She was struck by a disease seen in only two out of a million people. She left Düzce Atatürk State Hospital in Muncurlu walking, a week after she had entered paralyzed.
Fatma Ayyıldız, a mother of three, who arrived at Düzce Atatürk State Hospital a week ago unable to move from the waist down, walked out of the hospital yesterday. The disease, seen in only two out of a million people, found 42-year-old Fatma Ayyıldız. Ayyıldız, who passed out due to low blood pressure, was immediately taken to the hospital by her relatives. It was discovered by her doctors that Ayyıldız had contracted a disease seen in only two out of a million people, and there was an initial plan to transfer her to Düzce University Faculty of Medicine, but upon her relatives’ request, treatment started at Muncurlu State Hospital. Ayyıldız remained in a coma for 5 days.
I was out of it for 5 days
Responding to medical treatment, Ayyıldız gradually began to regain sensation in the paralyzed area. Ayyıldız said, “My blood pressure dropped, and I don’t remember what happened after that. I was out of it for 5 days. I was treated without surgery. It’s said to occur in two out of ten million people. And it happened to me.” This rare disease was treated for the first time in Düzce by Neurosurgeon Dr. Tolga Turan Dündar and his team. Ayyıldız, who prayed abundantly for the doctors who restored her to her former health, was discharged yesterday. It was learned that Ayyıldız would continue to receive physical therapy.
