Q: MS symptoms and virus ?
asked by: sistersue on January 31st, 2009

doctor My right hand crippled on me two days ago. It lasted two full days without being able to use it. I felt like I had nails driven into the palm of my hand sending shooting (making me holler) pain down my entire hand and fingers. I couldn't do anything with it at all w/o being in absolute (15: on a scale of 1 to 10) PAIN!!!!! I had been suffering from a terrible virus while this happened. I was wondering number one: Does this sound like an MS symptom? and number two: Do viruses bring on symptoms? I get so damn frustrated not knowing if what ails me is due to MS or something else?!!!???

Thanks for any replies

A virus / infection can bring on a flare.

How is your hand now?
