    Welcome to the community, we appreciate you reaching out.
    It is quite common for an MS diagnosis to be slow and challenging. This is primarily due to the fact that MS has a wide variety of potential symptoms and can present differently from person to person. Additionally, there is no one single test that can confirm an MS diagnosis.
    I thought I'd share this article that discusses MS symptoms: https://multiplesclerosis.net/symptoms.
    In addition, you may be interested in this article that discusses the diagnostic process: https://multiplesclerosis.net/diagnosis.
    I would recommend discussing your concerns and new/changing symptoms with your healthcare provider.
    Here's hoping you find some answers soon. Always know this community is here for help and support.
