I have been dealing with mounting symptoms of MS for what is now my THIRD year. I have been to some of the most renound clinics in the US, with various Doctors playing guesswork with my life. One says, MAYBE, or I THINK, or it ...COULD BE...MS...the others, simply do not know. I feel like my body is turning on me, as the symptoms now, due to an increasing amount of stress, have simply exploded. I have been dealing with the "HEAVY" feeling or tightness in my right side arm and leg for nearly 2 years...however now, there is an EXTREME shift in my personality, and muscle cramps that are turning my feet out. I perhaps, could deal lightly with every symptom, but not this wearing on my personality. I get angry, when there is no reason. I cry for nothing. Then, I am back to what I term...semi normal. It is exhausting, as I simply want to go away, and let my family have peace. I am slated for another MRI in less than 2 weeks, as my new neurologist, states....in the exam, to HIS trained eye, I do not have MS, yet my right side fails each time. My memory, is that of my mom who is 85. My neuro will not say however it is NOT ms, as he does know, that a change in leisons on my brain, could give indicators. 2 years ago, I showed 5. HOW do you find out, what do you do....when it seems EVERY road, is the wrong one, and there is just no answer in sight? I have an acquaintance who is now in a wheelchair, as they guessed her right into the major level of MS. WHAT DO I DO? I have a nursing background, therefore, I know what to ask the Doctors, but I do not think they know, what to answer to me.
FRUSTRATED beyond belief~
