Could it be MS? I'm fifteen yo girl who first got sick when I was twelve. I had muscle spasms, paralysis of the legs to the point I couldn't walk more than a few feet, a foot drop, a binding pain around my chest, very painful backache in my low back, tingling and numbness in my feet, oversensitive skin on my legs and torso, hyperreflexia. Several different neuro's told me I was textbook TM, despite a normal brain and spinal MRI. Treated me with steroids and I made a more or less complete recovery...
For a while. Now it's been three years with on going symptoms. I get trembling in my hands, incredible fatigue, weakness in my legs and hands, tingling on my shoulder blades, feeling like things are crawling on the skin on my feet, vibrating limbs, my legs and hands jerking or twitching involuntarily, difficulty peeing and needing to pee all the time, and lots of pain. It'll be constant for a few months and then gone for a few more, only to resurface with different symptoms down the road. Can't afford more MRI's; neuro says he doesn't know what it is because my MRI's were normal. Won't treat me except with steroids, which I don't want. Also, my mother says she's noticed my eyes darting back and forth really fast, so much that she said nobody could do that purposefully (e.g. I wasn't meaning to do it) but I had no awareness that I was doing it. Other than that, no vision problems.
A few doctors have said it's probably MS, but others aren't so sure. What do you think? All my physical tests have been normal, but my exams are abnormal. What's going on?!
I'm just so tired of docs saying "I don't know..."
