I seem to have many symptoms that lead me to believe i may have MS.
About 18 years ago i was diagnosed with optic neuritis, i had a brain scan and several other tests. No one ever mentioned MS to me at the time the tests did not give any indication of any thing wrong. My GP told me that there was no treatment and it was just one of those things.
Since that time i have had many attacks on both of my eyes, but fortunately not both at one time.
About a year ago i awoke with the tip of my left thumb numb, and over the next few days it spread to my hand and up my arm untill i had no use in my arm or hand at all.
This lasted for about 90 days at which point i slowly regained the use of my arm and hand, all be it not completely, i still have some slight numbness and pins and needles in that hand. I now have developed double vision which seems to be connected to the same eye that im having an attack of neuritis in. I have taken to wearing a patch over my eye to allow me to drive.
I also get numbness in my feet face and legs, along with constant aching pains in both of my calfs which never subsides.
I have no health insurance so i cant even get any treatment right now.
I think i have covered it all but its possible i have missed some thing.
I am a 41 year old withe male, thats pretty scared and lost right now, any advice would be gladly accepted..
