Since about May, I've had a number of strange neurological symptoms primarily effecting my left side. Tingling/burning/prickling sensations in my left foot (especially), throbbing left temple, random lightheaded/dizziness, some vision issues (increased eye floaters), and random muscle aches/stiffness in my left leg.
Finally, after months of being convinced I had MS, I had an MRI done this past week with and without contrast on both my brain and c-spine. The results of this test came back normal and I can't tell you how relieved I am.
Yet here I am, still with a burning sensation in my left foot, still getting a bit light headed. I was presecribed Setraline a month ago but didn't take it as I was concerned with some of the side effects. I guess I better start it as the only thing I can hope to explain these sensations just straight up points to health anxiety. I dont know.
It's just so hard to accept that this could potentially be anxiety and that something sinister isn't in fact going on.. Maybe it's BFS? Idk. I guess this is just my new normal.

Here's a previous thread explaining things further.
If any of you have similar stories I'd love to hear them. It's so hard accepting physical symptoms as something psychosomatic
