Hi :) I May have MS
Posted: Thu Sep 05, 2013 8:36 am
Hello All,
I just thought I would sign up here because I may need some advice here and there. My name is Ashley and I am a 26 year old female from Colorado. For the past four months, life has been pretty different for me, and I have spent a lot of time in the ER as well as doctor's visits, with no diagnosis yet. Four months ago, What started out with blood pressure drops, dizziness, fainting, and headaches has now turned into bladder incontinence, uncontrollable shaking, horrible headaches, sleep deprivation, loss of vision, and sickness to the heat. My biggest issue has been fainting, along with uncontrollable shaking, it is definitley effecting my quality of life. For the first few months, the doctor's were pushing it off as anxiety and vasovagal syncope-which is a malfunction of a nerve that regulates how open or closed your veins are supposed to be. Now with the newer symptoms, they are going to be giving me my first brain MRI and have not ruled out MS. I was just wondering, did anyone else go though these type of symptoms before diagnosis?
Thank you all and it's nice to meet you.
