quadriparesis

This is an online E log book to discuss our patient's de-identified health data shared after taking his/her/guardian's signed informed consent. 

Here we discuss our individual patient's problems through series of inputs from available global online community of experts with an aim to solve those patient's clinical problems with collective current best evidence based inputs. 

This E log book also reflects my patient-centered online learning portfolio and your valuable inputs on the comment box is welcome.



A 34 year old male patient who is resident of Nalgonda and farmer by occupation came in the casualty with chief complaints of weakness of both lower limbs and partial weakness of upper limbs since 4 days. 
Patient was apparently asymptomatic 4 days back while he was dancing in Ganesh nimarjanum. Patient suddenly fell on the floor due to loss of power in B/L lower limbs which was sudden in onset. He got up with the help of people around him. He has done his routine after he fell with out any problem ( i.e catching objects, mixing food, taking food from plate to his mouth, going to washroom) that day. The next day he felt weakness in his legs as soon as he woke up and took support of his wife to walk till bathroom from his bed ( bathroom is not far from bed). He experienced weakness in his both hands later that day but was able to do his routine with some difficulty. His weakness in both hands and  legs progressed and is unable to walk and get up from squatting posture. Unable to mix food and hold objects, unable to comb hair. 
No h/o tingling and numbness, headache, loss of consciousness, seizures, fever, vomiting, loose stools. 
No deviation of mouth and difficulty in swallowing. 
He was then taken to Nalgonda hospital
where he was said to have hypokalemia and given correction ( for which no documentation was found ). 
Weakness in hands has improved a bit but weakness in legs remained the same. 
He then came to our hospital for further treatment
