Hello everybody i am new to this site, just joined! Hoping for a few answers im not sure really anyway around 5 years ago both my lower legs from knees down started to ache this went on for a few weeks until an intense burning appeared, it was awful my doc said Fibro gave me gabapentin,after i lost my mum he told me sometimes a trauma can bring these things, i was a bit sceptical but hes my gp we usually take them at their word. So the last 4 weeks things have progressed and quite quickly to where i am now, twitching skin all over legs which has gone to my upper arms, back and my heads full of this weird pressure. This morning as i lay in bed i noticed my right arm stiffen briefly and today my left leg didn’t want to work, like a numb feeling which lasted a few mins, couldn’t feel my foot on the floor, so strange i dont know what to do if this is Ms? But my skin is alive with twitching and my legs muscles seem tender, my mobility is strange too kind of like having to think about what i want them to do, i have to see my Gp Tuesday so i will update then… sorry if my post is all over the place my thinking to do things lately is foggy to say the least.
Thank you for reading

Hello and welcome
I hope your meeting with your GP goes well on Tuesday and he listens to you. Symptoms like that can be from any number of things. I expect they’ll do some of the basic blood tests, to rule obvious things out, such as B12 deficiency etc.
Hi, mmm, could be MS but try not to get fixated on MS.
Look forward to hearing how it goes.
