Help Need advice on 16 yr old sons ? symptoms.

I have been noticing that my DS has been having some of the same symptoms that I was trying to deal with way before my dx they have become more pronounced in the last couple of months.

Tremors or shaking of his hands and lately his left leg, he has a slight limp and complains he feels like he is being bitten usually his fingers and arms. I am sure there are other things but he isn't the type to want to complain even when he is so sick he can barely move! WIth him I have always had to guess or make him slow down to give his body a healing start.

I used to be a major multi-tasker just like he tries to be.

I don't let him know I see these things and try not to make a big deal when he does mentions the invisible biting things, even when I see that limp and can tell it bothers him.

I want to be wrong but I also have to know if he might have MS.

Question is how do I talk to his doctor without her thinking I am a paranoid mom?

What's a good way to bring it up?

How would you handle this if it were your child? If you have had to please share how you dealt with it.

I am not hysterical or paranoid I am very concerned.

Thanks in advance.
