Well I've been feeling like I've not been myself since November last year. I woke up one Saturday with a numb little finger and my left side of my face was too. I felt quite sick and had really bad dizzy spells when I lent over. Well a week went past where the numbness went but I still didn't feel myself my mind was going blank and I was suffering with DP, which I had about 10 years ago when I was going through a bad patch with anxiety. Anyway I decided to google what was wrong with me and it came up with MS. I then thought what if what I had 10 years ago was MS too. I'm only 24 now so I would have been 13/14. And I'm now at the progressive stage.
Well to this day I have had everyone of these symptoms;
-Brain fog
-Feel like I'm losing my memory
-Feel like I'm not me anymore
-Aching
-Go through periods where my tongue feels burnt
-Left foot feels buzzing
-Right hand feels stiff sometimes
-Teary
-Get periods ( happened twice in May) where for about 5 days I have like a burning sensation all over my body, it's not painful just a weird kind of feeling
-Muscle twitching (all over, both eyes and under nose)
-Prickling feeling in feet and hands
-Get periods where when I walk my legs are walking but my mind is separate
-Keep getting random ( patchy) goosebumps everywhere
-Numbness feeling all over body( but it's not actually numb)
-Feel like I concentrate when I speak
-Dizziness
-Ears popping
-Flashes in vision
-Floaters
-Little fingers on each arm goes dead some nights but are ok when I stretch it out.
They don't all come at once and I only get them now and again. May I add I was diagnosed with Anxiety in March after several blood tests that all showed ok. I was prescribed with Setraline that I haven't actually taken because I read that the side affects are horrible.
I graduated from UNI in June and I am currently doing nothing with my life , I barely go out and I have lost contact with all my friends. All I do is live at home and watch each day go by. I don't know if this is just anxiety because I'm not doing anything and I have this thought I have MS in my head it's what's giving me these symptoms. But it just doesn't feel like Anxiety could give me all these symptoms. It's been constant since last November. Hoping for some peace of mind from anyone in the same boat really.
