Symptom narrative

Mom got a call from the school nurse on Wednesday, April 30th at 11am stating her son was having a hard time walking, he was dizzy, nauseous, had a headache and vision was blurry. He has a hx of migraines, so Mom thought it was that. He then started complaining that he had severe neck pain, eye pain, jaw pain and numbness in fingers and told her that he felt like he ?was being stabbed in the brain?. Mom took him to their PCP, and they recommended he go to hospital. When they got to hospital, Mom said the doctor thought this was a side effect of his ADHD med, Adderall, but Mom said he had been on the med for over a year. She told them about the vaccines he had gotten on Monday, April 28th and they said he had just probably developed a tic and that tics can develop at any time. By this time, her son had become agitated, had the shakes and uncontrolled jaw movement. He did not have a fever. They sent them home and told her to give him Benedryl, Advil and take Guaifenesin at bedtime. No CT scan or MRI were done. Mom asked about Myasthenia Gravis and the doctor told her that he did not have this. I did reach out to Mom on May 6th, to see how her son was doing, and she said the involuntary jaw movement lasted until Saturday, May 3rd but everything is now back to normal.
