I'm a relatively healthy 20 year old female. I've been experiencing some symptoms that I've convinced myself is MS. Here's my history:
From the time I was a small child, I've always had leg pains. Was tested for everything, doctor said it was growing pains. I still get it. Usually pain in the knees that spreads up or down my leg. Usually only get it when the weather is damp or cold, humid. Was is a car accident about 2 years ago. Hurt my lower back and muscles between shoulder blades. Never had therapy because I didn't have insurance at the time. About 1 month ago, I started getting a sharp pain in my right temple with tingling butning sensation in my cheek. It spread to the left side. Made an appointment with the doctor and she said it was just tension. I also have TMJ. Within 2 days it spread to my arms and hands, then feet and legs. It's not a constant thing though. I get a sporadic tingling in various parts of my body that only lasts for a few minutes at a time. Not really painful. Did have pain in my forearms for about the first 2 days of the symptoms. I'll get it anywhere. My arms, face, legs, feet, hands, and even scalp. Saw doctor again. Had an MRI that came back normal, and bloodwork for diabetes, thyroid, etc...that also came back normal. The doctor thinks it's stress/nerves. I'm very scared that this may be MS. I'm only 20, recently married, and scared to death that something is seriously wrong. I do tend to me an over-anxious person, so I don't know if I'm making it worse for myself. Doctor doesn't think it's MS. I also heard that MS causes eye sight problems. I do get a foginess in my right eye, only when wearing my contacts though. So, I'm not sure if that has anything to do with the rest of my symptoms.
My questions are:
1. Does this sound like MS?
2. Can it be accident-related?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. VERY SCARED.
Sorry this is soo long. Thank you in advance.
