Hi and welcome,

Are your clinical signs normal too? Have you had a spinal MRI? What alternative explanations have you been given for your symptoms and have they all been ruled out too?

Sorry to ask questions but you haven't given anything to suggest MS would be anywhere near the top of your list of potential explanations...JJ

Hello, dont mind the questions. I am currently diagnosed with Ankylosing spondylitis and Fibromylgia. Been on treatment since 2015. Humira and methotraxate for AS and valdoxane for FM. However my Rhumy cannot give me an explanation whats causing my weakness or numb feeling. I have also had a skin biopsy done for a rash I have developed. Result was vasculitis. Now that I am having another episode of weakness on the left side my Rhumy has requested for another Brain and neck scan.

I have had a neck scan done in 2013 to which they found that i had c4,5,6 damaged had a cervical op done.


I am not saying I have or thinking MS just thought someone could help me figure out whats happening.

Just feel lost.
