Can someone help me?

Lately i have been noticing my leg and foot starts to tingle alot, i also have muscle aches in both my legs. I am worried that i could have symptoms of MS starting. I am female almost 30 and i have convinced myself i have MS, i have a doctors appt in a few weeks to talk to him about it. Today i did not have an easy time going to the bathroom and i had the tingling foot thing a few days ago. Could MS symptoms appear like that?

I am sorry on the super crappy wording of my question, i am in a panic.
I just finished a script of biaxin for a wisdom tooth infection 7 day course, no bathroom issue, could it be because of finishing my antibiotic?

Hi and welcome,

Firstly...... you need to focus on stopping the anxiety, start challenging these thoughts now! If you are already convinced you have MS and have escalated into feeling in a panic, you are overly thinking and assuming a lot more than what you know to be true. I think you would really benefit from taking a step back for a moment and try to regain some perspective.

Biaxin is known to cause constipation, so yes Biaxin is probably the most likely cause, though having a wisdom tooth infection could of also temporarily changed your diet enough to cause the constipation, which wouldn't of helped matters either. I'm finding it a bit difficult to work out exactly what has convinced you that your sx's are definitely MS, when there a numerous other and much more common explanations for what you've mentioned too eg circulation, viral infections, disc degeneration etc.  

I would suggest you try to wipe from your mind what you think the problem is, assume absolutely nothing more than you already know to be true (eg you've had an infection that required antibiotics) and discuss 'everything' you are experiencing with your doctor when you see him or her at your next appointment.

Cheers.......JJ

You missed it entirely, i was tyring to say "constipated" without actually saying constipated.

Sorry, in what manner did you not have an easy time going to the bathroom?
Do you refer to locomotion to get yourself to the room?
Maneuvering yourself onto and off of the commode?
OR, do you refer to urine/bladder emptying?  
Or did I miss entirely?
