Hello I have a question that I would appreciate if somebody help me with. I'm 23 years old, and four years ago, I had headaches and my eyes would seem like they were going left and right quickly, but wasnt noticeable to anybody except me when I would focus on an small object for a little while, almost like nystagmus, but not noticeable to anybody else. I also had twitches, and felt jerky sometimes. And sometimes, like if I went to pick up something with my arm, my arm kinda was a bit quicker than I tried to move it. Also, i got a strange feeling sometimes, like a dropping sensation on a roller coaster. Oh, my eyes also took longer to focus on things that were further away. Especially if I was texting or something, then look up at something far away. And my eyes felt weird a lot too. So I went to the optometrist and he looked under the microscope, and said he saw that my eyes were moving left and right a bit. But he said everything looked fine. Then I went to a neurologist, and he said he thought I was getting migraines without the bad pain, just the effects of them, but he ordered an MRI just to be sure, and the MRI was good. All the symptoms went away after a couple months. But now, four years later, all the symptoms are back, except for the headache. Who do I go to about this? Does it sound like MS? But I had a clear MRI? Do I go to a certain kind of eye doctor maybe? Thanks for the help!
