Hi! I'm Cecilia. I suffered an acute lithium toxicity from my meds back in mid-August, almost died, went to the E.R., and was diagnosed with lithium-induced encephalopathy (brain damage).

They are now suspecting that I have long-lasting or possibly permanent cerebellar damage from the encephalopathy—which means I have ataxia (lack of coordination), lack of balance, extreme dizziness, muscle spasms, tremors, and memory loss/confusion.

I have a lot of medical bills coming up for medication, the neurologist, and if it's correctable, possibly surgery. Any help would be deeply appreciated—I can offer painting commissions as well if anyone wants to directly message me.
