Whatever "gets" me (below the neck) during an attack, always ultimately gets both sides; neuropathic pain, spasticity, numbness, etc. I can get symptoms on either side (not in an attack), but "damage" occurs to both at the same time.

That's what makes me think this is something else, like a disc or peripheral nerve problem.

Thanks for the thought, curious. :hug:

My B (and D) levels are good, just had them both checked. My symptoms are definitely related to MS (spinal cord damage), and they know because it gets both sides at once.

I was thinking that Cheryl's might not be related to MS though, because she is only affected on one side.

I read up on TOS (never knew anything about it before, thanks for the lead) and the info said it was caused by "compression of the brachial plexus". That is same area of injury that I linked to in my first posting, but just a different cause (not due to MS nerve damage at the root).

I think you are onto something with this!
