I used to. I’d especially have the fits of laughing for no reason. Now it’s hard for me to laugh or cry... my neurologist thinks it’s a medication, but it started before I was on any medications. Now I just wish I could laugh or cry. I remember I’d get really embarrassed for laughing in public when nothing was funny. I’d always think my doctors appointments were hilarious!
Thanks for replying,my ms nurse said she never heard of it ,but my physio said it was common with ms , it started after I went on steroids,it can be embarrassing it happened in the GP surgery and I had to explain that I was not depressed because I was crying ,but I had no control over my emotions,
