Hi everyone
I am new to all this, I was diagnosed with primary progressive MS early last year it had taken from 2013, so for the last 5 years ive had symptoms like numbness, creepy crawlies running all over, loss of balance, unable to lift leg, pain in joints etc.
All this time I’ve thought is it me, is it in my head. I have had many MRI, to no avail, they didn’t show anything. I was told at first that I had transverse myelitis, then I was told it was stress, then I was told it was my age and it one of those things, and last of all I was told it was the menopause.
This was the time I saw a new GP, he read the letter and then put pen to paper, and wrote to the neurologist, I then had evoked potentials? This was abnormal, I then saw the original neurologist that I saw in 2013, I was sent for another MRI, (I must flow in the dark), after this I was told progressive MS.
Bye for now
Mandy.
