In 2005 I was diagnosed with paroxysmal Artrial Fibrillation and take sotalol and Warfarin, this has had to be increased due to further attacks. In 2006 I had a CVA and lost hearing in my right ear. I have tinnitus too which I have had for as long as I can remember. Since 2005 I have been admitted on 4 occasions with episodes of pins and needles and numbness on the left side. Since these I now have weakness all the time in my left arm and leg. Last 2 episodes have come with a lot of pain and the feeling that somebody is using my arm and leg muscle as a dish cloth and ringing them out, this is worse at night. I also have Cervical Neuropathy and spondylosis and spondylosis in my lower back. All MRI’s including my cerivical have come back normal. After the Cervical mri I was referred to neurosurgeon for suspected trapped nerves but he said it was not worth operating and referred me back to the neurologist. They have confirmed they think I may suffer from Migraine Aura’s without headaches but are aware of the progressive neurological dysfunction over the last few years and this was when they dropped the bomb shell. He said I show symptoms of MS but have normal MRI scans, it never entered my mind it could have anything to do with MS it was always thought to be from the AF and possible blood clots. I left him stunned.
Since then, I have ready this site and many of the posts on the forum and it does ring alarm bells, especially the tiredness, blurred vision, bladder weekness and bowels that take all morning to empty. I have never seen the results of my MRI’s only the doctors conclusions, just wondering where I go next?
