Then recently, like 2 months ago, I began experiencing a pinch-type feeling on my body. They almost felt like a tiny single pin pricks. Then that symptom almost disappeared entirely. Now I get random areas of goosebumps. They feel just like goosebumps but I don't see any actual goosebumps. My right ankle now occasionally feels tight. I've had random patches of pain on forearms, hand, back, legs. They'll last about 2 minutes then disappear. I don't know if all these symptoms are related or not. Yes, I do have nerve issues in arms b/c of long periods of laptop use. I also have sciatic issues. I also have had 3 big panic attacks in the last year.

My oldest symptoms (since 2011) that come and go are a tired feeling in the back of my neck, a foggy feeling and a strange itch on my inner thigh.

I did see my general physician and she sort of brushed off MS, but I am not so convinced. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!!


MY ex. family doctor said that " ohhhh that's not MS... even though my CRP was super high and I went to him for couple of times regarding numbness in my hands".. GET A SECOND OPINION!! and don't tell the first doctor that you have seen other doctors regarding this issue.

Have them do an MRI... or at least blood test on measuring ESR & CRP.

Best of luckk!!
