Angry virus and havoc

hello...I had a very bad virus in 2000 left me with walking difficulties x 3 months ...2011...severe virus...went as far as having an angiogram..all clear but left me fatigued and breathless for 7 months...2010I had left leg weakness
then in 2012 right leg foot and leg drag...after 2 years of twitches and everything else..all MS symptoms...I am using a walker and still have NO diagnosis....so I am beginning to think 'yes' viruses can reek havoc to our systems! good luck to both of us.

I am looking for suggestions and ideas.

I have not been feeling well for quite some time. I had back to back respiratory viruses in the early part of this year. Two months ago I was under a lot of stress, became very fatigued, and never recovered from the fatigue.

Went to GP who said I was having after effects of a virus. He ordered some general blood tests which were normal.

I went back a half week later because I developed imbalance when standing and tingling sensations in my face and extremities. GP still said after effects of virus.

Went to ENT the next week. He diagnosed labyrinthitis was causing the imbalance and gave meds which didn't help.

Twelve days ago saw neurologist who didn't have much to offer yet, except that he didn't think I have MS, but wanted to rule it out. He did say it could be the after effects of a virus.

Chiropractor also says could be the after effects of a virus.

A week ago had brain and c-spine MRI. I am still waiting on results. Neurologist keeps pushing out my appointment and won't discuss results over the phone. This is very frustrating.

Has anyone ever heard of "after effects of a virus" causing these types of symptoms? I cannot find any information online that supports this theory.

Thanks for your help.

Michele
