Smile Hello from Saskatchewan

I'm new here too, and am glad that I found your site. I'm actually terribly exhausted today, so won't share much info. I'm also hoping that next time I want to come back here, I'll remember the sign-in name I used!

I don't have a diagnosis yet, but have several symptoms that are neuropathic. In the fall of 2007 I developed double vision. I've also been having muscle twitches for more than 3 months now...every day, all day. I get sharp 'electric' type pain sometimes down a limb. Sometimes my feet go numb, sometimes my hands tingle. I have had a rash on my face for about 10 years now. I was told it was rosacea though. I have some hair loss too. There's more, but I think that's the main stuff.

My mom has primary progressive multiple sclerosis. She is 56 years old and has lived in a nursing home for 10 years already. I have two aunts that were diagnosed with SLE (Lupus)...both on my dad's side of the family. One is struggling with lung problems mostly, and the younger aunt (58 years old) passed away due to Lupus in April 2009.

I don't know what I have, but it would be nice to find out. I'm hoping to learn from those on this forum...about their lives and the roads to (and beyond) their diagnosis.

Kind regards,

Jayne

Welcome

It's a great place to come to. We do understand.

You could have multiple health issues. So sorry you're having these issues. It always helped me to understand what was going on so I hope you get your answers soon.

Welcome to NeuroTalk, Jayne! I hope you can find out what you're suffering with so you can begin some sort of treatment. It's frustrating when you can't get a dx but unfortunately that's what alot of people go through.

Hope to see you posting again soon!
