to carolonthebay: you said you had slurred speech and droopy eyelids before being diagnosed with meningioma. were these symptoms all the time or just at certain times of the day? my husband has these symptoms on occasion often near the end of the day. it's causing a lot of friction in our marriage because to me he seems drunk. when i ask him if he has been drinking he swears that he hasn't. but it sure seems that way to me: slurred speech slightly unsteady droopy eyelids and probably also fatigue. but it's not totally like when he drinks either because he's not as gregarious as when he drinks. i am really concerned and don't know if my husband of 23 years is a closet alcoholic or if there is something more serious going on. he isn't in great shape and doesn't get enough sleep so exhaustion may play a role too. but i can't help but feel in my gut that he has been drinking and lying to me about it. either i'm being a fool or a really horrible wife and either way it's not a good situation. so that's why i've been searching online to see if there are any other medical conditions that could cause these symptoms. any additional details about your situation that might be helpful would be greatly appreciated. thanks.
my son has recently developed droopy eyelids and occassional slurred speech. i am concerned. what may be the problem? . he is age 27. a psychiatrist has prescribed adderall and zoloft along with ambien over the past months. his only official diagnosis is the hyperactive type of adhd. i am very concerned about a possible drug interaction or brain tumor.
