hello,
it has been awhile since I have been on here (august of 2004)! It has been a weird year with new and odd symptoms.....Still more confused then ever and if anyone who reads this has any advice or recomendations at all please provide them........It would be a big help!
I had the mri done with the dye on my brain and spinal cord.....Nothing abnormal, infact a neurologist looked at it and said everything was perfect and normal!
I went to a opthamoligist and he said my optic nerve was normal/my vision was 20/20, I told him about the episodes of blurry vision and pain that surrounds my eye, he said it could have been allergies!
So here are my new and exsisting symptoms.....
1) weakness at times (days or weeks) in both legs espcically around my knees or above my knees it feels almost swollen and I can fell small lumps very odd thing!
2)after I work out at the gym somtimes my feet and toes wil tingle and feel strange for up to 5 minutes and then go away!
3) still have the tingelingness at times in my pinky
4) my head still does the jerking thing!
5) very naueses and horrible stomach pains including ulcers and a recent visist to the er for a iv due to my stomach
6) somtimes a pricly feeling on my bottom half of my back
7) my lymph nodes still swell up big behind my ears and in both sides of my neck.....And sometimes after they go down it lwill leave a small tiny hard grain like thing in my neck........
8)somtimes I feel really depressed when I try to walk, it feels strange I dont know how else to explain it//.......

I have seen over 10 doctors in the last year and they think I might have some sort of connective tissue disease,......Like lupus, so I was tested with a ana blood test which was positve 1:180, then 3 months later to confirm the dx, it was negative 1:40 ! I have been so obsessed with all this and im just tired and sick of it all! I keep thinking I have ms, can someone out there please suggest or tell me about there ms symptoms..........
