I am changing neurologist after being unable to trust her with my MS diagnosis. With that being said, I saw her, for the last time yesterday, which she told me that me having dizziness, isn’t a symptom of MS.
Needless to say, this pissed me off as well as having me to second guess myself…so… dizziness is a symptom of MS, correct?
Thank you!!
Sorry, personally I’ve no idea but I see it’s listed on the MS Society and MS Trust websites. If you are so minded you could point this out to her.
I know from experience that vertigo type symptoms and , loss of balance can be a symptom- I get a bit of both. Don’t think I’ve had dizziness (spinning room etc) as such in 18 years of MS
I suspect your neuro might not be an MS specialist.
I always tend to get vertigo type symptoms when having a relapse, effecting my balance and increasing the risk of falling.
I’m lucky to not have vertigo (room doesn’t spin) I had that once.
I have dizzy spills almost everyday. I fall more now then before. I have RRMS.
I made an appointment to see an MS Specialist that lives in the state next to me. There isn’t one where I live. Unfortunately, he’s so busy I can’t get in until Dec 26th
The room doesn’t spin , but when I move my head I fall . It’s a long time to wait for support, hope you manage to get this addressed to enable you to keep safe.
