Chai! Just imagine the kind of doctors MBBS gave certification. I heard the system is so corrupt that once you can pay heavily for the cert, it would be handed to you, while those who know their onion in Medicine are failed yearly. Isn't it unprofessional to give a patient drugs/injection without a diagnosis of what's wrong with the person? You sef played with your life.

GrabHisBalls:
Enough of the suggestions. I know you mean well, but his case seem too serious to self-medicate. He needs to see a professional in a general hospital.

Lay ur hand on the affected area and declare that it's healed. Dont ever think of suicide.

SageMK:



Please don't kill yourself.
Stop thinking about taking your life.

The best way to help yourself is to get on the first bus tomorrow and go to a hospital (not all these clinic!).

I don't think you are reacting to whatever he injected you with because the tinkling sensation & inflammatory pain is a known symptom of neural damage. It make sense considering the fact you experience all this on your right leg (on the limb you were injected?).

What is puzzling though is the fact that you are experiencing the same symptoms on your right hand.

Anyway, Don't give up on life. Seek professional help.

Please where do I get the magnesium and epsom salt mag from ? How many miligrams of magnesium should I consume at once and how many times a day ? How much quantity of epsom salt mag should I add to how much quantity of water ? Did the antibiotic cause you neuropathy or something else?
Thanks for you reply.

Those camp doctors know nothing, I wonder what's d purpose of their housemanship.

Seriously I was sick wen I was in camp, only for me to get to d clinic and was given some trash as drug. I didn't take d drugs tho, knowing fully well d drug had nothing to do with my condition at that moment, just managed till I got back home.

Some nearly died in camp den. Honestly government need to look into this aspect, experienced doctors sud always be sent to camp, those guys can just be assisting them.

I don't even know d importance of the Nysc till now.

Op, please go to a government hospital, if possible, let it be a teaching hospital where we have specialists. I'm sure u wud get solution to it if u can do this. Act fast please.

Mizwisdom:
Those NYSC doctors will use you for experiment, most doctors don't know what they're doing again, all they think of is money. Your only hope is to go to a good general hospital. Speedy recovery

Am a NYSC batch B, stream 1, 2018 corp member.

I was in NYSC permanent orientation camp Mangu, Plateau State for NYSC orientation exercise. After eating launch that was served in camp on the 12-August-2018 I started having severe heartburn, painful urination, abdominal discomfort and also felt like fainting. I took plenty of water that day and went to bed. I woke up the next day which was the day of the camp closing ceremony feeling much worse so I rushed to the camp clinic. I was given ciprofloxacin and metronidazole tablets by a doctor who was a corp member. No lab test was done to ascertain the cause of my problem. I took the tablets but didn't feel better.

As time went on my situation got worse and I struggled to walk so I decided to leave the camp and find a medical facility outside where I could receive proper treatment. When I got to the gate of the camp I was stopped by a police man. He told me I was not allowed to leave the camp until the closing ceremony was over. I told him about my health issue and that I wanted to find a medical facility outside the camp where I could get proper treatment but he still refused to let me leave and insisted that I should use the camp clinic instead. I went back to the camp clinic and there I was given an injection on the right thigh by a doctor who was a corp member.

In the previous days in camp I applied for relocation. It was not granted so I went to pursue the matter. I returned to the camp clinic later to complain that my situation was not improving but I was Ignored. I sat in the consulting room and waited but the doctors acted as if no body was sitting there. I didn't even collect my posting letter that day because I was busy pursuing my health issue. I returned home (to Abuja) that day.

Two weeks later I started having severe burning pain in the leg that was injected. The leg felt very cold but was not cold to the touch. Immediately the pain started I knew it was the injection I received at the NYSC camp that caused it. The pain is very severe in the foot and also in the thigh that was injected. The burning pain has subsequently spread to all parts of my body. I feel it all over my head and my face and its causing me constant headache. The burning pain is the type you have after very hot water pours on your skin. I also have tingling (sensation of being stabbed with pins and needles) in my hands and right foot. My right leg has become very tender to the touch making walking, sitting, and lying with the leg touching a surface very painful.

Recently my right foot has started to go numb on one side. Whenever the pain is very severe I start thinking of ways to take my life. I have been to different hospitals and also took medication but no improvement. The pain is only worsening. I wish for death everyday but death is not coming. I have informed the NYSC Zonal inspector and also LGI (Local Government Inspector) in my place of primary assignment about my situation and also discussed with my LGI in January 2019 about them summoning the corp member doctors who were with us in camp so I could identify the one who injected me and get information about what he injected me but he told me that it will be difficult or almost impossible to do that. I don't know what to do now.

Before all this happened I was planning to venture into business full time. These days I can't even concentrate when performing activities such a studying, thinking, and reflecting because of pain and constant headache. Am i pain 24/7. The best I do when the pain is at peak is manage to sleep. I have lost interest in everything including life. Has any one reading this been in a similar situation or know what I can do now to get out of this situation. I'd like to get your inputs..
Death looks more attractive to me everyday. It seems like the best option available now. I never knew all my dreams and aspirations would be shattered by just one injection shot.

Waiting for your replies.

Thanks.

The burning pain started in the thigh that was injected (the right thigh) two weeks after I received that injection then it moved down the foot. I started having cold sensations in my back later which felt very uncomfortable. After some time it moved up my neck then my head. Then the cold sensation turned into burning pain. This happened in less than three months. I first felt the tingling in my left hand when I woke up one night. Then I started having it more often in both hands and in the right foot.
