Default Daughter With Scary Symptom--What To Do?

Okay, I admit that I'm a bit overprotective at times, but as I told my 18 year-old daughter, I'd rather that she was put on ABCs as early as possible if she has MS or probable MS. I don't want her to languish for years while doctors tell her she's crazy and obsessive about weird symptoms and end up disabled like me.

She's had odd neuro-type symptoms before, and I've even taken her to the eye doctor over pains in her eyes (fortunately, negative for ON). But for the last two days she's had an electrical pulse in her leg about every five seconds. It doesn't make her leg jump, but it's there constantly.

Is it time to pursue something with her doctor, or do I just wait this out?

Thanks
