Hey all, not ms I think?
thought I would try here as I know from experience you are all familiar with very strange neurological goings on and don't know who else to ask! Also, well it's driving me absolutely mad!!!
I seem to have an ms mimic but not sure what yet?
started having spouts of numbness in neck and legs, weird twitches in arms, and sensory issues in areas I would rather not have or discuss!
First neuro appoint was interesting and after brisk reflexes and a babinski sign they put me in an mri for 50 mins! But the report came back nothing spectacular, but one or two dots of high signal! Also Bloods came back normal but with slight positive ANA however, I do have ranaulds! Also slight scoliosis, reversal of cervical lordosis and degenerative disk disease in my L spine blah blah blah!
So was so was reassured and sent back to my GP!
But now? recently I seem to elicit clonus in my ankles by accident! Had what feels like ants crawling down my arms and shooting pain down my legs, tingling in my toes and hypertonic leg muscles??
So it seems my silly weird symptoms are flaring up again without explanation!
And I feel I'm going mad and no one understands?
Hoping you can relate and help me get to the bottom of this!

Hi,
I don't know why but I've just noticed that when I'm drying my hair (quite vigourosly) I'm getting weird tingly sensations all over my body.
I can replicate whenever I rub my scalp.
Has anyone else ever experienced this ?

Hi All
Just a quick query. I think I'm in a relapse as I had some instanced of vertigo two weeks ago (had about 4 -5 episodes all in one morning with nausea and vomiting). Saw the MS nurse the next day and can't find anything so are thinking it may not be MS related. Now I have double vision when I wake up (seems to sort itself out I think) but I also have blurry vision in the left eye. The hospitlal don't think it's serious enough to prescribe steroids and say I should let it run its course.
That I can handle. I have my stick to help with walking since balance is all off and I'm able to get to work fine. But the worrying one is this. Does anyone know why the right side of my tongue feels numb and why food and drink tastes so wrong? I tried some chocolate as I fancied some but after two squares I had to put it away as it tasted revolting.
Any ideas?
Because twice with in an hour it happened to me, i was really worried. Also i was asleep and my body jerked, woke me up yesterday morning and my hip was hurting and still is. My doctor said today that these are ms symptoms and have to make appointment in 3 weeks when he will have had my mri results.
