Hi, my name is Avalon, I’m 17, and heres my story
Feburary 23rd (I was 16) I woke up with double vision, I went to a walk in clinic and they said to go to the er because the doctor thought I had a brain tumor. I went to the hospital and they set me up in a be for 4 months because they could not find out what was/ is wrong with me. I lost the use of my right hand and couldnt walk either. They diagnosed me with a rare fotm of encephalitis (my mum didnt believe that was the case) My mum, for months, thought I had lyme ( since every summer I go to dunville and longpoint since I was 3) anyways doctors in canada refused to retest me, since they tested me last spring and it was negative. so my mum got a naturopath involved and she sent a blood sample of mine to the states where it came back positive. no doctors in canada will treat me, at least not in my area ( southern ontario) What should I do???
