Here is my story. Back in 2014 while fishing my right eye went blind out of nowhere, that was the scariest moment of my life, but it only lasted like 5 minutes then it all came back to normal. Didnt think much over it after. a year later though my vision got really bad all of a sudden, like blurry long range vision, i almost went to the doctor but it went away on its own after a couple months. Then few months later i started having this INSANE fatigue. like i felt i was gonna pass out, of course i went to the doctor(i was also having ibs at the time, turned out to be probable celiac,still undiagnosed,but developed b12 and folate def).
Anyway the doctor just said i was stressed or anxious. whatever… then in 2017 the right side of my face started feeling numb, especially when i looked down or sat down, i was tired of going to the doc, so i didnt bother figured it would go away which it did for about a year, then it all returned but with twitching, still struggling with this almost daily.
The last couple months tho it has been hell. i keep having this tingling/spider crawling sensation in my upper spine, plus my left leg feel weird, like its about to buckle and i have this shock sensation running down that leg. I also have burning in both my feet.
My doc still think its stress and wont order an MRI… help
Hi, sounds like something is going on. Is there another GP you could see? An MRI may show something, but not necessarily. I have spinal PPMS but it didn’t show for years on any tests nor MRIs. Persistence is the order of the day methinks. Boudsx
I have had the shock feeling in both my legs but mainly my left leg. It stops me in my tracks. I have never mentioned it to my dr. Like a lot of the symptoms is comes and goes.
The eyes can be quite key. Optic Neuritus (sp) is strongly associate with MS and can cause blurred vision. If you have it the optician should be able to tell by the condition of your optic nerve.
I did test myself for lymes through breakspeare clinic it would appear i had met it, but the doctor said it was more i had a co infection, but that was private. my GP tested me twice through the NHS system and it came back negative.
NHS versus very expensive Lymes laboratory in USA hummmm not sure which one would you believe lol.
when i went blind doctor ignored it i went twice. then finally hey ho, after collapsing in 2006 I saw neuro 2007 and had VEP test 2008 which proved i had optical neuritis bilaterally. hence the blindness.
