Weird symptoms? Where do I start?

I know there are still many who have been battling MS longer, this MoSter is not kind to any of us—but after over 20 years now 😵‍💫 aging with MS is awful.😞 I don’t know if my new irritations are MS or mental-pause err menopause 🙄 What I am dealing with now is a sudden noise intolerance & sound sensitive issues. Also developing tinnitus & hearing things 🫣feeling phantom touching—beyond skin crawling (bugs & itchy) and that wretched corset of MS Hug that has been present for years. I’ve been taking Gabapentin for nerve pain, but been off ALL DMDs since 2015. Dunno what else to share. It’s MS Awareness Month, and I wish I was not always so very aware. Wish I could take independent steps without thinking about where my feet 👣 are & if my legs will support me when I move. 🥺

  1. Hi I want to first say I love your profile picture! I can hear how difficult this has been for you. I know our members can definitely relate when you say you wish you were not so aware of your MS. I wish you could take a break from all of your symptoms. Sending you so much strength! Keep up the good fight. Jill (Team Member)
