MS Concern?

[ck2434]

Hello

For about 1 week no ive had this weird felling on the left side of my back that sometimes runs to the front of my body left side under my nipple. The best way to describe it would be a minor sunburn that is irritated when you move. I can't figure out what it is or where it came from.

I know its been one week and hasnt gone away. Im 25 yrs old pretty good health, just tested my blood sugar about an hour after eating a candy bar and a big choc milk and it was 114. Every now and then ill get a goosebumps feeling that runs up to the top of my head on the left side. And when i rub me left arm right above my elbow i feel a tingle/tickle on my left side mid torso. Im going to give it another week to see if it goes away just was curious if this may be any early signs of something a little more serious?

Any help would be great. Thank you!

I'm glad your ailments are improving. But definitely agree to consult your PCP if it does not quickly resolve.

When I was Dx'd with MS, I decided I was going to live in the present and not worry about what might become. However, I definitely agree with Dan that you shouldn't worry about MS until you have more definitive proof.

Good luck and Best Wishes!

Thank you for the responses! It seems that the burning feeling has started to go away a little bit. Had some tingling in my left arm and knee this morning but i think that has to do with me reading up about all this and has to do with a little bit of anxiety. Havent had any rash yet but did see it is possible to have shingles wiithout the rash.

Forgot to add that i did have an eye exam about 3 weks ago and there was nothing wrong there. Not sure if that would have anything to do with it but just thought id mention it. Im going to give it another week and if it is still there i will go get checked out.

This symptom alone could be a host of things, though.  Don't worry about MS until something tells you it's likely.  Sounds like the way a family member described a bout with shingles, quite a few years back.

Hi Ck and welcome to the forum....

I am newly diagnosed with MS so I am not sure I will have much help at all. I will say that numbness was my 1st symptom that I always attributed to a former sports (back) injury or sinuses when it was on my face. When I was having a post partum flare up, the entire left side of my body went numb, much like you are describing.

Do you have any other possible symptoms and what does your PCP say about this?

Good luck and Best Wishes
