First, let me say BREATHE! Take in some oxygen and breathe. It's an awful lot to take in at once but please know that nothing is urgent at this stage, so you can take a little time to take stock, collect some information and make some valid decisions about your ongoing care. It doesn't matter much whether you start medications this week or next, so don't panic.

Please take a little time to read and ask questions. We're a very friendly lot here and you will always find an understanding ear and a shoulder to lean on.

I hope that helps a little. Sending some understanding cyber hugs .... :hug:

Koala77, Hello & thank you for reminding to Breathe and the for the welcome to NeuroTalk. The crying jags are less by the day...I am sort of a sissy.
I read the message boards till late last night, sooo much to absorb.
Thank you again ! Terri

Welcome Jenna, nice to meet you too. You shouldn't be on TY, if you have an active infection. Try something else.:hug:


Hi Sally, you made me smile regarding the 10/3/12, to be honest with you I couldn't think of anything original for a 'member name' so I came up with my MS diagnosis date, somehow I think this date will be in my head for some time.
Nice to meet you as well !
Hope I am replying to all correctly.

Hello,

I am new to the site. I just posted a thread about pernicious anemia and MS that should be up soon. I am constantly having symptoms and searching for what they are. It is frustrating that MS is so hard to diagnose, because that is what I think I have.

Thanks!
Lola

Hi, I have been having symptoms since June this year. It started with problems with my feet (tingling, burning & pain on walking) My GP diagnosed peripheral neuropathy.
I also developed really itchy arms, to the point where I make them bleed with scratching.
My eyesight has got worse as well. Things look very blured & I can see what looks like little clouds or puffs of smoke with both eyes.

I feel really tierd even when I have had a good nights sleep.

On a few occasions I have not been able to remember simple things, but I do remember within a few seconds. e.g I could not remeber how to plug my sat nav in, in my car...I just didnt know where to plug it in to.

I have been feeling the need to pass urine frequently for three weeks & have been to the dr who said there was blood & bacteria in my urine & gave me antibiotics.These have not worked aftger 4 days, so a urine sample has now been sent to the hospital for analysis.

Had a full blood screen which was all ok.My xrays & ultrasound showed nothing.

I had a nerve conduction test 3 days ago & am waiting for the results. I also see a neurologist on 13th November.

Could this be early signs of MS??? My symptoms have got gradually worse wiht no relapse.

Thanks for reading.....this is all very scarey.

Things havent changed much in the last 40 years. My GP also DXed me with PN in 1974, but he smartly made an appt. for me with a top notch Neuro, who subsequently DXed me with MS (after many tests in the hospital).

Welcome to the MS forum..:hug:

Please let us know what the Neuro says.
