Diagnosed 2yrs ago. Please if u have not been diagnosed try not to diagnose yourself. This is a terrible disease to have. I most definitely wouldn't want to say i got this before a Dr told me i did. Just want everyone to know that this aint even what u want to think about before its been put on medical records. Prayers up for all🙏🏾!
I suffered from this illness for more than 6 years..worst nightmare of my life, the never ending fatigue, weakness, blindness, muscle spasms, and other symptoms of this disease. my doctor told me that i will suffer lifetime paralysis and total blindness of my both eyes but still God is the best healer with His miracle i recovered. no more symptoms of MS and even my right eye has a vision already. for almost 1yr now i can say that my life has never been better since the day i discovered a supplement that God has given me. i am living a normal life without pain and suffering. praying for all of you that you will be an MS survivor just like me. just pray to God and he will extend HIS healing hands to all of you.
pls what supplements are you using.
@aasomonye Watch the video on the diet of Dr. Wahls. She reversed her own MS symptoms by choosing the right food intake. Lot to find about her here on UA-cam. Bless you!

What a sad sad sad disease. I watched my dad SUFFER growing up. He lost his battle at the age of 60. I was 24. I watched him have so many seizures he wouldn't wake up. Doctors couldn't stop it. I watched him struggle to do small things... man.
🙏
Im so sorry. This is my biggest fear because I have 5 children and two are very young. I’m terrified that they’ll not know me like I was before this horrible disease. Just know that your dad would have given anything not to have this disease.
Yeah I'm scared my son will have it
I live with 1. 3. 4. And 5. Right now but not giving up people still don't believe because gods strength has helped all this time
Mobility can be regained. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
Everyone’s experiences are different. But yes I do agree. The possibility is definitely there for many.
Please don’t auto-diagnose yourself through a UA-cam video, even if “medical” or from professionals. I got diagnosed in February 2023. It’s not a disease you even think about. You always think it’s something simple, something different, something less serious. As cliche as it sounds, it always happens to someone else, never to YOU. And it’s not a disease you want to have. It’s heavy, it’s painful, it’s time consuming, it eats at your brain both literally and figuratively. Whenever your hand shakes your first thought is “is it because of MS?” and whenever you stumble your first thought is “is it because of MS?” and whenever you can’t swallow properly you think “is it because of MS?” You live half of your life wondering what symptoms are MS symptoms and what tiredness is MS tiredness and what pain is MS pain and what anxiety is MS anxiety. Ask for proper care at medical facilities. And stay strong.
‼️Diagnosis by doctors is important‼️
❌ Don't self diagnose ❌
I got my MS in 2016 While I was active duty Army still. I re-enlisted earlier that year but after that my body started acting weird. But I was still trying to be a strong leader but the symptoms were kickin my @$s and ppl thought I was making stuff up. But after the third test, the spinal tap it was confirmed that I had MS
Yeah people sometimes think you're just being a hypochondriac or making symptoms up
No MRI scan? Eye problems also a good way to diagnose. Have you started immune therapy? I was diagnosing in 1990 based on spinal fluid and MRI scan.
@@luisv007 the MRI was the first spot of concern with the lesions in my brain but they still had to be sure and redo an MRI. Then July of 2016 my vision goes blurry
@@prosperousone2970 optic neuritis is a flag for MS. My first year I had three episodes of MS and last episode had optic neuritis. Second one, I had double vision. I haven’t had that problem until recently. When I get tired, I get double vision. I recently watched this (ua-cam.com/video/yzH8ul5PSZ8/v-deo.html) and found that it really showed me what symptoms I have is relatable. How are you now?
I have all of these symptoms, including lesions on my brain. I had a lumbar puncture 8 months ago, and no proteins were found in my cerebrospinal fluid. I’ve also been tested for other diseases that share same symptoms of MS. I have been suffering with daily pain, stiffness, fatigue, and pins & needles feeling in my left leg and now left arm for over a year now. No diagnosis yet! Doctors say I am a mystery. I’m very frustrated!
