Symptoms are worse... anyone?

[NayNay29]

I still haven't been diagnosed with MS. Still a possiblitly. My symptoms are worsening and thought I would ask you guys about it.

My LF eye has a spot in my field of vision. One OPT. said Macular Edima, one said it wasn't. Horrible eye pain also.

My heels keep going numb and my LT arm, last 2 fingers on LT hand and feet keep getting the tingles. It is pretty bad today.

My dizziness is coming just about everyday now. Use to it was only in my "episodes." Horrible headaches again....

Any suggestions as to what this might be??????

I am still hunting for a good Neuro here. Hopefully soon I will find one. I am going to call the MS Society here in my area today!

Thanks- that helps. I was on Neurontin about a year and a half ago. I remember it working for a while- but that was before my symptoms were this bad.

I think I finally found a good Neuro. We shall see. Hopefully I will hear back tomorrow about an appointment.

I had horrible night sweats last night and all day today I can't get warm. Especially my LT foot! I just haven't felt good at all today. Dizzy spurts- about fell down when answering the door... horrible abdominal pain, too.

Thanks bunches, though. I will definitely check into that again. I will send you good energy as well! Take care and keep in touch.
Peace- Nay

Hey Nay, hang in there. I am also "possible MS". I had quite a problem with dizziness/headaches and tingles/pain, too. So bad I could barely walk some days. Finally my neuro prescriped Gabapentin (Neurontin), which has been amazing for me. I am supposed to work up to 3x day, but I have stayed at 1x in pm for 2 weeks. When I take it during the day it makes me too fuzzy to drive so I am avoiding. But the 1x has helped sooo much.

I have heard other folks post about Tonic water (if you can stomach it - I hate it!) and also bananas for the magnesium. Avoid the urge to take a hot bath because it might make your symptoms worse. Try and get into a neuro asap, I will think good thoughts for you!
