I'm starting to feel concerned about my health because I've been experiencing a heavy tongue and slurred speech sometimes. I've already checked for any kind of stroke, and thankfully, that came back negative. I've been feeling quite distraught and restless occasionally. I used to be diagnosed with sleep apnea, but I've been using a CPAP machine, and my sleep has improved quite a lot since then. Despite that, I sometimes notice muscle weakness in my thighs and calves, and I also have lower back pain. An MRI showed that I have a bulging disc that's pressing on my nerves. I'm really perplexed about the heavy tongue and would love some insights on why that might be happening.

View allMy child was just diagnosed with mitochondrial progressive external ophthalmoplegia and they're recommending surgery for drooping eyelids. How bad does this condition usually get over time? Could it become fatal or lead to complete vision loss? I know there's no cure yet for this rare disorder, but I'm really worried about how it progresses and what to expect in the later stages. Can you give some insight on what the final stages might look like?
Mitochondrial disorders progress slowly—eyelid surgery may help vision, but long-term effects vary—regular neuro follow-up is key.
