Avatar f tn I called me doctor and we went over my symptoms. She believes that I am in a relapse and I am scheduled to go in tomorrow to speak about going on Medications. Since Monday I have a new symptom and I am not sure if it is MS related or from something else. I have been having severe pain and restless legs. Nothing helps except my boyfriend's left over vicodin which just puts me to sleep so I cannot feel the pain. Is this something that is MS related?
Avatar f tn I posted a question about my issue in neurology hoping it could be a pinched nerve but the dr kinda directed that a pinched nerve wouldnt be in both legs and described MS to me so i am extremely scared now...I have had both tingling in both my legs and feet, cold extremities that arent able to warm, feeling like im shivering on the inside, short term memory loss, and weakness in legs....i am really hoping that this could be anxiety or something but i just dont feel like it is....

Avatar n tn Last saturday, my 12 year old daughter complained that her left cheek developed a "cracking" feeling, and began to hurt. Her opposite cheek began to hurt a minute later, and then her nose went numb. Within 5 minutes, she was fine. It happened again later that night. The following day, sunday, she complained about her cheeks going numb or hurting a couple of times throughout the day. She described the numbness as feeling like she doesn't have a cheek.
Avatar f tn The symptoms of multiple sclerosis are loss of balance, muscle spasms, numbness in any area, problems with walking and coordination, tremors in one or more arms and legs. Bowel and bladder symptoms include frequency of micturition, urine leakage, eye symptoms like double vision uncontrollable rapid eye movements, facial pain, painful muscle spasms, tingling, burning in arms or legs, depression, dizziness, hearing loss, fatigue etc.
Avatar f tn So we think the symptoms are from the MS. My brother has MS too and had his diagnosis for over 10 years. I asked him did he get the numbness. He said yes, and everybodys MS was different with different episodal events. Im thinking now about a podiatrist to see if neuropathy is caused by another issue.
Avatar f tn Hi, I have RR MS, and for the last several months I've been struggling with spasming in my legs. The only (usually) reliable remedy I've found has been to walk. This happens as much as 9 times a night, wreaking havoc on my sleep cycle. Does anyone have any ideas on how to stop or treat this? I have increased my magnesium intake, my vitamin B intake, and ensure that I'm drinking at least 64 oz liquids, all without any effect.
Avatar f tn And yes, Jem, my weakness in my arms and legs is bilateral - well, OK, maybe a little more in my left...but basically bilateral! So sorry you're going through this cr@p!
Avatar f tn I also saw an MS specialist for the numbness and tingling in feet and legs. He does not feel that this is related to MS. He wants me to come back in September. He gave me a diagnosis of very mild case of transverse myletisis although their were no lesions found in my spine. First neurologist feels that it was the Tarlov cysts found up and down my spine that caused the numbness and tingling. I had gone back to exercising at the time and he feels that I inflamed the cysts.
Avatar f tn I’ve always had muscle weakness in my legs that seems to get progressively worse off and on. Within the last week it felt like my leg was going to give out 3 times. I have another appt with my MS neuro on 8 April and I’m going to bring it up to him. Does anyone else experience this? I imagine it’s related to MS, but maybe not….. ??? Sorry for being a repeat poster lately…. Thanks!
Avatar f tn The twitches I have are in my legs and arms but the facicultions are mostly in my calves of my legs and ankles. You say you are in limbo also. What are your symptoms and what tests were done with you?
Avatar f tn Hi and welcome to our little MS community, MS has no age restriction, although there are some doctors not as familiar with MS today, who still have the 20-40 age group tick box ideology of years ago. The common age group being 'diagnosed' with MS is between 20-50, but people can of had MS for any number of years with out knowing, that's what was causing these odd things to keep happening every now and then...
482441 tn?1235230458 You may have a couple of other things going on, but alot of what you have described to me, in the form of pain in one eye, more leg pain on one side, etc., remind more of symptoms of MS. Do you have MS? I don't know that, since I am not a doctor. You do need more of a follow up in your testing. If you have relapses and remission of symptoms, I would think more along the lines of something neurological. Especially possible MS.
Avatar f tn ve had numbness and tingling in arms and legs note i have chiari malformation 1 so this seemed normal but recently I've had muscle twitches Plus im really unbalanced alot of symptoms shared with chiari but id like to know what you think. Also im 15 and do not get alot of vitamin D which is a rumored cause.
Avatar f tn I have been having symptoms of MS. I got these off the internet: slow word recall, abnormal pupil responses, infrequent bowel movements, short term memory loss, vision problems, problems empying my bladder, unbalanced and incontinence (at night when i get out of bed to go to the bathroom) I am on Humira. It lowers your immune system and can cause MS.The first thing I noticed was my vision seemed to have changed over night.
Avatar f tn Because MS attacks the central nervous system (CNS) symptoms can occur in any part of the body controlled by the CNS, which is to say everywhere. This leads to MS having many mimics. These mimics are often conditions that attack specific areas of the body, like meralgia parasthetica. They also include more generalized conditions like fatigue, which is common to both MS and Lyme disease. MS is a clinical diagnosis.
Avatar n tn but I still have a problem waking up during the night. I have pretty much learned to deal with the pain in my legs. I have an appt this coming week with another Prime care provider and I will talk to her about seeing a neurologist. I just want to rule out things like MS, or ALS, Hughes syndrome.... ect.. ect.. I dont want to wake up one day and not be able to use a part of my body because I play the drums and my drums are my passion.
Avatar m tn I have a lesion in my spine at breast level. Dr told me I have MS, the only symptoms is leg numbness more in rt leg then left. I have no other symptoms and can still hit golf ball 300 yards. just numbness in legs. When I drink wine they even get more numb. What advice can you give me?

Avatar f tn Do you have to have a lumbar puncture test for a definite diagnosis of MS? I am really scared and hate the feeling in my legs. Thank you for any information that you might have. This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/929251'>Do I have MS?</a>.
Avatar m tn To me, you do have symptoms that a Neuro would take great interest in. Sounds to me lots of guys w/MS present w/numbness in legs and their legs giving out on them, so I'm not surprised to hear it. I hope you are in with a good doctor. Stay w/us, let us know what else you have ordered up.
