Hi all,
I'll try to make this as short as possible. I've been in limbo for what seems like over 2 years now. Christmas 2014 I had a severe vertigo attack. Couldn't walk or stand. Went to the hospital who advised it was an inner ear issue and to go home and rest. I did so and it passed over a couple weeks each day getting easier.
About a year later I had some headaches and brain fog that would come on every day so I was sent for a brain and c spine mri. That came back clear. I also had issues with pins and needles and numbness which I had blood tests for and they came back normal. It was put down to anxiety.
Since then I've had symptoms that have stuck around with no explanation and I'm not struggling to think what else could be wrong? I have a left hip flexor that gives me pain down my leg, random muscle twitches and pins and needles when I lean to the side for a minute. I was referred to a neurologist who thinks it's anxiety related. I started just accepting these as anxiety but now a couple more things have popped up that has me questioning it all again.
I have a burning sensation in my feet which is really noticeable when I've got socks or shoes on and I now have a numb spot on the tip of my left big toe. To go with this I've started forgetting basic things like certain words and such.
I decided to see my neurologist again who has said get a t spine mri which I'll get tomorrow. He said he doesn't think anything will come from it but I'm worried that it will come back clear and I'll still have no idea what's wrong.
2 years of this seems like it has to be MS or someone neurological...
Would appreciate anyone opinion.
