Undiagnosed

[Jiggyjon]

Hi, I have been having a problem for last 3-6 months, I did not start keeping a record immediately so may have been having these symptoms longer than I realised. Anyway, the symptoms I have been experiencing is predominantly, when I've been walking, usually more than 100 yards or so I feel like my legs are becoming stiffer, almost like they are concrete setting. My wife has felt my muscles and they do not feel tight. I have also been having a trembling sensation in my leg muscles, trunk and arms, again cannot be seen or felt. Other symptoms I have been experiencing are vague moments, feeling breathless on exertion, and a recent episode of feeling I was unable to move any part of myself except my eyes, however when my wife held my arm up in the air I was able to keep it there. My GP has taken bloods and all are normal so has referred me to Rhumatology, is it likely that these could be symptoms of MS?

I've started keeping a record as the symptoms become more frequent, so hopefully that will help with a diagnosis or referral to appropriate Speciality
Thanks

At this stage of the game, it pays to avoid jumping to conclusions. See what the rheumatologist says and get a referral to a neurologist as well if the issues seem ongoing and/or if the rheumatologist doesn't find anything, though migraines would seem outside that specialty's remit. This early on, fixating on a particular suspicion you have can really mess with your head. Let the pros do their job, keep a list of questions you have and demand CLEAR answers, get copies of your records.

Also I have frequent migraines, they tend to come in 3's and have been having at least 2 episodes (of 3) a month. Also my right wrist I was previously having episodes where it felt like I had sprained my wrist, had nerve conduction study and all was fine a couple of years ago but this has recently started again
