Not sure. . . . Yet....

Hi! I have Ankylosing Spondylitis and Fibromyalgia. About 7 months ago I started to feel foggy and feel as if I had a halo around my head. I kept getting light headed, and my head felt... well, just strange. My legs felt more heavy than normal and my fatigue was bad. I was having trouble getting up @ 4am and being to work @545am like I normally would. My daily 2 hour exercise sessions were becoming difficult. I went to Cleveland Clinic to the neurological department where an MRI was completed of my head, spine & neck. The MRI showed 3 lesions, so I was told not to worry, it’s more than likely caused from my weekly humors injections and to have another MRI in 6 months which will be next month. I haven’t been in humira now for 7 months. I was feeling better, on & off, but this past week the “halo” is back, I’m very weak, and just feel “strange”. My lightheaded feeling only goes away when I lie down. Is it possible I do in fact have MS? Has anybody not been diagnosed with the first MRI????
@Dustygirl

The 'halo' is a good description, my first MRI was when I was 21, I was told it looked like MS, 12 months later the brain lesions were less apparent and so I was told eventually that it wasn't before being diagnosed and starting treatment 4 years after my first MRI. You just have yo trust what they say and not debate it in your head, good luck.

@Stumbler

@ilovecw , I have no knowledge of Ankylosing Spondylitis and Fibromyalgia. However, I have looked up the Humira and this seems to cause no end of problems, including MS! Given what's going on, has your medical team reviewed the use of Humira and approved your stopping this treatment? As to feeling light-headed and strange, this "vertigo" could be caused by an ear infection or some other non-connected condition. Hope this helps
