THanks for answering everyone. The reason I asked the question is because I am having some problems with my eyes. I don't have an actual dx but he opth. said I have all the symptoms of an MS eye, but my optic never and eyes in general a very healthy. I think the poblems I am having at the moment might be because of a recent bout of shingles, it was on my eyelid and farhead. Its better now and the dr. said it did not go into my eye, but every little pain makes me nervous. I know shingles in the eye can cause loss of vision.

Did the pain in the neck get worse when you moved your eyes or if you turned your head and eyes a certain way?

I had a weird extremely painful pain in my neck just before and during the first month or two I had my first case of ON. I didnt feel it the last two times tho, but those were nowhere near as bad as the first time I had it.

I did/do not have pain in my neck, although my neck has been very stiff lately. Iam 43 now. When I was about 25 I was sitting at work and all of the sudden I lost vision in my eye. (I can't remember which one) The person sitting across from just kind of half dissapeared. It was like a big white spot. At the time the dr. told me I probabley had a mirgrain. I did not get a headach. Since then this has happend 2 more time. THe most recent time (2 years ago) I got the typical halo aura that lasted for about 1/2 hour. All three time I did not get a headaches. One of the reasons for the lesions on my mri was possible mirgain disorder. Maybe that is what this is all about. I do get terrible headaches that go straight across the top of my head, alot. I also seem to have trouble absorbing b12 from food. Iam ok if I take sublingal tabs.

No. Pain was not associated with eyes. I suspect the caffeine pills for fatigue.
