Hi I'm pre diagnosis and petrified of another episode while I wait.

I've struggled with alot of unexplained health problems for well over 15 years. I've been dismissed by more doctors than I can count because I have anxiety. Unfortunately in December 2024 I had the worst "leg attack" I've had in years which left me wheelchair bound. The hospital told me that they believe I have ms due to all of my symptoms but I need an mri to confirm, then put me on a 5 month waiting list. I'm 3 months in but my legs keep tingling and spasming and although I've re-taught myself to walk again (still using walking aids) I'm petrified of another attack. How do you manage the fear of reoccurring episode's? I have stopped doing things I enjoy, going out, meeting with my friends, because I'm so scared I will trigger an attack somehow. If anyone has Ms /ms symptoms and anxiety, do you have any tips?

Sounds like my start. Take it slow. I have PPMS (stays with me) so in a wheelchair full time now. Robbed me of both legs and right arm. I learned I could still paint with my left hand.
