No arm swing

Hi. Does anyone have no arm swing or reduced arm swing? I know its a classic symptom of parkinsons disease, but people with ms can also have no arm swing, it was one of my first symptoms and then i ended up having a limp on the same side. Just thought I’d ask if anyone was the same.

Hi there, thanks for sharing that. I can relate to what you’re describing. I’ve noticed a reduced arm swing on one side too, and at first it really worried me because I wasn’t sure what it meant. It’s interesting how MS can affect movement in subtle ways like that before other symptoms show up. You’re definitely not alone — others have mentioned similar experiences.

How have you been managing it so far? Has your doctor or physio given you any advice or exercises that help with balance or coordination?
