Hi my names Victoria, I'm 19 years old
In a lovely relationship with a supportive partner. Nursing student. Earlier in the year I became really sick, with a headache and could hardly move. Went to the hospital as doctors thought it could possibly be a brain tumor, thankfully not! Also had numbness and tingling in my legs and hands which was horrible. Had issues with my eyes like a had blurry fuzzy spots in my vision. Also had problems with feeling my hands like when i was holding on to the steering wheel i couldnt recognise that i was holding on to it that it was my hand. Relatively healthy good weight small heart problems and have ADHD.

Went to a neurologist earlier in the year to see what was going on had many tests but no MRI scan, he did not know what it was and told me that there was no point in finding out whether it is MS as it will be too much for me and it's better not knowing about it at this age as it could make life a lot harder. Gave me some anti-depressants as i do suffer from anxiety and hyperventilation, and developed depression because of all the horrible symptoms.

He did say to return to him in two months time to see if the drugs helped which they didn't. I chose not to go back as he pretty much said to "walk it off" or have a "teaspoon of cement" . Learnt about it at nursing and they said that it is beneficial to know about it to get help etc. But i can't make up my mind if i go back i'll get a MRI and I don't know if I want to know.

I'm getting severe emotional problems on top of the problems aswell is this another symptom? Like I just can't calm down. Ive sort of taught myself to not think about the constant numbness or the weakness etc and to be happy that it's nothing worse.

Please message me and tell me whether i should return to the neurologist or just live my life as normal as possible and pray that it doesn't get worse and if it does return go back to the neurologist. I just don't know if i cant handle the news of potentially getting worse.
