Paranoid about children

Does anyone else ever get paranoid about the possibility that maybe you genetically gave your kids a higher chance of getting MS? Every time my kids get pins and needles I get freaked out even though my rational brain knows that all kids get this!! Please tell me I'm not the only paranoid nutter! 😉

Hello! And yes! I also have to try really hard not to worry too much about this. My daughter had vertigo for a while. And pins and needles. Both of which can happen to anyone, as you say. It's hard! Me and my brother both have MS so the familial possibility is real in my mind.

@Gemjum Thanks for this ❤️ I have to stop my mind wandering at symptoms of every childhood illness! But it's a deep rooted fear I sometimes can't shake 🤦🏻‍♀️
