I am a 61 yr old woman who just got an MRI due to month
long episode of numbness tingling and pain in left arm and
hand and over a year of extreme, extreme fatigue. I also have had at least two other troubling symptomatic phases over the last three years. During the first I had numbness tingling loss of balance with 6 falls that year and tremors in left hand and arm. The second episode involved my knee giving out and needing leg braces and a cane. I am diabetic have sleep apnea high BP. I have candidiasis. I know diagnosis is rare at my age for MS but I've had almost all symptoms of MS including bowel and bladder issues brain fog eye and face pains and lots of episodes of numbness and tingling. Is it possible I could have undiagnosed MS at my age? What is my prognosis with such a late onset. Also have had a lifetime of extreme stressors.
