MS symptoms?

I was diagnosed with anxiety and panic attacks 5 yrs ago. 6 months ago after dizziness spells, lightheadedness and increased anxiety I had an mri of the brain.  It showed lesions on my brain in the parahippocampal and right temporal horn region.  I was put on seizure medication and I still am not convinced that I have seizures.  Medicine doesn't really help.  Recently I have been uncoordinated.  I get dizzy then my limbs and head feel very heavy.  I get very weak.  Always feels like my head is floating yet heavy.  Spots in my left eye and sometimes my right but eye exam ok.  Started waking up with an internal vibration in my body like a cell phone or caffeine high.  Eeg was abnormal with possible seizure activity.  It is starting to control my life.  I will have 2-3 good days then right back to terrible days.  What is wrong with me!!

Hi Teilakeys,
I thought I had posted a reply here last night, but since Idon't see on from me, I must have hit the wrong key!  Anyway, welcome to the MS forum here.

Have you considered pursuing a second opinion since you are not comfortable with being told it is seizure related?  A second opinion would either confirm what you have been told or allow you to pursue other answers.  

And thanks for telling us about the anxiety and panic attacks - it may well be part of why you hear your body so loud and clear with these strange symptoms.  

be well,
Lulu

From my month or so of symptoms, I have most of those. Others will be able to give you a better answer hopefully to help you. My eye has been blurry/blind for 2 weeks or so. I still have vibrations that feels cellphones are wrapped around my chest area, and just drop to my knees. Happens in less than a second. Started with 2 maybe 3 an hour. Last day or so it happens 2-3 times a minute it seems. The doctor working with my eye noticed the nerve in the back of my eye was swollen badly, then he saw the results of the MRI and said it was MS.   I've also been dizzy, numb, limbs fall asleep on me even if they aren't bent for awhile. Hopefully you can find out sooner than later, I hate not having answers and always wondering.
