Multiple Sclerosis - The Diagnosis!

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) - The Diagnosis!

(VIDEO 5)

In this video I talk about my long awaited diagnosis! Investigations into my symptoms started roughly around Feb 2012, but the hospital didn't reach a diagnosis until some 15 months later in May 2013. It was however prolonged, because of my disc decompression surgery, MS does take a long time to diagnose.

I also talk a little bit about Steroid treatment which ultimately helped considerably with a lot of my symptoms.

Early Symptoms started 2007:
1. Numbness.
2. Burning.
3. Tingling, humming, buzzing.
4. Skin sensitivity or Altered Sensation.
5. Squeezing sensation especially in the Legs.

All of the above across my Feet, Legs, Hands, Tummy and Back.

New Symptoms starting Feb 2012 (Major attack)
1. Weakness.
2. Spasticity.
3. Abnormal Gait (walking as if drunk).
4. Extreme lower back weakness.
5. Severe Chest Pain.
6. Anxiety.
7. Tremors
