My
disability post anoxic intention myoclonic encethopathy which is a disorder
where there aren’t enough neurotransmitters to muscles causing jerking,
degenerrtive neuromuscular disease which is ,I have an a typical muscle disease
where the immune system attacks the muscles and nerves and it is periodic
progressively getting worse, autonomic system nervous disorder which is Autonomic
nervous system testing showed non proper like
no feeling and asthma.
I was
diagnosed with Asthma at eight years old, post anoxic intention myoclonic
encethopathy at twenty one years old ;and degenerrtive neuromuscular disease as
well as autonomic system nervous disorder at the age of forty two years old.
I had an
asthma many attacks which is how they figured out I had bad asthma. I also have
intention myoclonic encethopathy, I went into a anaphylactic reaction and went
into cardiac arrest she needed to be tracheotomy after that I was in the
hospital another cardiac respiratory arrest six weeks later I needed second tracheotomy.
I was there another six weeks I was worse practically handicapped. No one knew
what was wrong and I was sent home year and a half with a tracheotomy. They
sent me home for about a year and on the news there was a doctor being
interviewed and it was like WOW THAT’S ME meaning this doctor was studying what
I had. We had to wait four months to be treated and
he gave me an experimental drug which work well no studies shown but I was
having babies so they took me off of my medicine and put me on others. 1 out of
300 people have it in America and Canada combined so it is pretty rare.
They found
out I had Degenerrtive Neuromuscular
disease because bad asthma attack. Nurses noticed I was weak in my arms and
legs mostly. Out of concern they called out for a neurologist who noticed I had no gag
reflex they didn’t know so they transferred me to different care and neuro saw
in my scans then realized something was there.
As for my
treatment plan,for asthma I take medications, four times a day nebulizer I need
a nebulizer, I am injected with cortozone three a day, singulaer, I monitor my
oxygen and carbondyoxide saturation levels so I can tell my doctor and I carry
oxygen around
My
treatment plan for Post Anoxic intention myoclonic encethopathy is just
medication
My treatment
plan for Autonomic system nervous disorder and degenerrtive neuromuscular
disease - changed from bypass non-invasive ventilator with oxygen always right
amount of oxygen. IVs cause dehydrate easily and Pic line an IV for two months
Any therapy
I had such as aqua therapy, OT, PT, speech I went to outpatient therapy but it
does not help me much anymore and my doctor agrees with that so I try to stay
active depending on my condition.Hospitalized more times than I can count
almost always intensive care cause I fight them off do not want to go again.It maybe hard but it
made me stronger NEVER hide it. When I am not better at the pace I want to be I
jump in and I do not like asking for help even to this day my kids try to convince
me to ask but I still do not want to unless I desperately need it .
