Hi,

I'm looking for some advice on where to go investigate next, I have a brief summary of symptoms/timeline/tests/results below, hoping someone can see some alignment with their symptoms and provide some pointers.

about a year ago I started to get muscle spasms in my shoulder and neck muscles, typically resulting in headaches - this was followed with tingling/numbness in the left side of my neck/face, MRI and blood tests all normal. XRay shows straight cervical spine. I worked with a Physical Therapist to try to remove the knots in my neck/shoulder, only marginal improvement.

Over a couple of months the numbness/tingling in the left side of my face gradually migrated across my nose to the right side of my face, and also started to get symptoms in my hands, forearms, right leg below the knee, and tongue. I also noticed some muscle spasms in my calf muscles. A second head/neck MRI (several months after the first) was also normal.

I've had two MRIs, multiple blood tests, all appear to be normal, a nerve conduction study (EMG), also normal, and autonomic test (also normal).

Currently taking B12, Omega-3, and Magnesium supplements which appear to have reduced the frequency and severity of the numbness/tingling, but the muscle spasms/pain are still about the same.

I'm working with a neurologist who is asking questions that appear to be leaning in the direction of MS.

Do any of the symptoms/progression match your experiences? - I'm really trying to get to root cause so I can start appropriate treatment. It's been a year since the first symptoms started, and at this point we don't appear to be any closer to determining what this is.

Thanks.