That sounds very frustrating and I can honestly understand. I really hope you get answers soon!! I wrote a comment about my situation and symptoms. My name is Jessica as well but most call me Jess, my mom / moms side and siblings call me Jessie. My husband is the only one who calls me Jessica. I’m truly sorry that you’re going through all that 😢
Jilynn I am facing exactly the same problem past 1.5 years. I don't have have a diagnosis neither can I walk or function. Am just 39😢
@@JessieLee_ thank you Jess. Many call me Jess as well Lol. I go for a second opinion tomorrow. Hopefully, I’ll get some answers.
@@neetujogi8087 I am so sorry you are going through this. Have you sought another opinion? I go for a second opinion tomorrow morning.
@@jlynn1113651 yes I have visited 8 doctors with regards to my spine and brain . They give me a different diagnosis whenever i visit. I was told I have disc bulge in my back and neck so I did therapies that hardly worked . I was also told neuropathy for which I took lot of medication with no effect. I mean this looks am so unlucky unable to get a diagnosis and plus I cannot function since 1.6 years spending my days on bed. So frustrating when u have a family that is dependent on me and nothing works. I am having thoughts to end myself as this is no life.i spent all my savings on doctors therapies etc. I am in india here we have no health system or insurance its very costly. Once ur down with ur body u can never recover.
Just realized I got all these
Same I also experience face twitching
I cured ms if you want to get free reply me i will tell you tips
Do you get seizures?
@@seanguzy9601 Seizures are not typical for MS, demyelinization rather leads to loss of signal transduction unlike signal overtransmission like in convulsions.
Spastic attacks, like a muscle group being completely contracted for persistent time, that's more like it, but still no convulsion, which requires rapid oscillations between relaxed and contracted.
@@fragileomniscience7647This is completely false and the details supplied are just fabricated misinformation. Individuals with MS are more likely than those without MS to be at risk for seizure. The typical MS seizure originates from the white matter lesion or area of damage affecting the adjacent grey matter and this triggering the misfired electrical signal. Medication available to directly treat both the event as well the progression of the disease. If one suffers from a serious condition one needs to consult a medical professional.
Tingling doesnt always go ..nor pains . Then theres other diagnosis that keads elsewhere first then to recheck sclerosis..
I’m 44yrs old & I’ve been having all the warning signs for MS. My husband pointed it out bc his friend has and she had said all these plus more, my vision going blurry all of a sudden, dizziness, tingling in extremities that comes and goes, headaches, memory, anxious but more like heart palpitations even though I take anxiety meds, heart palpitations when lying down or resting, pain, extreme fatigue and more. I did have a recent blood test and I am deficient in vitamin D & B12, plus I have Streptococcal arthritis of multiple sites from a strep infection that I didn’t have any symptoms from. I’m also diagnosed with fibromyalgia, I have degenerative disc disease, nerve damage in my spine, endometriosis, osteoporosis, cervical arthritis, depression and anxiety. With all that being said my memory has gotten worse over the last 2 months and all the symptoms I wrote at the beginning are either new or worsening. Believe me i don’t want another diagnosis on my already big list, but it’s still something to consider. I’m going to take the antibiotics for the infection and the vitamins and if I’m not feeling a different soon or they worsen I’ll go to ER or my doctor.
I had all the warning signs as well. Muscle spasms all over, tingling in hands and feet, and feeling weak. Had blood testing two weeks ago and an MRI done today. No abnormalities whatsoever. It’s amazing the effects of anxiety can have on the nervous system. I am too, low on vitamin D and apparently it can take 2 months for them to go back to normal.
The sun is a good way to get your body to produce vitamin D. Being outside is also very good for your mental health.
@@Bruceyenzer that’s so great to hear. I’ve been taking the vitamins and antibiotics consistently…but the antibiotics I thought it said take 1 once a day but my memory and cognitive function has been so bad btt I was almost done with the antibiotics I realized it said take one tablet by mouth twice a day 🤦🏻♀️ almost everyday I wake up with palpitations, headaches and the only way I can explain this other symptom that I’m having is fuzziness in my head and just overall not feeling right or myself. But your comment gives me hope thank you 🙏
@@janejenkins5137 you’re so right, my husband has an amazing green thumb and has planted flowers for me along with a garden and as hard as it is with all my pain and other stuff going on I try to go out everyday, even just for a little bit. I have fibromyalgia and ME / CFS ( chronic fatigue syndrome) which comes along with temperature dysregulation’s and when it’s really hot it really makes my symptoms worse as well as cold. Living in Ohio is horrible for someone like me. Thank you for your comment because it’s so true that being outside really helps mental health. Growing up and well into my 30s ( I’m now 44) I always was outside rather walking , riding a bike or sitting outside. As I got worse I spent less and less time outside. I’ve really been trying bc I know how important it is❤️
*I have osteoarthritis not osteoporosis
to anyone who finds my comment please use yoga, meditation, and Herb's to treat Ms, Blessed Be.
