So I’m terrified

Not of the diagnosis but of the fact that im about to make the move to stop working all together. I have optic neuropathy in both eyes now and im going blind. I can’t make out most things and driving is a hazard. I’m about to go on short term disability for the next few months to rest my eyes and sp...

MS or disc herniation

Back in 2018 and 2019 I had MRIs done on my spine and brain. In the course of those scans it showed that I had a herniated disc in my neck. My neurologist never told me about this. To keep this short I only found out about this herniated disc because I decided to switch doctors and pull all my medic...

Something feels off

I feel like my attention span isn't what it used to be and I'm more emotional (but not depressed). I feel like I need stimulation but don't have a drive/inspiration to do solo activities... but feel a sort of anxious boredom when I'm not doing something but solo activities don't engage me, i can't m...

Hello, so I have a question or just want anyone’s opinion or help if possible please. I first had optic neuritis in 2021, was put on steroids and eventually got better but did leave some perminent damage. I had my first baby in 2023 and after I started to slow down breast feeding I started to get some interesting symptoms. Every morning my hands would be extremely itchy not like dry skin, but from the inside it was driving me insane it was every day and then I started getting random pain either on the top of my head like a bad bruise or on my back which I even thought was shingles, cause it was so painful to the lightest touch, but there was nothing there I even went to the doctor and in about a week that pain subsided The hand itching and the pain on my head continued though. In January I had noticed signs of optic neuritis happening again, but in my other eye, I went to the doctors right away and they had sent me to the emergency room. I was put on Iv steroids and got an MRI I was there for about four days. They saw some white matter lesions in my brain, but it wasn’t clear because of movement. They then did a spinal tap which came out clear. I had gone home and had to follow up with a neurologist about a week after I got home? I had horrible symptoms I was holding my child and my knees gave out my hands were hurting. I was twitching all the time I could not sit still it was worse when I was laying down at night my body just would not stop moving and at some point I could not feel my foot I felt like it was in an ice bucket. I was extremely tired, and I would get random goosebumps in blotches on my arms for no apparent reason I started getting some bad headaches too I then woke up one morning and I could not lift my left arm. It was like it was asleep. I would get pins and needles and different parts of my body also but the muscle weakness in my left arm was horrible. I could barely hold anything. It is still like this to this day, but not as bad if anybody came up and touched me without me, knowing my whole body would spaz out almost like my reflexes were on high drive I have seen three different neurologist since the first neurologist is convinced I have MS the other two which I actually liked better and our MS specialists keep saying I may have it. They did a repeat of my MRIs and again had some white manner lesions in my brain, but they were identical and not in the usual spots where MS lesions would be so they am holding off on fully diagnosing me and want to wait and repeat and see if there are new lesions in the following months. I have not been able to work since since I have a physical job I have good days and bad days if I get sunburn the very next day my hands feel like they’re in a vice. The pain is horrible. I want to know what everyone thinks do I have MS are they just trying to cover their butts and wait or what

Time to lawyer up?

After a 35-year remission, my MS relapsed in early April. I scheduled an appointment with a neurologist, but the earliest available was weeks away. In the meantime, I reached out to my PCP, who immediately set me up for a three-day Solu-Medrol infusion. I told him that’s what had worked best for me ...

Sry, long time no post...

But long story short, I just left my so-called mom/caregiver. Very emotionally/mentally & sometimes physically abusive situation, she's à malignant narcissist, was controlling everything I did, and I just couldn't take it anymore, ya blame me???
