Right Side / Left Side SX
 
When I started down this road 99% of my sx have been on my Right side. The last few days I have had sx on my left..... is this something that happens?

Will you get sx on both sides or have them move?

My cog fog has been terrible for two days! That I think bothers me more than anything for I feel like I am so stupid and I know that people I don't know think I am too....

Yeahbut,

My experience has included both left and right sides, but not always in
symetry. ie right leg, left arm etc. I will be interested to hear what others
chime in as this is confusing to me as well.

Over the years, my sides have taken turns and played well together for the most part.

It might be three fingers on one hand and two on the other. Then, it changes overnight.

I do want to caution you that if the issue persists and gets worse, please make that call to the neuro!

I hope it's just a little blitz and will quickly get out of your way. :hug:

I started out with right side issues, and those still remain my most annoying side.
My left side, is actually numb-er (if that's a word) and because my pain/numbness/burning etc. on the right "hurts" more, that is where my focus stays.
But many a day it is both and various body parts driving me crazier. And the fatigue, kicks my butt.

My weakness, ringing in my ear, etc. started on my left side. Then it was my right side that was affected. Now either side can be affected or both sides.

Awwww Yabbit I'm sorry. I hope it's just a temp thing, too.:hug:

I'm a lefty here....if my right side were as bad as my left, I'd be in a WC all the time..:eek: My right side is almost, not quite, pretty near, normal..<thanks Lord>:)

Most of my attacks were ambidextrous, lol, but my right side always came back. My left side just kept getting worse. :mad:

Feel better soon, sweetheart..:hug:

Right/Left
 
All of my sx initially were right side. Slowly I felt things over to the left (especially the feet tingle thing).
BUT: New symptoms appearing on the opposite side of your body should be at least reported to the Neuro. Left sided issues involve the right side of the brain and visa versa.
When I started getting symptoms on the opposite side, my doc ran a new MRI to check for new lesions.
Sometimes we already have lesions in different parts of the brain that start acting up but are not really "new".
My advice: Report it to doc and let him/her decide.

There are no patterns with MS, except perhaps with each of us as individuals. That can change any time too.

Jim's is on both sides. The left is numb and rarely hurts, the right side is a spawn of satan.

I play a mean juggling act!
 
I have most of my pain symptoms on the right side, but my left side is not left untouched! I have various symptoms that creep on on either side.

Spawn of Satan, lmao!!! Good description. :)
