Weakness in legs

I have multiple symptoms such as numbness and tingling in both legs, weakness in both legs and fingers, difficulty walking, horrible balance, abnormal sensations in legs, and fatigue.  I have had an MRI of the Back and Brain both have come back normal.  Anyone have a clue what this could be?

Hi there. These symptoms could be due to a chronic degenerative neurological disease  called multiple sclerosis, where you have tingling, numbness , weakness of limbs, fatigue, cognitive dysfunction, visual blurring and distortion etc.  you need to show yourself to the neurologist again and get this ruled out clinically,  cerebrospinal fluid examination showing oligoclonal bands, MRI brain showing white plaques of white matter demyelination.  Hope this helps. Take care.

Which part of your back was the MRI done on?

Was the MRI of your brain done WITH contrast?  

Any NCS and/or EMG testing done?
