Feeling lightheaded and out of it, like you're drunk?

Does anyone else ever feel drunk when you are stone cold sober? Last night, I was out with my husband. We had just been to the cinema and we called at McDonald's on the way home for food because we were both hungry. I suddenly felt very nauseousDoes anyone else ever feel drunk when you are stone cold sober? Last night, I was out with my husband. We had just been to the cinema and we called at McDonald's on the way home for food because we were both hungry. I suddenly felt very nauseous, lightheaded and fuzzy headed like I was four or five gins in. I was struggling to remember words and struggle to have a conversation with my husband, and I really didn't feel well at all. I really would not have felt safe to drive home, so luckily my husband was driving. The last time that I felt like this, about three days later, I woke up with extremely blurred vision and that was the start of my second relapse, so now I am a little worried that something is happening because I still don't feel great. I don't feel as bad as yesterday, but I have a low-grade headache, I feel very tired and I am struggling to remember words. I also have a stiff neck and I am more clumsy than normal. My brain is not working at full capacity either. I sat here for a good minute trying to remember the word relapse. My painful numb hands also feel more numb and more painful this morning. I am not on any medication yet because I don't start my Kesimpta until next Friday. I guess I will wait and see what happens but if I do have another relapse then it looks like I have a little warning beforehand which could come in super handy. Has anyone else felt like this or does anyone else have warning signs before they get a relapse? Sorry to always be asking questions, but I am very new to all of this. I am going to call the MS Team at 8.30am when they open

Hi, I can't say that I've anything of this level. I have episodes where I can't remember words or I am more clumsy, but not like what you have described. It's been a long time since I had a relapse, thankfully, so I can't recall how I felt running up to it but something obviously passed a threshold for me to decide it was. Good luck starting your treatment.
