'I was sectioned after 'breakdown' - the reality was even more terrifying'
In February, Stacey had just moved to a new flat months on from a devastating break-up when she noticed everything slowing down as she watched the telly.Her worried sister thought all this was real and got her to call in police.
But she started suffering fits and seizures as well as bizarre episodes where she rattled off information and numbers.Nicola said: “There would be five or six hours of the day where she would be someone else. I was really scared.“I told her not to be ridiculous and that we would figure out what was happening.
Nicola reckoned staff got fixated on her break-up and she was sectioned and locked up in Carseview Hospital, Dundee. The chances of catching the auto-immune disease are less than one-in-a-million and only one other person had ever been treated for it at the hospital.Nicola said: “They told me that she would have to be one of the unluckiest people in the world to catch it.“But they agreed she was being treated in the wrong hospital and got her out of there. We were very naive because we thought that was the end.
She got an emergency op and the video above shows her getting back on her feet after weeks of being knocked out.Stacey was sent back to Carseview Hospital and locked in a ward once again.Her memory gradually started coming back and she’s started doing a couple of hours a week at work. And she made sure she got her McDonald’s.
