Hello there,
i hope you don’t mind me writing to you all with some advice, but I’m concerned.
I am a 26year old female, and I have been suffering with different ailments for about 6 months. I never even thought about MS until someone mentioned a family member who was diagnosed and her Symptoms seemed very much like mine…
i first noticed something wasn’t right in around October time, when I kept getting pins and needles in my hands and feet. Dropped my phone on my face a few times where I would loose grip. I then realised I was getting dull aches all over my body at different times. Legs, arms, ears, in my back especially, kidneys,
i also realised i was getting dizzy spells every so often… Almost feeling drunk in the middle of the day. Vertigo was also becoming a problem. This was starting to get me down and I could feel myself becoming anxious more often.
I also realised that in the past occasionally my right eye takes a while to focus on the morning… But this hasn’t happened very often. And I occasionally find it hard to hold in any gas… Very embarrassing!!
Again in another thing that has become a problem is working in an office, my concentration to look at the words on the screen is a struggle, and I find it hard to say aloud the words I am reading. I get the ‘tip of my tongue’ feeling often when I know what I want to say but am unable to get it out.
Perhaps i I am just over tired… But my doctor doesn’t seem to think this is anything to worry about. I can’t help but think something underlying is going on…
Any advice with diagnoses or early signs would help put my mind at rest
thank you
