I have your symptoms #1 and 2 all the time. But like Sally said they can also be other things. Diagnosing MS is often a process of eliminating other things. Good luck and come back often to let us know how you are doing. When is your MRI scheduled? If you ask advice here, you will get as many opinions as the number of people who respond. Everyone has a different opinion. I have never had a problem with mine. One time when I was in the hospital I had something like 8 MRIs and it did get kind of tedious. Also If you get to the stage they want to do a spinal tap you will get many opinions. I have had 3 and they were all fine. All of our bodies are made different and all of our MS's are different.
