MS or am I crazy!
by mollysmomma, Oct 06, 2008 09:23AM
Hi,
I'll just cut to the chase. About two and a half years ago I started getting a weird sensation in the back of my leg that felt like it there was a wet spot, but it was not. I later started to feel like rain drops were falling on my body. I went to the doctor and had an MRI, everything was normal. He put me on paxil for my nerves and after a few weeks everything stopped. I took the paxil for 3 months and felt fine, even had a baby in December, until now. Last month I noticed that while loading groceries both of my legs felt kind of cold and sweatty but they were not. That only lasted a few seconds and went away. I noticed that feeling again several days later when I was getting out of my car and again the next day. I remembed my symtems from before and of course started to freek out. I was getting pin ***** type feelings all over my body and the cold wet feeling came back. I went back to the doc and he said he doesn't think I have MS and since the Paxil worked so well for me last time he put me back on it. Three weeks later I'm am still feeling very scared. I have noticed that my symtems are worse when I'm outside in the hot weather. And my hand are falling asleep and going numb at night. I do feel like I needed to take the Paxil to just deal w/ life in general but I don't think my stress could doing all of these things to my body. Could it? Please help.
