MS drunk feeling?
Hello friends,
I apologize for any typos. I woke yesterday and just felt "off", but it worsened throughout the day. I was a pinball down my hallways and loopy. I woke today to the same feeling and cannot walk or talk properly. i sound and act drunk, but I don't drink. Ever.
A Google search told me that is is common in MS people. Is it? I'm pretty concerned but my nuero is closed. Might go to the ER, but if it's not big deal, I don't want to go through the process or MRIs and tests for no reason.
So, have you experienced it? Do you know of someone?
That’s my main symptom so far - when I’m hot / stressed / tired I struggle to find the right words before I speak them and I walk like a drunk. I’ve had a couple of falls as a result, but generally it’s ok unless I have heavy stuff to carry. It goes improve quickly for me though. Hope it does for you too.
Yes, I do experience that. No, I do not go to the ER everyone l every time. What will help, is starting hydrated, and allowing yourself to nap if you are fatigued. Also, start a journal of your symptoms and dates. When that does happen to me, I often start having other symptoms (vision changes, tics and twitches, spasms) Don't be scared. You're full of a lot of tricks that you didn't knew you had. One of them is to bounce back to feeling normal! It's all so confusing sometimes.. but, you've got this. I'm glad you found this group!
