I've been under investigation for several
months for many varied symptoms. Ms was
suggested briefly as a possibility but
following a normal mri brain scan it has
been discarded.
My symptoms are as follows:
· partial loss of sensation, all over but
especially in hands, face, feet and lower
legs
· tingling and pins and needles in hands,
arms, legs and feet.
· "buzzing" in lower spine
· over sensitivity to noise & touch
· depression & anxiety
· slurred speech and use of wrong words
· very vivid dreams
· chest pains
· swollen neck glands
· increasing, sometimes debilitating
fatigue
· difficulty recovering breath after
minor exertion
· weakness and shaking when tired
· pains in legs
· forgetfulness, confusion,
disorientation
· headaches
· dizziness, light-headedness
· irritability
· tearfulness
· disturbed sleep
· pain in hips joints at night, which
radiates down outside of legs, bad enough
to keep me awake (particularly left side)
(sciatica?)
· nausea
· periods have stopped for 3 months
(always regular before despite pcos)
· time passing I can't account for
does this ring any bells with anyone?? I
am seeing my specialist again but I don't
know when and my gp seems at a loss.

Your symptoms sound similar to those of ms
symptoms, especially the pins and needles
feeling. The only way to know if to go to
a neurologist and get a few tests done.
