Symptoms of MS or brain tumor? or Anxiety? Posted: 04-09-07 03:13am
I have been getting tingling in my legs
and hands sometimes face and even tongue.
My left leg feels painfu and I have
persistent ringing in my ears.
Occasionally I get a feeling of a tremor
that I thought was apalpitation and ecg
was fine. Doctor not too concerned and
this is affecting my work and
relationship. Could this be MS or a brain
tumour

I believe that the symptoms you report
could be due more to anxiety than multiple
sclerosis or a brain tumor. In your case,
anxiety might be caused by early
menopause. Both MS and brain tumors can be
confirmed or excluded by a CT-scan of the
head.
