Female Tiktoker with rare disease was returned by 4 hospitals, grateful to Truong Giang for one reason

Recently, a female Tiktoker said she had a very rare syndrome. Her family went to 4 hospitals but no one accepted her. At the same time, she is grateful to Truong Giang because he encouraged her.

Specifically, a female Tiktoker named Kelly Nguyen said that not long ago, she had a strange disease. Early in the morning after waking up, Kelly Nguyen felt dizzy and had a headache, couldn't lift her arms and legs, and her eyes were blurry and she couldn't see things around her clearly. Her family immediately took her to the hospital for a calcium infusion because they thought she had low calcium.

However, even though she was given more medicine, the female Tiktoker still did not recover to her normal state. She was transferred to a hospital in Ho Chi Minh City for a more detailed examination, but all four hospitals refused. Only at the 5th hospital did they receive treatment. She underwent tests to determine the cause of her illness. Finally, doctors confirmed that Kelly Nguyen had Miller Fisher syndrome.

Miller Fisher syndrome is not common, it is even very rare, but the danger is no less than a stroke. Kelly Nguyen has been in the hospital undergoing treatment for many months with the support of her family. Because her eyesight was impaired and her arms and legs could not move flexibly, Kelly Nguyen could only follow the doctor's instructions, practice physical therapy and practice speaking again from the beginning.

She reported the doctor's words: "Because when we cough, the body will secrete resistance, but if the resistance does not fight the virus that the body has at that time, it will swallow the nervous system. experiencing this syndrome. That's why she had nerve paralysis, leading to her eyes not being able to see, her arms and legs being uncontrollable...".

Luckily, Kelly Nguyen only has a mild form of Miller Fisher disease, her body can automatically recover after 2 months.

Also during that hospital stay, Kelly Nguyen mentioned Truong Giang after a chance visit from Truong Giang. It turns out that while filming the show, the male MC "rescued" a large number of oranges from farmers, so he decided to bring them to the hospital to give to patients for treatment. A female patient who Truong Giang asked after, held her hand and encouraged, was none other than female Tiktoker Kelly Nguyen, so she felt grateful to Truong Giang.

Returning to the above syndrome, according to doctor Nguyen Phuong Trang (Department of Neurology, Tam Anh General Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City), Miller Fisher is a rare neurological syndrome - a variation of Guillain Barre syndrome. Guillain barre has an incidence of about 1-2 cases per 100,000 people and Miller Fisher has even less. The cause of this syndrome is the body's immune response against proteins present on the nerves that control movement, sensation, and functions in the body.

Therefore, in addition to empirical treatment, doctors must research new treatment methods around the world. The first step is symptomatic treatment, treating the feeling of numbness in the limbs, and supporting breathing if respiratory muscles are affected. If the disease becomes severe, a breathing tube (endotracheal) may be needed, heart rate monitoring, and physical therapy may be needed. Next, the patient receives intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG) and/or plasma exchange. IVIG is a medical treatment that helps the body remove proteins (antibodies) that damage nerve fibers.

Dr. Trang added that with appropriate treatment, the disease will regress in a few weeks or less, however, depending on the severity, symptoms sometimes appear for the next few months. Miller Fisher syndrome is usually benign and has a better prognosis for recovery than Guillain Barre. Most patients recover completely, with only a few cases of muscle weakness over the next few years.

Miller Fisher with triad of symptoms: ophthalmoplegia, ataxia, loss of tendon reflexes in the limbs. This syndrome causes weakness of the eye muscles and limbs on both sides, causing the patient to have problems with walking and balance. Some people have weakness from the legs to the arms and face, some have reduced ability to move their arms, legs, and face, and may also have difficulty breathing due to the disease affecting the respiratory muscles.
