Hi, I am 66 years old and have been having the following symptoms, my gp & heart dr don't listen to me very well. Here is what I have been experiencing for quite some time now.
I have spells when the palms of ;my hands and the bottoms of my feet itch so bad that I could cry, then it goes away. I have strange sharp pains in various areas, legs, arms like someone sticking me with electric shocks. I have spells of being so tired I could just fall asleep. I don't sleep well, take trasadone to sleep. I have strange popping of my bones, especially in my neck, they snap and crack when I move my head. My right leg has the feeling like I strained my muscle, kinda numb feeling. Both my feet have numbness in the front half, sometimes it hurts to walk. I have bladder problems. Had a spell when my ribs hurt like crazy. Also have spells when doing my work I cant breath, have a hard time catching my breath. I would like to hear from anyone who has any thoughts.

Thanks very much for listening.

I agree -- ms has a big variety of weird symptoms, but those don't really sound like it. There are a lot of other neurological problems out there, you need to see a doctor.
