Did you ever get a diagnosis?

I completely agree, but for now i think i will wait and see. I'm just sooo tired - i have gone to GP's several times and numerous neuros (5-6 the last few years). I'm in the middle of writing my thesis at the moment and going to the doctors to be told that it's 'just stress' is very thought- and ene...

Thank you both:) i know other things Can cause lhermittes, i have done so much research. I dont think i have any of the other suspects - and given my age, gender and country, ms is def the most likely. Especially considering my Black splot in my left eye and movement phosphenes. Im ok with it honest...

just came back from GP who dismissed the black spot as a floater. It's completely stationary though. I disagree w him, but for now i am too tired to do more. If it was something serious I suppose I would have known by now.

also found this; Muscle spasms or myoclonus of palatal muscles or those of the middle ear (stapedius, tensor tympani) may cause perceptible noise, typically a rhythmic clicking. Such spasms may be idiopathic or caused by tumors, head trauma, and infectious or demyelinating diseases (eg, multiple scl...

I have an appointment with GP tomorrow - they actually seemed concerned that I have a black spot which is a relief. I dont blame the neuro for thinking i'm hysterical. If I seemed more calm and collected at appointments, I would probably have been taken more seriously. But it's hard not to seem fran...

Thank you so so much. I find it so odd that I can be written off as a hypo when i have a blind spot in my left eye (two, but one is tiny.) I can't make that stuff up??? My twitching I guess could be anxiety. But anxiety cant make my feet buzz when I bend my neck - and the fact that this gets worse a...

could low vitamins give me blind spots + ''lhermittes''?

Not more than I already wrote - although I am almost religious about supplements (multi, magnesium, b12, d, zinc, turmeric) and have been for long, so I am not low on anything.

I'm not worried at all actually - I'm just tired/frustrated of black spots in my vision and electrical buzz-buzz-buzzing when i bend my neck (which is much more pronounced after taking a hot shower).

i know im not a doctor, but doesnt that sound very MS-ey??

I have been to en eye doc who couldnt see a cause to my problems - he didnt perform any actual tests though besides blowing in the eye and taking some pictures (which I have learned would not be able to diagnose OP, if it was present). Either way - it is not an 'eye' problem, my eyes themselves are ...

Oh I forgot;

- 2,5 years ago; crazy vertigo like nothing I have ever experienced before. Lasted for weeks. Hasnt come back, thankfully.

So. Long story short; for the last 3 years I have experienced some symptoms, that I believe could be caused by MS. I'm the right age group; 24 year old female, scandinavian. Because of the 'vagueness' and random ways my symptoms have been appearing, I have been pretty much brushed off by neuros. The...
