Default Weakness on your dominant side

Hi Guys

Sorry if this question has been asked before but.....

I have been having lots of problems with weakness/numbness/loss of strength (or perceived loss of strength)/fatigue/incoordination in my left side (particularly arm and leg - but also like a general weight carried everywhere). Sometimes weak, sometimes really heavy - like filled with concrete. I have been Dx'd RRMS for nearly 12 years now.

I am left-handed - so my question is, do you find you have more symptoms on your dominant side? I get few things on my right, but most of my issues are on my left. I have read an article about MS attacking more frequently used nerve pathways, which was fascinating, but when I got to the end, they were selling supplements - so I thought perhaps it may have been 'witch-doctory' in action.

I would appreciate everyone's input on this one. Does your MS affect you more on your dominant side - or does it not discriminate and get you anywhere and everywhere?

Thanks in advance for your input.

Regards

Lyn
