Hi I am a 19 y old female. I have had pain in my legs mainly my left one, and my whole left side. My shoulder will totally pop in and out if I move it around sometimes. It sounds really loud. I also have pain in my left foot a lot most of the time, and the leg. My other side, well sometimes it will hurt but not as bad as the other side. And I notice that my hips are doing the same thing as my shoulders poping in and out of place, and it hurts......I also have had a numb spot just below my right eye by the corner of and sometimes blurry vision but that doesnt happen often. I just wonder if this could be ms. But I dont have inssurance to see the doctor or anything, anyone know what could help me and the pain?

Brandy,

i also have been trying to find out what is wrong with me. Btw, my name is jennifer and i'm 21. At 15 I started getting numb in my lip and it moved to my arm (on my left side) so I went to the hospital to see what was wrong (if it could possibly be a stroke). Well when all the tests were done they found nothing, and the feeling had went away. Well I got these symptoms on and off once in a while, but I figured they would say it was nothing so I did not pay attention to them. Until may of last year, when I felt like I was going to pass out. I went to 1 hospital, they did a ct-scan checked my vitals and said everything was fine. The released me, even though I was still a bit dizzy. The next day, things got worse, so I went to another hospital. When I got there they admitted me because my white cells were high. I spent 6 days there a bit numb and disoriented, with no luck. I had 2 mris, 2 eeg's and a ct-scan, nothing. I was released when I refused to have them probe my shunt or do a spinal tap (they had told me I may have ms, and this was the only way for them to find out). I get the numbness all the time now, and it has actually been happening for about a week now (same as you~up in my left eye with some blurred vision) but also down the left side of my face. I hope maybe we can come to a conclusion. I'm tired of living like this! However, I do not experience pain.

Ok
Well I dont know what is going on either...The numbness doesnt happen all the time..Just every so often. But I do notice that if I sit a certain way for like 1 min or lil longer, my leg or arm hand, feet start to fall asleep. Really wierd...And lot of the time my feet and legs are cold, its like I can feel that they are. I dont know if I do have ms I dont think I can do much about it, maybe take pain medications. I dont know, im just confused and sometimes this makes me worry a lot.

I am worried also. I feel my left hand go cold as it goes numb. And mine used to be off and on until recently. I also have been feeling like something is in the back (left side) of my tongue, making it go numb. Maybe we should go back to the doc. But I don't have insurance and racked up a $20,000 bill in may.

I Am Waiting For My Doctor to Send Me For Tests
I have been having trouble with dizzy spells for a few years now and about a year and a half ago I started having trouble with loosing feeling in my legs when I walk or stand and my feet turn blue. But I noticed that they were worse while I was in Morocco it was so hot there I had to sit in front of a fan while I was there. But the dizzy spells always hit me when I am walking and if I stretch. I have no idea but it does have me worried, my eyes sight has gotten worse and I do have a lose of hearing. And my memory well it could be better. I have suffered for yrs with osteoarthritis from my neck down so I am always in pain nothing seems to help anymore. If I lay on my right side at night my left arm falls asleep. The spells vary on how long they last sometimes they are over quickly but sometimes they last for sometime.

You can suffer the symphtoms of MS without having the disease. If you are interested in MS and it's cause there is a book by Hal A. Huggins call Solving The MS Mystery. Basic MS and other neurological diseases are caused by mercury in our enviroment. The four ways you get mercury in your system in order of importance is amalgam fillings, eating fish, vaccinations, and poluted enviroment(living in an area with industrial polluted air. We are all different as to how much of this mercury our bodies can handle. One way of getting mercury and other toxans out of your system is by taking certain supplements which detoxify heavy metals. One of the best for this is vitamin C. I take 3 grams a day. Following a good diet is also important since your body will detoxify itself if you give it the nutrients it needs. The paleo diet is one of the best for getting rid of these sympthoms. Google it on line and you could get rid of these problems. Also remember drinking soda, coffee, artifical sweetners, or drugs are bad for your body.
