1059772 tn?1286655190 I am in the process of being evaluated for multiple sclerosis due to many white spots on my MRI and eye troubles. I have a few things I have noticed for many years but didn't think much about until now: I frequently shudder with a feeling of a chill for a few seconds at a time. Occasionally, I space out for a moment and then come back sometimes in the middle of conversation. I sometimes experience a very sharp stabbing pain in my abdomen that lasts for about 30 seconds.
Avatar m tn One of them said it is all due to ur anxiety ( Cause i do not have any bladder problems and dizziness, numbness tingling all is due to anxiety) but one said its Multiple Sclerosis+ anxiety. My MRI and EEG were clear. Currently i have high frequency of muscle tingling through out my body only when i am lying on bed plus i see double vision of any statement especially ( white in colour) on TV and laptop. Is it MS? Should I start taking Med for MS or just let it be and hope it will go away?
1413587 tn?1289659823 Lesions have orientation and configuration compatible with the clinical diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. I have an appointment with the neurologist next week, but would like to have an idea of how indicative this impression might be to lead to a diagnosis of MS. Any replies would be appreciated.
1410068 tn?1282729167 Hi Limbo land friends, I have finally recieved a confirmed diagnosis that I do in fact have Multiple Sclerosis. So I will be leaving you all.

I will be moving on to the Multiple Sclerosis group now.
Avatar f tn Recent studies In 2005, researchers at the Serono Genetics Institute (SGI) achieved a major milestone in identifying and creating a register of genes involved in Multiple Sclerosis (MS). For the first time in this disease area, researchers identified 80 genes involved in the inflammatory and neuro-degenerative pathways of MS, based on a 40% genome scan comparing the genetic profile of a total of 1,800 people with MS and healthy individuals in different populations.
Avatar n tn It is possible that I had/have undiagnosed multiple sclerosis, and then when I started treatment the interferon kept the MS from progressing?
Avatar f tn //ms.about.com/od/treatments/a/cis_treatment.htm When it comes to side effects of the DMDs, I asked this same question to my neuro before my diagnosis. I made the statement something to the effect of that he had to be careful with my diagnosis because you don't want to put me on medicines because of the side effects . . . and he cut me off and said that if I did have MS, that any side effect that came from the DMD would be tiny in comparison to what the disease could do.
Avatar n tn Vitamin B12 deficiency is associated with peripheral neuropathy, which causes tingling, and numbness, overlapping symptoms of multiple sclerosis. Multiple sclerosis is a chronic demyelinating neurological disorder where the disease phase is characterized by active phase and remissions. It has multiple symptoms and signs and is a diagnosis of exclusion.
695915 tn?1228665952 f only 12 brains and further work needs to be done to validate the studies findings. However, if this work reflects what is actually happening in multiple sclerosis, then its implications are earth shattering: Multiple sclerosis will no longer be an autoimmune disease. A lot of text books are going to have to be rewritten. Treatments that target inflammation will not not addressing the root cause of the diease.
