Need Assistance (Neurology Question)
Posted: Sun Jul 22, 2007 10:50 am
Please note I am not a crackpot. I was wondering if anyone could help me out or refer to someone who could.
For more than 4 years I have set out on a goal to become ambidexterous in order to be able to become a great basketball player; to that end as I am naturally left handed but forced to use my right hand to write when I was younger (and as such I throw darts and eat with my right), I tried to "improve" my right side and slowly started to activate the muscles on my right starting from my hand and moving up from there. It all went well up til a certain point recently when I passed my shoulder area; seemingly upon activation of shoulder area and down my back, it has caused me problems with brain to the extent described hereunder. I begin to undergo different "experiences" of the world as my most likely left brain became my dominant and my brain was being rewired, experience nausea, balancing problems at times, had a bitter taste in my mouth at times. I seem to have different spatial orientations and all of this seem to have to do with both sides of my brain essentially fight for dominance depending on which side of body make a movement. Moreover, I have experience difficulty in focusing, and cloudiness of my mind.
Please help me as I am extremely concerned for my future; I do not know what my future holds and the prognosis for this. I do not believe I could "deactivate" the should area which would allow my left side (and right brain) to dominate again. Perhaps a surgery to cut some nerves to my right shoulder. As you could see, I am exceedingly concerned and in need of haste help.
