Fatigue often first symptom of MS
Fatigue often first symptom of MS
Months or even years before demyelinating events are recognized, patients later diagnosed with multiple sclerosis often turn up in their doctors' offices complaining of fatigue, a researcher said here.
Among patients receiving MS diagnoses after 2005, records of nearly 30% indicated that they had reported fatigue to their physicians beforehand, said Joseph Berger, MD, of the University of Kentucky in Lexington, in a presentation at the annual meeting of the Consortium of Multiple Sclerosis Centers (CMSC)....

My experience too, aged 12 hit with very unusual fatigue for a few weeks (everyone said 'growing pains') as well as the start of tinnitus.
Age 15 was getting mild foot drop (everyone said 'shin splints').
Age 16 lost my balance for a while (everyone suspected I was worrying) and started having to use the loo at night.
Diagnosed age 25 - 13 years ago now.

Same started in my early 20's. Got brain washed into thinking I was depressed since that's all you see on TV. Went to a psychologist. Are you tired? Does that make you sad that you are tired? Were you active before? OMG U BIPOLAR!!! what a racket that is... Tired various drugs none work. One almost killed me (mild case of Stevens-Johnson) After a year I gave up on that but got I better. (Relapse) Doctor said that is because I am having a manic episode now. Flushed all the pills and never saw her again
I can't even find where that doctor went. I would like to explain what irresponsible asshole she was. I bet she pushed pills on every person that walked through the door and made a nice commission check from their sales rep.
