Does this sound familiar?

Hello

I am completely numb from my ribs down and have been for about four weeks. I can walk ok but a bit wobbly. Lots of pins and needles in my feet. I had this about two years ago but it went away after about 4 weeks. I didn’t see the neurologist for about 3 months by which time I was back to normal. I had something similar about 4 months ago but it was just my hip that went numb and again it went away eventually.

Even without the numbness, I can be a bit unbalanced now - and my memory has got pretty bad.

I have been referred to a neurologist specialising in ms - my GP thinks that might be the cause and has asked for an urgent appointment but than can mean up to six weeks apparently. Waiting is really difficult!

Have others experienced these symptoms and gone on to be diagnosed with MS?

Thanks

David
