MS or something else??

Hello everyone,
I started having wired symptoms off and on for about a year or so. This year in May I starting to have lots of back spasms that I could not function at all. I went to er 5 times just in two first weeks. I was out of work for two month since my abdominal area did not feel great either. That's when I started seen many many doctors. Within those two month I had ct of my pelvic abdominal and chest, colonoscopy and endoscopy, MRI of cervical spine, x-ray of my whole spine, and all types of blood work including ANA reflex titer. All they have found was H Pylori Bacteria in my stomach. I had a two week antibiotic treatment and the bug is confirmed gone. BUT my symptoms lare all still there that I really believe that I might have MS, which is fine I would just like to be diagnosed so I can get treatment
My symptoms: burning lower back and mid back, when mid back burns it goes around my stomach, each time and every time I stand for longer than 2 minutes my lower back, inner tights get numb and travels down to my toes and goes up to my brain with pressure, I get tingling and numbness all over my body especially in the morning with headaches it goes kind of away as the day progresses. My stomach is always bloated and hurts. My muscles feel numb all the time when I touch it, my vision is blurry but mostly with lots of lights, I have balance issues all the time but mainly when I get that numbness when standing. I hate to go to grocery where there is long lines. It feels better when lying down on my back its like half of the symptoms disappear. Muscles that connect neck and shoulder hurt and when putting some pressure I can feel the pain all the way down in my hand. I constantly have those symptoms and I don't know where to go anymore since my doctor thinks I am nuts. I have a different doctor now and he only wants me to do physical therapy. I don't know what to do. I am 30 years old and have a 5 year old to take care of. BTW each time I have these symptoms my eyes get itchy and my eye lids get dark feeling like burned. I look like I was crying.
Also when I breath it feels cold in my lungs and back??
Any advise would be appreciated.
Thank you!
