This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Community: Knowledge & Support

Hello everyone! I'm a 25 y/o F from Canada. I have been having strange symptoms for a few years now, but always dealt with them individually. It wasn't until a couple weeks ago a smart doctor went through my history and started to group my symptoms together and told me a lot of my symptoms are very similar to MS. I am now being sent to a specialist for further testing. Living in Canada this may take some time to get in. I started getting horrible migraines and night sweats a few years ago, before this I never really got bad headaches. After that my symptoms snowballed from there. dizziness/vertigo and fatigue are my worst symptoms, it was so bad in the summer I fainted and ended up cutting my head open and hurting my knee pretty bad, after this episode I have to be very careful what I do when I'm home alone. I also get numb in my face, double vision, intestinal issues, body twitches, My speech has been really effected to the point people have asked if I have been drinking, and the latest symptom is a tickle feeling in my right leg, it felt like a bug was crawling on me, after a few weeks of that it turned into a strange feeling like someone was running warm water down my leg. I could go on and on with these annoying symptoms. I'm not really sure what to expect for testing besides an MRI but at this point I am willing to do what needs to be done.

Same symptoms I had. My problem was the amalgam(mercury) fillings I had in my mouth. Once I got the amalgams out the symptoms went away. You might want to look into a detoxification program which allows your body to get rid of these toxins.
