Admin people - any chance it could get the sticky treatment?
Thank you for that post.
I still get the overwhelming feeling I do have MS though, why, just because I have health anxiety does this mean I will never get ill?

When the pulse begins to throb - the brain to think again. The soul to feel the flesh, and the flesh to feel the chain."

All the symptoms are present and its scary plus I'm in the age range :(

Tiredness around the middle of the day 2pm and I always end up falling asleep (except I find it very hard to sleep).
Severe itching of the skin - all the time
Burning skin
Tingling in my hands and feet (and face)
Always getting ill i.e. a cold/sore throat etc
Crawling feeling on my scalp
The feeling of water being thrown over me
Drips of water on my hands and feets when there is nothing there
Slight depersonalisation
I get the ones I've made bold!
You're not alone!
What's the age range?

I also get weakness in my arms, like they're detatched, do you get that?

If it helps anyone, please don't forget that MS is really quite a rare condition - even if you have family members who have it (meaning your own risk of getting it is increased), the chances of developing it are still one in many, many thousands.
My dad had a severe form of MS - it started off as relapsing-remitting, then it developed into the type that progresses rapidly, and within 2 years of diagnosis, he never walked again.
Honestly, don't think yourselves into this stuff; the chances of actually having it are remote and you're tormenting your own minds with the thought. I grew up with the fear of MS because of my dad having it, so I do know how you feel.
Can I just add that people are feeding off each other here and some never even imagined they had MS and now will start thinking they do!
We need to be rational about these things and stop self-diagnosing on here and scaring other people into thinking they have it.
This site is meant to help people suffering with panic and anxiety and not other illnesses that we can no way diagnose!
If you are worried then see a doctor - members on here can not diagnose such things.
