NMO Symtpoms

Description:

Patients present with acute, often severe, attacks of blindness and paraparesis or quadriparesis, accompanied by sensory and sphincter impairments. Rarely, patients experience other neurological manifestations, including intractable vomiting and nausea due to inflammation in the medulla, endocrine and sleep disorders due to involvement of the hypothalamus, and attacks of cerebral edema that may cause confusion or coma.
