Sciatica

Does it ever ease up or go away for awhile for anyone? I’ve tried everything I can think of to get some relief. 6 weeks now and the pain is still going strong!

My first episode happened in 1995 when I was in college. It electric shock through my body. Then it was the tingling feeling and numbness to my legs. Then it was leg weakness when I would carry the Landry to the apartment up the stairs. My question to everyone is, during time it was my last year and began to struggle in school. During that exasperation is it possible that brain fog was affecting me. At that time I went to campus clinic and the doctor believed I was suffering from a sciatica nerve. It was the only way he could explain the electrical shock. I was later diagnosed in 2003 RRM. Went to many doctors before 2003 and no could figure out what was wrong with till 2003 with an MRI and a second MRI but this time with contrast.

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.
