Multiple sclerosis-like features
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some people with Hughes Syndrome develop a syndrome which is very similar to multiple sclerosis where they have numbness or pins and needles, double vision or loss of part of the field of vision, and have difficulty walking. Consequently, one of the main alternative diagnoses in patients with Hughes syndrome is multiple sclerosis, and the clinical team here are continually treating patients who had been previously misdiagnosed with “multiple sclerosis”.
When I first went to my first neuro he asked me if I was having miscarriages. I thought what on Earth does this have to do with my neuropathy? Apparently it's called Hughes syndrome or sticky blood, or antiphospholipid syndrome, and it has alot of neurologic manifestations.
