Do I have the signs of ms? I have been living with Chronic Pain for years. Had cervical mylopthy in 2011.
Have chronic lower back pain since 2007.

Now, I have been falling, chronic bladder problems (more on that) sometimes seeing dots, constipation to diaherra at times, pins and needles in arms to fingers (mostly pinky and ring fingers) havehad burning sensation and pins and needles in butt to legs.
Have had a mri from top to bottom. Showing stenious in the cervical area degnetive disc and disc collapsing on lower disc.

Had a mesh bladder and post 3 weeks on that but, still having to run to bathroom and peeing thru clothes. Have even wet the bed prior to the operation. x4/ Have been diag. with overactive bladder and stress incontinence. Seeing a neuro. tomorrow, but was wondering if this sounds anything like ms.

My sister does have some lessions . Help with any ideas.

Hi,I can't really help with your question but I do have the same symptoms. My neuro said I likely don't as my MRI was clear, although the one of brain was done without contrast. He wants to see me in two months?? He said there is still a possibility, I really don't know when they do decide if it is or isn't. I have been diagnosed with fibro but neuro initially said some symptoms weren't consistent with fibro......so what else can it be?

It is all very confusing and the uncertainty is a killer. I just wan to know and have it treated one way or the other. This way I am in limbo without knowing what may come next.

I hope you find answers soon as well.

Thanks for the feedback. Hope things work out for you. Hopefully, the neuro can find out what's up. I'm thinking possibility of fibro 2..

Sometimes I feel it's up to us to find out what's going on. Keep in touch.

Hi Grandchildren5 and Ouch. I'm sorry to hear of your health problems. We can't diagnose you of course. Please ask any questions you may have.

I hope you both get answers and relief real soon!
