At the moment I have some numb patches not completely numb just a loss of sensitivity one on my are forehead and one near my ankle.. I tremble a little bit, random muscle twitches and sometimes get tingles.. I realise they can all be down to anxiety but I can't as I notice them more in times of high anxiety but MS I cannot get out my head. I haven't been to the doctor as I had an MRI in September and haven't heard of any abnormalities but I received an appointment with a neuro.. This is in January but had me panicked big time!! I rang the hospital and then secretary told me the doc referred me due to my migraines but now I can't get MS fears away!!

It's a rare disease but I know personally two people who have it and know of seven in total!!

What are we doing to ourselves .. I will not google

I just rang my neuro doc to tell him I changed my mind and I want a MRI I can't relax intill I know for sure what's going on with me it will be hard as I can't breath in small spaces but I have to try and get past the fear wish me luck it may be awhile to get a MRI but hope u feel better soon I know it isn't easy

Do you think that because I've had an MRI already over a month ago and haven't heard anything negative yet only themountains thing I should presume the results were okay?

Be brave, the MRI really wasn't that bad time goes quick when your in there. They gave me
Headphones for music and a helmet thing with a mirror so I could see them all as reassurance..

I hope all goes well for you pm me and tell me how it goes etc or I'd you ever need to chat as we have the same fears x
