Does anyone else experience this

Hey everyone☺️ I’m pretty new here. I haven’t been diagnosed, but I think my long list of symptoms align with MS. To make a really long story short, I’ve noticed a decline in my cognitive processing abilities. I don’t have a learning disability or delay. I can read material that are familiar without issues, but when it comes to new material, I can read it, I can see, but can’t understand. It’s been hit and miss, one day I’ll have no problems, the next I feel completely illiterate. My latest “symptom” is looking for things that are right in front of me. I’m unable to find them, but when I ask for assistance others find items without having any problems. I went back to the shelf where the team member picked the item i needed off the shelf, I knew it was there, because it was picked up by the staff member, yet I was unable to see it/find it despite knowing it was there. I feel like I’m losing my mind. I was checked for optical neuritis I think at the beginning of the month and that was negative. I have no idea what’s happening to me, is this a typical symptom for people who are suspected of having MS? Is it permanent? Is it something I need to have assessed before my neurology appointment in June? I have a million and one questions and don’t know where I can get answers. Any insight on how to cope, what to expect would be greatly appreciated🥰

Oh my goodness, you have to wait until June?! I would try to get someone to order a brain and spine MRI so you will have that data to bring to your June appointment. The MRI will show if you have any MS lesions. Hang in there. Waiting is the worst.
