In response to your question I do not always have dizziness along with balance issues. In fact I have very few dizzy spells and have balance issues daily. When I do have dizzy spells I know not to even try and walk.Dx'd 4/1/11. First symptoms in 2001. Avonex 4/11, Copaxone 5/12, Tecfidera 4/13 Gilenya 4/14-10/14 Currently on no DMT's, Started Aubagio 9/21/15. Back on Avonex 10/15

I have been tipping and leaning or having to catch myself and I am not dizzy.At weddings, my Aunts would poke me in the ribs and cackle "You're next!". They stopped when I started doing the same to them at funerals. Dave Barry

Whenever I walk down a wide or narrow hallway, my body starts leaning/turning to the left. I have to exercise a conscious effort to keep from running into the wall.
Anybody else out there????

I was laughing at my balance issues and my sudden muscle spasms a few weeks ago with my best friend. Suddenly she got silent and said...." I don't find this funny" I know she is just worried about me...
I just reassured her by saying...."I have to laugh at my moments like this or I would be crying all the time"
She understood what I was telling her and now she laughs with me....DX 10/26/11

Well spoke too soon. drats. Woke this am with the entire front of my leg numb, and my back of my left ankle did not want to co-operate with the rest of my foot.
determined not to let it stop me, I put on my "good" walking shoes and weaved and bobbed out to our honda. I opened the door, sat in the front seat and watched my daughter til the bus came. I then walked as quickly as we can to the security of the house, where I clung to the wall for all it was worth.
As I got to the door, I wondered if my neighbors think I am a binge drinker. Oh well, like ya'll said sometimes you just gotta laugh to keep from crying.
For me this is usually free of dizzy spells. I usually get dizzy when I over do it with the heat. It's always a great combo. dizzy, nauseous, and tired as heck.
hope you are better very soon.-- and the dang heat goes bye bye.
