Default Where are you r lesions and how are they affecting you?

Just a little informal poll. My brain is clear (with the exception of a large calcification on my pons) and I am waiting on approval from insurance to do a C-spine MRI.

My symptoms range from tingling, shock feelings, burning of the extremities at night. Pins and needles feeling of my feet when I first get out of bed. Cramps, twitches and poor balance and coordination. I have a hyper reflex on the right knee, and most of my issues are on the right side, with the exception of the tingling/crawling feeling. That is my whole back and scalp. I also have extreme fatigue and muscle fatigue with tremors upon doing anything other than relaxing. Walking, cleaning, writing, holding the baby, etc is very hard for me.

I am sure there are more things I am forgetting, but those are the biggie.

DX: as of now is "Possible MS" based on neuro exam and history. Testing is all coming up withing the month.
