Feel certain it’s MS as it fits everything I have read.
- left arm and leg feel weak and “dead” 24/7 (but no weakness as far as I know, I am very active and can still do my runs although they ache more than usual after). Terrifying as I know ms tends to strike one side only.
- tingling in left foot in one specific spot of the sole that was there permanently for a week but is now minor and intermittent
- tingling also occurs in other random areas of legs and feet, on both left and right side but these are fleeting and come and go
- left eye feels weird, like I need to keep blinking as otherwise it kind of burns. No change to vision but I’m constantly checking it
- muscle twitches; had one on my left thigh that lasted a couple of hours after a panic attack and then since then I’ve been getting them in other locations of my legs and buttocks but they just last a few seconds. Never had these before in my life
- feel like I’m slurring my words sometimes, although if I am it’s minor and that could be anxiety
- I have type 1 diabetes and scared myself senseless after reading it makes you a lot more susceptible to MS
- I am 33 years old so bang in the age where MS is most common
soooo, based on the above it’s looking bad, right? Waiting for a neuro referral but feeling deflated, anxious and depressed. Also I am male so read that if I do have it then it’s more likely to be the “bad” kind that just gets worse and worse and doesn’t give you remission periods.
I went through the most stressful period of my life 3-4 weeks ago so maybe that’s triggered it. Genuinely feel like my life is over and so depressed
