Hello!
On Jan.4 of this year I experienced a migraine headache with aura. Never had a migraine before. After that h/a I began experiencing left arm and leg numbness and tingling, prickly feelings. Right eye vision changes and some right facial numbness. Bone pain as well. The symptoms would come and go. Most days I would wake up feeling good but the symptoms would increase as the day went on.
Went to see my pcp on 1/17. Had an MRI/MRA that same day which should two areas of demyelination. Followed up with a neurologist on 1/26.
Had another MRI (c-spine this time), blood work, LP and VEP done. MRI normal, VEP normal, all labs normal except for a low Vit D level. LP results pending. Haven't had any other headaches since that first one on the 4th.
Neurologist has given me two scenarios. Early MS (original brain MRI with the areas of demyelination were so small and not in the right place to be causing the left sided issues) or complex migraine complicated by vit D deficiency. We are just waiting for the LP results.
Regardless of the LP results my neuro wants to rescan me in 3 months to see if there are any changes.
I am so confused! I feel the same symptoms as I did a week ago. Has anyone had similar experiences early on in their disease journey? Could this all really be cured by vitamin supplication? I am on pins and needles waiting for the LP results.
