my daughter has left side spasm with muscle pull and vision deterioration what could it be
hello I had gone through all the data that you have posted I can understand your concern being a mother of 15 year old and facing all this I will try to help in my way the first thing is complete detailed neurological examination is very important in this case due to the presence of a back problem with sensory symptoms for some time and sudden vision deterioration goes in favor of multiple sclerosis is if the clinical examination reveals some abnormalities kindly go ahead for mri magnetic resonance imaging spine along with the brain in is it is common to have such episodes and more on extending the neck and weakness if any may worse with bath in hot water other possibilities include dyselectrolytemia sciatica so kindly consult a neurologist for a detailed neurological examination and discuss possibilities with him and let him decide on further evaluation
