Hello to all, hope you are all well…
Been reading your posts for weeks now and decided it’s time to join you as I am too anxious these days to deal with it on my own and my poor husband is fed up and scared, I think…
It’s all only started 4 weeks ago for me but there is more and more things happening as time goes on- started with tingling in my right leg, I went to see a doctor with shooting pain in my arms at night however (going for cervical scan in a week’s time).
It’s all progressed- my left toe feels slightly numb, my hands feel different ( I get lots of shooting pains through the night). BUT, what’s the most worrying is my wobbliness, not noticeable to a stranger I am sure but I find myself constantly controlling myself and trying to balance right as I move about. It hasn’t stopped my from doing anything so far, I have not been sick of work yet and I am plodding along ( surprisingly) but I know it’s all just a beginning although not a big distraction just yet. I find myself almost waiting for the big hit so it can be dealt with properly as I know the way from cervical scan to brain scan and diagnosis can be very long and the more I read the more I think I want to get the treatment asap, if my worst fears come true.
What would you suggest, I know it’s all unpredictable and none of you will be able to tell me what’s next to come symptoms wise, but what can I expect? I wake up every morning checking if I am still walking ( typical, I know!), so far so good in that respect, I am not weak either, but what is next? I know my question is impossible to answer and I don’t even know what I am asking really, but do I wait for the big hit or do I rush to the doctor with the new symptoms, if cervical scan shows nothing?
Thank you so much for reading. ANY answers will be much appreciated xxx
