Hi, my name is Grace I am 19yrs old, Born and Raised in Philly. I never really knew much about MS though I do have 2 family members who have it. I have been experiencing numbness, tingling, sciatica, fatigue, double vision, itching and tingling sensation in my skin, tremors, weakness in my arms and legs, balance issues, etc… I went to see my Primary and she said it could be MS, though I do have some other things going on. She ordered a MRI for me but they didn’t really find anything. I went to see a Neurologist and he looked over my scans and suggested I get a another MRI just to be sure and this time lthey are looking at the whole spine. I sometimes I feel like I may not be taken seriously because of my age. But hopefully I can figure out what’s going on with me because this whole process has been tiring and frustrating. But the MRI is at the end of the month so I guess we’ll see.

After taking my almost 2 years old from his crib, my shoulder and back got crazy stabbing pain, I feel like hot pain, and I could not move at all. Not even breathing. I am not sure is this happen because I carry him in a wrong way to it is MS. I got diagnosed in 2013 after I had double vision. Since then I didn’t took any medication. I had another attack on 2018 but I had no symptoms. I am so afraid of this new MS attack. I have little toddlers I have to take care of them :(. How is MS pain?

Hi I'm new to Shift so excuse the babbling I'm 53 and was diagnosed in 1995 was trying as you all are i had two episodes of double vision in 2003 & 04 and was offered Avonex i had to finished work in 2005 and have muddling through with various new things it wasn't going Tooo bad but was told 2022ish it's now Secondary. I honestly felt worse than when first diagnosed... I knew things are bleak but even though it nearly 30 years it's a whole new mountain. Apart from things not working right and luckily not having to go to work but I really don't know where the time goes ???? I've never been a get going kind of person (my partner has always said it's my Malabu thing) but time just seems to wiz by before I've got going. I'm supposed to do physio and day to day things but the time just goes 🙃 thanks x

I haven't officially been diagnosed with m.s. however my mri scan showed T2/flair. M.s was also questioned about 5 years ago. Now my eyesight is failing me (I've worn glasses for years. My eye test has stayed the same) I'm suffering blurred vision, double vision, alot of things have almost like an aura around them. I'm suffering vertigo, can't concentrate, had headache since 13th November. My coordination is all over the place, leg spasms, cramps, pain in my neck and back. I know everyone is different but can anyone relate and please share some insight

Double vision

Had double vision for 5 weeks now. This is the second time this year. My consultant is worried about me, says my MS may be progressing. I'm waiting to see a Neuro-Optemetrist. He is discussing me at an MDT meeting. Medication may need changing to a stem cell treatment? Had my first problem with wal...

Had a relapse? Double vision for 30 minutes..

Yesterday I was watching a dvd with my wife called Hope. It's all about healing naturally, healthy living etc, and about 2/3 of the way through my vision started to blur/double. I stopped the video and it hit me hard about 3 minutes later. Looking at my analogue clock on my wall across the room I co...
