I've posted a couple questions in the MS group, but I wanted to post a more general question here because I have no clue what's going on with me. In the early stages of tests, and I understand nothing said here should be taken as a diagnosis in any way, but I'm curious of other's experiences with different diseases with symptoms similar to mine. That being said:
Started really noticing 6 months ago, some are relatively new by like a couple months, and it seems to be slowly getting worse.
Balance problems, actually just fell at a restaurant the other day, which is a first and rather embarrassing,
Significant muscle twitches that move entire body parts unwillingly. Right hand, fingers on right hand, forearm, leg, and sometimes my whole body jerks.
Frequent urination - even at night getting up sometimes 3 times in the night.
Weird problems peeing (TMI maybe) like I really have to concentrate to get it out, then when I think I'm done, I stand up and leak a little.
Memory/cognitive problems. Difficulty focusing visually on words/numbers. At work, reading an owed amount to a customer, reading it in my head correct but actually saying it out loud wrong. Mixing up numbers/letters when writing and typing.
My leg goes out from under me when walking
My muscles in my arm, neck, and leg feel tired despite not doing anything to tire them out.
A few times now (and this is the scariest to me) my hand suddenly feels paralyzed. Like I try to move it and just can't will it to do anything. I pick it up with my other hand, it's not numb or anything, just won't move for minutes at a time.
Also, when I'm reaching for things lately, or moving my hand to write something, my hand starts trembling horribly. It's frustrating, and embarrassing when people are around and it happens.
I know this is really long, and I apologize for that... but does this combination of symptoms ring a bell for anyone that experiences it too?
Thanks for reading, and hopefully responding.
