RRMS Symptoms & Flare ups

Hi guys, still relatively new here and to MS. Was just curious how long people experience ‘flare ups’ for? I suffer with dizziness and weakness in my legs more than anything and it’s currently been 6 weeks since these flared up again 🫤

Another post about Fampyra

Has any tried Fampyra? If so, does the dizziness go away? I started taking it then had to stop 2 days later because it made me very dizzy. However, it gave me a lot more energy and helped my walking a bit. Please let me know if the dizziness will go away eventually.. 🤞🏼

A little about my story

I'm finally typing this out. I apologize for the length. I just signed up for this Ap, and want to vent about life a little bit. I got diagnosed with RRMS in 2022. Although like I'm sure most of you, I was struggling with mysterious symptoms for years leading up to it. My left hand went numb, li...

Dizziness related to eyes

Hi, I feel like my dizziness, which I’ve been struggling with for 2 years now, stems from my eyes. Many solutions have been tried for the imbalance but no one has ever mentioned anything to do with my eyes. I was diagnosed with MS last May after being treated for vertigo for 18 months, MRIs, lumbar ...

Do I continue...

I finally saw a neurologist. She says she thinks that my right sided numbness (that has been on going for 7 months now) is headache related. This was shocking to me because HA is not a main symtom for me. I have numbness with pins and needles, "hot patches" that come and go in various parts of my ex...

Dizziness

Does anyone else get random dizzy spells? I’ve noticed if I don’t have enough water and electrolytes I get dizzy smells. They are very short but intense. I didn’t know if anybody else experiences this??
