Hey guys, I'm new on this forum. My name is Harold and I'm a 23-year-old guy.
For the past 2 years, I've been feeling so bad that my life has completely stagnated. No studies anymore, no work, just one walk around the park a day and that's it.
I've been to the hospital for what feels like a thousand times but I've never had a diagnosis apart from lactose intolerance and sensitive lungs (I also used to smoke).
Anyway, here I am, still the same. I've been to a neurologist once and she told me I'm fine after 1 physical examination. I'm really scared for MS as a lot of my symptoms seem MS-related, like muscle spasms/fasciculations, internal tremor, worsened sight, needles and pins sensation on my back and the back of my head when I go past my exertion limit or when I'm hot (like in a hot shower), often numb limbs, my left leg which is way weaker than my right leg and hurts a lot (while walking and while resting), and of course fatigue.
I've never had an MRI or lumbal punction and still every day I'm scared of MS. I also have some other non MS-related symptoms but I won't name them all, because it would be too much to read. I have now started a program with a psychologist that believes in TMS and we're going down that route, but I still fear MS.
Most symptoms I can "think away", but symptoms like pins and needles when I have a really hot shower, I can't really relate to TMS..
What do you guys think/recommend? Thanks in advance <3