What herbs?
Raia: turmeric, ginger and Asian ginsing, Blessed Be.
Raia: try the Mediterranean diet, Blessed Be.
Thank you
This is nice to know
My problem leg,,ms...I am not speaking English my language Bangla...I am share with my problem but
They checked me through a lumbar puncture. I was clear of MS. Basically, i have CLL. I had alot of these symptoms. Anyway, im still monitored at the cancer center every 3 - 4 months watching for any changes on my cells. Still no chemo ect. Was anemic and had iron transfusion. Stay in watch and wait till a change is noted to start chemo or something. Fatigue and other symptoms i manage oksy. This was diagnosed in 2016.
My first symptom back in 1990 what is the difficulty swallowing. Food we just get hung in the middle of my esophagus and it would just start spasming top to bottom and I'd be and I'd be salivating feeling like I'm going to suffocate. And over the years it kind of went away
Proper Nutritional Diet plays a tremendous roll when it comes to MS. And symptoms can be illuminated. And that's a proven fact.
I hope the sle lupus I have isn't causing me to get it, I have some of the symptoms with tiredness and brain fog with weird eye pains when I move my eyes sometimes, the lupus causes me to have fevers a lot with headaches I have a lesion forming on my spine I get a burning sensation in my legs with some tingling in my feet I feel like I weigh a ton and can't move it takes me time to get up sometimes if I'm flaring bad. The lupus is attacking my lungs it's caused me to lose both thyroid glands.
I have tingling in one foot for days hopefully its not MS 😢
I feel like i may have this but im still working with drs to find out what's going on. 😢
How are you doing???
I definitely have MS lol
I knew i had it before Drs told me.
To the ones that have all these symptoms and they think they may have MS just so you know, a lot of people are waking up on this planet, and every single symptom on this list is also a physical symptom of a spiritual awakening so if you have been to the doctors and they can’t find anything wrong with you, take that into consideration, I love you all❤
Proper Nutritional Diet plays a tremendous roll when it comes to MS. And symptoms can be eliminated. And that's a proven fact.
i think you're trying to say eliminated.

myline is arabiccword describing diagonal shape
Yea ...
😢
I have ms. And I’m addicted to opioids.
I was diagnosed in the hospital today 😢
You can lead a normal life. Montel Williams was diagnosed a long time ago and he is in fantastic shape. Read his approach to MS and I’m confident you’ll be fine. I have many symptoms but my doctors keep telling me I have anxiety… it’s frustrating when I know something isn’t right with me.
how do they diagnose in a hospital? i feel like im dying n my reg drs seem to be no help... but i worry if i go to the hospital they wont do anything either
@@krysh8870 a spinal tap to measure your mylenin levels if it’s mylination present in the MRI. If you think you have it get treatment. I ignored it and ended up not being able to see or feel ANYTHING and was crawling in the floor for help
@@krysh8870MRI and/or Lumbar puncture
My son was diagnosed at the hospital- they do MRI tests , spinal tap, bloodwork.
I have some numbness toes feet, no diabetes doctor sent me nerve test showed absent sensory nerves below knee think. Has me baffled he referred me hospital I see neurologist 2 weeks .. hope not bad I’m 55. Maybe vaccine cause it idk happened after that . Oh I did see podiatrist too so Morton neuroma ruled out and so was tarsal tunnel I’m worried
Very much like a stroke imo. Wondering now why i wasnt checked ..
Nope. Not sure why you think that. If you have symptoms of anything bothersome please don’t try to self diagnose but rather see a qualified professional.
🥲💔
I have all these symptoms then tell us how to cure
There is no cure for MS
Just because you are experiencing the symptoms listed doesn’t mean you have MS. You may or may not have it or another disease. Please do not self diagnose but rather seek the treatment of a qualified medical professional who can provide a diagnosis
@@victoriaboster1177 thank you for your kind compliment...
