What Is Fibromuscular Dysplasia?
3. Brain
As mentioned, fibromuscular dysplasia will often affect the patient’s brain. More specifically it will be the carotid arteries that are affected. This will result in a number of unwelcome symptoms, including a headache and a pain in the neck area. Patients with fibromuscular dysplasia affecting the brain will experience dizziness sometimes also.
Other symptoms include tinnitus, which is a ringing or buzzing sound in the ears. The patient may also experience numbness and weakness in the limbs and in the facial muscles. Some people will also temporarily lose their vision, and some will find it harder to speak than usual.
