Probable MS...new to here
Posted: Sun Jun 02, 2013 3:45 pm
Hello!
I am new here. The drs are saying "probably MS" because I have lesions on my spine, but I also have hemangiomas on my spine too. I have not gotten to see the recommended spine dr or neurologist because I do not have insurance. That being said...here are my symptoms:
tremors in hands and legs mostly, sometimes my whole body.
numbness and tingling in arms, face and legs.
muscles spasms
easily injured muscles (I herniated a neck muscle, for example)
My gait is "off" I tend to walk wobbly though my kids say they can't really tell. I work hard to stay on a straight line but it is like I can't fully control where my feet land.
weakness that comes and goes
vision problems that come and go
rare reaction to Neurontin that is consistent with MS
I also have lupus and fibromyalgia. My dr told me to look up MS and we will take it from there. I have many drug and food allergies so it is hard to find a medicine I can actually take. When things get bad enough that I can not function the dr puts me on Prednisone.
Does this sound like MS?
