In february I had an itch on my spine (about halfway up my back), and by March it had turned into a dry sort of patch... it doesnt itch all the time but every couple of days or so it will really itch, so i obviously scratch it which I know made it worse as it went all red last month. Its now just a dry patch (not red or anything) and it itches every couple of days or so for about ten minutes, but can be on & off throughout the day. I have alot of symptoms of MS like pins and needles in hands and fingers, random numbness in certain patches of skin in my body, but mostly hands and arms. I get alot of dizziness too. I just cant help but think i have this :( Would MS have been picked up on my blod tests? Ive had so many blood tests and all normal. I think I need an MRI to rule out MS. But im so convinced i have it im so worried about the results. Im 22 with an 18month old baby boy so u can imagine how scared i am :(
