I have recently been diagnosed with MS. I had an MRI and lumbar puncture (after a barrage of cardiovascular tests) after having 2 tonic clonic (grand mal) seizures in 4 days.

In the past few months I've gotten what feels like a trapped nerve in my neck on the right side. It doesn't hurt very much until it 'clicks' and then whenever I move my neck to the right side it hurts until it settles down. Also when I lean my head forward and down, it makes my right arm tingle.

Now being newly diagnosed I'm still unsure about a lot of things, especially as my first show was epileptic seizures which is very rare apparently.

Is this just a trapped nerve in my neck (or similar) or is this a symptom of MS?
