Your B12 is too low.  Can cause you symptoms such as paresthesias (numb/tingling), balance issues, etc.  Most like to see the b12 levels at 500 and above.  Although some are asymptomatic when they're b12 is lower than 200, most do have symptoms.  I would ask your primary to see if you can receive Vit B12 shots.  They do have pill form, but I do wonder if you would benefit more from the intramuscular shots instead.

Question is, why is your B12 low?  Poor diet and alcohol consumption (considering your 22 years old and "party" is not a stranger to your age group - heh) can contribute to this factor.  

Good luck to you.

I recently read that it can take 2 months or more to build the vitamin D back up in your system - keep on it for a few more weeks. It may not be the only problem, but perhaps it will help with some of your symptoms. The study I read said it's okay to do high doses for up to 6 weeks as you build your levels up, but at 6 weeks you should taper back down to somewhere between 400 iu and 1000 iu per day. Maybe you can discuss that with your doctor at your next visit?

Good luck and feel better.

So glad to see you could get this message over here and gather others' responses.  Supermumm gave you some good things to consider.

Hi and welcome, not sure if you realise or not but this site doesn't have dr's answering questions, so any responses you receive are from people living with MS or in limbo prior to dx.

I personally dont think your sx are consistent with those of MS, or even neurological in causation, though something sounds to be wrong. Your weight according to the charts is just in the obese range, so i'm wondering if diet couldn't be involved in some way, eg blood sugars fluctuating.

Numbness in your whole body is just one example of why your sx are not consistent with MS. If you are stressed out and overly anxious about your health, you can start to hyper focus on sx, making it all worse than it necessarily is, so try to relax and not be so scared.

Hope you get some answers soon............JJ
