Worried i have MS

Hi all I hope you don't mind me posting here. Apologies if this is long but if i dont share my worries somewhere i might explode! I have suffered migraines all my life, however about 6 weeks ago I had a cluster and on the 3rd day started to get blurred vision as opposed to the usual aura and began to feel weak down one side.lomg story short I went to hospital and they did MRI and CT scan to rule out bleed, stroke, tumour which thankfully they did. I explained that my mother, uncle and younger cousin all had MS and asked them to check for lesions which they did and all was clear there too. They put it down to severe migraine or mild hemiplegic, however the weakness and foot drop has continued. I know it's possible for MS to be missed in the very beginning. It hasn't got any worse and if anything it's improved a little but it all looks so horribly familar. Can anyone advise me if they had a similar experience and if I should be pursuing this so soon? Any guidance would be so appreciated xx

My MS was missed last Alr only because they didn’t know what was causing the weakness in my right leg and blurred vision. Symptoms went away and came back one by one from last summer. I was finally diagnosed in Feb this year. Did you have a brain MRI? I’ve got legions on my brain and spine x
