HELP, my DIL is having strange symptoms........

This isn't an IBS question but just wanted to know if anyone here has experienced anything similar.

My DIL for the last couple of weeks has been dizzy. She went to the doc and the doc took a blood test and thought it could be thyroid or Anemia or Inner ear problem.

Then a few days later her head started twitching involuntarily. Only for a couple of minutes at a time but several times an hour only when sitting not laying down. This completely freaked my son out so he took her to the ER. The ER doc said it was anxiety and wouldn't do any tests even though my son asked for a CAT scan or MRI to make sure it wasn't serious. Anyway all they could do at that time was go home with anxiety meds.

Then Monday she went to her doc again and she was finally sent for an MRI. I gotta tell you I was so stressed out till we got the results because I thought it could possibly be a brain tumor. Anyway, the MRI came back fine. Otherwise she is feeling fine, maybe a mild headache sometimes and fatigue. She will see a neurologist Friday.

Anyone had any similar experiences to share? Please let me know.

Thanks Barbie
