I have symptoms of:

Numb feeling in left side of face, hand, arm and leg.
Pins and needles in left side of face.

I just feel generally disorientated and weird :(
I think the left side is weaker as well.

I am SO close to googling. I spend every day freaking out about this.

I just need someone to reassure me it's not this,
that they get this too & that this doesn't seem like MS.

I'm sorry, I know I've posted about this before, I just can't hack it anymore.

Have you spoken to your GP about this - I can't remember if you have or not?

I have yeah, she said she doesn't think I have it, I've been twice. She said my symptoms don't seem like MS, but for peace of mind I'm to speak to a neurologist. It's ages away though :(

Can anxiety cause weakness? :(

Every symptom is a symptom of MS.

If you are low on vitamins it can cause symptoms.
B vitamins can cause numbness n pins n needles.
Being low in magnesium can cause weakness.
Try a good multivitamin : )

Basically every symptom of MS can be anxiety....because both affect the Central Nervous System. Myself I'm scared (and convinced) of MS because I have weak left leg, walking seems strange, ache/pain in legs and arms, numbness in left leg mostly but in other limps also, etc

I have these symptoms too Matrix, how long have you had them for and did you see a dr, etc?

it's all to do with anxiety - nothing triggering

I had them for about 4 months. I have seen some doctors for other things, but not for this one. I keep postponing it...

I've read that site also...and hope it's only anxiety
