A member asked:
Does excitotoxicity cause symptoms like tinnitus and visual static? are the treatments anti-epileptics and nmda receptor agonists?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Good question: The full range of symptoms with exitotoxicity is unknown. Your symptoms, (Diarrhea, Palpitations, Vomiting) can also be caused by a broad range of disorders (hyperthryroidism, VIPoma, Porphyrrhea, pheochromocytoma, IBS, abdominal epilepsy). Hopefully you can get to the bottom of things. Not sure what you mean by visual static though.
