Hello, new to the forum. Have MS and first episode was about 2 years ago, put me in the hospital for 4 days and then lots of tests afterwards.

Now having more symptoms on a daily basis for the last few months. Left foot goes numb, legs feel like weights, or wobbly with tingling and pain. Brain fogs and speach issues. Potty issues are also tons of fun! And I have squiggly lines and "junk" flowing through my eyes. But I know that these symptoms will all go away in time. Had 4 MRI's and seems like there were no new Lesions. But since the episode is still going on maybe in a bit they will show up or they are being little rascals and hiding out somewhere. My neuro treats a lot of people with MS so feel comfortable with her. In fact I should be calling her to let her know about the eyes since that is new. And if necessary she will send me to Duke for more evaluations. She has offered but I said no for now. But with this one, I may really need to go over there. I know that I really need to just go home and rest completely for a few days. But with everything going on it is hard to do that.

Currently I am on only Gabapectin 900 MG every 6 hours and Bacoflen 10 mg every 6 hours. Seems to help a bit. We have not started any other MS drugs at this point. I believe we are in just watch and see so she knows what type of MS I have.

Glad I found this forum and hopefully will be able to share and learn about this disease from others.
