Cause of my MS?

I was talking to my brother and he reminded me of something I hadn't thought about for a while. In 2004 I got very sick. I could barely eat, swallow, or drink. I would break into a very cold sweat and sometimes collapse and almost pass out. I went to see a doctor who immediately sent me to the emergency room. They ran a gamut of blood tests and found nothing and thought perhaps it was some type of virus that they could not find. I was on an IV for two days because I was so severely out of whack. After a week of recovery I began my running again but it has never been quite the same since then, everything has been harder. I can't believe he put the two things(my MS and that sickness) together and I didn't but since he told me I've really been wondering. This is something I'm also going to present to my neuro at my next appt. I know it's too late to go back but I would be curious to know if that could have had any effect on things.
