migraine syndrome

by ozzsome, Feb 12, 2008 12:37PM
This discussion is related to atypical migraine or something more like MS???.


I am a 58 year old woman, for the last 3 year's, I have been having problems with gait,(off and on) headache (not what I would really call severe, most of the time.) cogitive problems, slurred speach, hearing loss,dizziness, fatigue (at times really severe)tremors,(most of the time) vision problems blurred vision and eyedrop which lasted about 5 minutes) Very scary!! I transpose numbers and letters like crazy. I love to read, and this is certainly making it difficult.
I went to a neurophycologist and was tested, scared me badly, sounded like altzhimers to me, very poor spatial score's, etc. I then returned after given meds, cymbalta, Klonipin,depakote,and was retested. I had improved on the testing. I go along and am pretty good, except for occasional headaches and constant tremor, sometimes worse sometimes better, but never truly gone. Sometimes I stagger like a drunk, and am having real  cognitive issues. The neurologist says he thinks I have migraine syndrome, but I think it may be M.S. I had an MRI which showed just 1 round white spot, and repeat Mri after the eyedrop thing  didn't show anything new

Help! I need some advise on what to do. Nothing seems to help
