I have recently been to hospital as my legs gave way. I had an mri scan done and a lumber puncture. The mri came back with results saying a bit of my brain is dead and the lp was clear which doesn’t explain why I couldn’t walk, why I get double vision and why I collapsed twice in the past. I was very scared and still am terrified as I don’t know what is wrong with me but my mum is sure it’s ms so told me to ask on the forum. Can anyone advise their symptoms in relation to mine please
hi miss laurae
symptoms vary so much between people with ms so i doubt it will be of any use if i write about my fun and games with ms.
you must be under a consultant neurologist so push for an appointment.
ask if there is any alternative diagnosis that he/she could offer.
then ask for help wth symptom management.
to be honest, that is the main focus of my ms now that the novelty has worn off.
opthalmology could help with your double vision.
physio could help with your legs.
lymes disease is often mistaken for ms and vice versa so ask your consultant about it.
good luck and take care

Thank you carole I think I will push for more tests
Part of your brain is dead? hellfire! That`s alarming!
Have you got a follow up appointment? I definitely think you should be investigated by a neuro.
