I follow a family in Portugal with DRPLA. A young boy with DRPLA died last month. He presented to the hospital with pain and fever. Neither of which the doctors could control.
May 15 we brought Reggie to the ER with severe pain, kicking and thrashing, and he began to develop a fever in the ER. Tachycardia, tachepnea, fever 103. Not responding to antipyretics. The neurologist diagnosed "thamalalic storming", also called sympathetic storming. We are still in the hospital and we don't know exactly what is going on, but Reggie is improving. All I can document is what we have done.
1. I refused clonidine the medication to treat storming.
2. I started prayer chains that initiated over 100 people praying. Praying for wisdom for me and safety and healing for reggie.
3. I considered refusing all meds, but eventually agreed to his seizures meds.
4. Chiropractor came to hospital. Gave an adjustment and diagnosed subclinical parasites (which was not confirmed with medical testing)
5. Gave oregano oil through the night in the ICU, and simulated the acupuncture point for parasites. (He rested) Started Total Para along with the oregano oil after his 3 rd episode of what they are calling storming. Continue to stimulate the acupuncture point for parasites.
6. All medical testing is normal except KUB showed excessive stool. They gave laxatives. Doctors are saying they are two different issues, but I'm not convinced.
If thamalic storming is the correct diagnoses it's an indication of progression of DRPLA.
Hi Reggie! You're in my prayers buddy!
