Default Brain Stem Involvement...

I was getting very dizzy, to the point that I was vomiting. I see spots in front of my eyes. When I go to sleep, my oxygen levels drop signifigantly. My blood pressure behaves erraticly. My doctor suspected a heart problem, but my heart tested out ok, so he did a test where he used a machine to blow air into my ears while he watched my pupils. I got the news yesterday. Even though I haven't any visable lesions on my brain stem..it has somehow been affected by the MS. I was horrified to hear this, but after researching it online, found that brain stem involvement was common with ms

I actually didn't know about this, and I'm wondering if anyone else here has brain stem involvement with their ms, and what the effects are.

This is something totally new to me. The good news is that other than fatigue, and some dizzyness, symptom wise, I feel great.

Any advice at all would be great. Hugs.
