I've am worried about my daughter. She is 26 and having symptoms that 'could' be ms-like. I know it could also be a lot of other things... maybe separate issues. But I know there are some of you who have talked about fears of your child having ms.

My dd is having vision issues. She see lines as being wavy and light and dark. Sometimes part of her line of vision turns dark then reappears.

She is also having some numbness in her arm and hand.

She talks about things going on she remembers from high school that she didn't think much of at the time. These things are similar to what I remember experiencing and I have never mentions these to her.

I want her to get in to see a neuro. So I think I will call my neuro and see if he will see her or what the best path for her to take would be.

Please remember her in your prayers.
Thank you.

i will keep your dd in my prayers.
i hope she's ok.

it might also be helpful for her to be seen by an opthamologist to check for ON.

Hello friend sorry for the fears, yes you are right, I worry about my kids and MS also. Hope its nothing major, but if you are correct, at least she will have a good jump on it and can help keep the MS from doing damage. my prayers and my best wishes for you and your DD

Friend,
I'll keep your DD in my prayers. I second Judy's recommendation for an opthalmologist appt. too. Prayers going out to you too, I know how worrying things like this can be.

I pray your DD doesn't have MS or any Neurological disease/disorder. Maybe migraines. They can be of the type called Silent Migraines, without any headache.

Affects the vision and perhaps some body parts too. Good luck to your DD, I hope she feels better soon. If she is on any medication she should consider that too might be causing some odd side effects.

Judy and Desinie,
I agree it would be good to go to opthalmologist. Maybe that should be her first step. I am not going to assume anything. But I also am not wanting her to just ignore for years like I did. Thank you so much for you input.

Lady,
I didn't know about the Silent Migraines. She is also under a lot of stress, so I wonder if that could cause any of this.
Thanks so much!

Thinking of you and your DD, Friend2U.

I hope she gets to see a neuro soon, and that her symptoms can be explained away by something relatively simple. Wishing you both the best.

I agree with all the good advice given here. I worry about my children, too. It's hard not to. I'm keeping you both in my prayers.

I am so sorry to hear about your Daughters symptoms and really hope she feels better soon and that you get some much-needed answers to put both yours and her mind at rest! Most of all though, I really hope and pray that it isn't MS and that it is something that can be easily treated!!!!

I am keeping you both in my thoughts and prayers and please keep us all updated when you can ... we're all here for you!

Well, Carp.. I am praying right now for you and DD, Friend..

My DD was DX at 33 with MS.. She is now 38 on LDN and doing OK, so far. She had a recent flare, but had gone off her Meds for awhile...It's called denial. She is back on her Meds and doing alright, again.

I will keep praying for the best for your DD..
