MS Relapse List

Hi, I was wondering what relapses you guys have had with your MS over the past couple of years. You might be able to remember most of them as I tend to task it to memory as a bad moment with my MS. I shall start with mine: • Collapsing when walking for no reason! • Looking down stretching the back of my neck my legs lost stregth and I would collapse. • Extreme vertigo where no tablet or injection could relieve symptoms. • Sharp pain in my tailbone area every time I walked. • Eye sight overnight got really bad to the point I need to change my glasses to help me see again. • Pain in my left heel of my foot which I couldn't put any weight on it. These are most of what I can recall, what's yours?

There is a definition of a relapse here :- http://www.mssociety.org.uk/what-is-ms/types-of-ms/relapsing-remitting-rrms I'm just wondering whether these instances are just symptoms of existing MS damage that are just "putting in an appearance" to let you know they're still there. We talk about "listening to our body" and it could be that your body is talking to you to tell you that you've been pushing it and you should rest up a bit.

Thanks @Stumbler for the link. These are all relapses listed because each one has happened for 2-6 week at a time. They are in order of occurrence and I was Diagnosed after the Extreme Vertigo instance.
