any meds but she was on strattera, ambien, trazodone, welbutrin, zoloft, ativan, and quinine.
I have asked the dr.s that have treated her if it is the medication and they all tell me they can't find the problem but she is still seizing and having a lot of other problems associated with this.
If you can help we would be eternally grateful thank you
