ms symptom?

[babymunster]

my husband has ms and a few days ago his body temperature dropped down to 94-95 degrees and his right leg started being harder to control. he also has been vomiting around 20 days a month for the last 3 months. we called his doctor but he's out of town and the replacement doctor said for him to just take some tylenol. my question is, are these symptoms of ms or something else? it's so hard to tell on our end and it's so hard to get into see a neurologist.

The MS has to be diagnosed by a qualified neurologist.
The person with MS can suffer almost any neurological symptom or sign, including changes in sensation (hypoesthesia and paraesthesia), muscle weakness, muscle spasms, or difficulty in moving; difficulties with coordination and balance (ataxia);problems in speech (dysarthria) or swallowing (dysphagia), visual problems (nystagmus, optic neuritis, or diplopia), fatigue, acute or chronic pain,and bladder and bowel difficulties.Cognitive impairment of varying degrees and emotional symptoms of depression or unstable mood are also common.

A diagnosis cannot be made until other possible conditions have been ruled out and there is evidence of demyelinating events separated anatomically and in time.

Just follow the instruction of the Physician till it is an emergency and your neurologist will help you out.
Take care!

These don't sound like MS symptoms at all. MS symptoms tend to progress and not just hit a person all at once. Common beginning MS symptoms include:

Weakness/stiffness in hands, arms, or legs
Dragging feet when walking
Numbness and/or tingling
Lightheadedness or feeling of spinning (vertigo)

These symptoms then develop into more serious pain and discomfort. I'd definitely get your husband checked out, but it certainly doesn't sound like MS. And I've never heard of nausea or vomiting being associated with MS.

Hope this helps, try to relax cause it sounds nothing like MS, but still worth getting analyzed by a professional. God bless.
