could it be MS

by dia915, Jul 22, 2008 12:54PM
Have had 3 mri's, show 19 white spots on brain, 3 of which are in area that would indicate MS, others are elsewhere in brain. I have had bellspalsy 2 times in the last 5 years. last one was 18 months ago and still have some differences but others would not know. Was rearended 15 months ago and have had neck and back problems. I have had numbness in my hand and arms for years, now have it in my feet when i sit at times. I am fatigued and muscles are fatigued. I get night sweats but have for many years (I am 46 but not menapausal as of yet) I am nausious alot, especially when hungry. I seem to be hungry  alot. I feel faint at times. I do get jumpy muscles at times and charlie horses in leg. my legs ache alot. Had pins and needles in my leg yeterday. I feel stupid at times, very forgetful and it is embarrassing. cant remember what I am talking about at times. I do not have vibrations in head like i hear about, nor do I have white spots on my cervical (do have 2 cist tho on my thryoid) my neuro has thought MS all along, now checkiing for lupus or thryoid problems. I dont belive I have thryroid issues. what do you think, can this be ms? I do get electricity down my right leg at times. (when I am sitting) so you can see much of this can me as easy as nerve probs from accident but how do you expalin the white spots? please tell whta to do and give me some advice as to what to look for or ask my doc. thanks

Lyme disease will cause these symptoms.  Have your blood tested thru IGENEX, a speciality lab in California.  The standard testing isn't accurate.
