It could be MS......but MS mimics a number of other conditions. It would probably be in your best interest to see a Neurologist and give them a list of all the symptoms you've been having. They'll probably want to do several tests to try and determine what's going on....whether it's MS or something else.

Since you've been having a number of different symptoms it would be good to keep a journal of what symptom you're having and how long they last. This way your Neuro can have a time line to refer to.

Lots of people have to wait a long time for a definite diagnosis of MS. Some get their diagnosis right away. Everyone's different - and MS affects everyone differently.
