Tongue fasciculations???!

After a few weeks of off and on feeling almost like my tongue is numb, or I'm talking with something in my mouth, I checked my tongue to see if I was having an allergy and it may be swollen, I noticed it was twitching all over the place... Went the my GP yesterday and he said it was indeed tongue fa...

Question about fatigue and brain fog..

just a quick question about fatigue and brain fog, does yours come on suddenly and just hit you like a brick wall? at different times of the day? not just fatigue but paired with really bad brain fog, like I almost feel drunk.

Re: Confused about gabapentin...

I take it for nerve pain. It only is for nerve pain and works similar to Lyrica. If you do not have nerve pain then why are you taking it?. It does have side effects. That is my question... it seems to stop my feet buzzing, but I'd rather have buzzing feet then be even more tired and foggy.... I ju...

Re: reading lab reports

do you or have you taken prednisone recently? if you're concerned about the values, you can talk to your doctor and see if you could possibly start taking sam-e, it's a supplement that's really good for the liver

Re: gabapentin

I'm in the same boat as you, I am undiagnosed, But have a lot of MS symptoms, and my neurologist started me on gabapentin and I have no pain at all, I know it's also good for some other things but I don't know if it's really worth me taking it?? I haven't got to my full 900mg yet, I know my foot sto...

Re: Question to those with confirmed ms.... negative tests??

Chill out honey certainly, MRI/CSF/SSEPs/VEPs/BAERs are not 100% accurate, but it's better to have non-specific unexplained symptoms than multiple sclerosis. Doctors cannot explain every symptom you have. They are not gods. My advice: 1) keep a healthy diet 2) exercise regularly 3) get a good night...

Should I just give up?

I've been to a few doctors, they have mostly just passed me around to other doctors... I saw one Nero who basically didn't want anything to do with me because I didn't have insurence, said "we've got everything charted", and sent me out the door. I then talked to the nurse and she basicall...
