Answer 1

it sounds more like you have got  indegestion, heartburn, that can

affect the chest,

  do you eat rich , spicy , fatty fried foods,

  try keeping off of those and you may find that  the chest pains

go away.

   if it carrys on go back and see your dr, it could be gastric or

  it  may be the  medication you  are on .

look  at the leaflet, and see if there are any problems ,

that you , have .

  if so , go back to ur quack and get the meds changed.

  they do not all agree with everybody.

Answer 2

Hello,

Many times getting an MS diagnosis can be a long process.I know it's hard to go through, but it's not at all unusual. MS is rarely diagnosed with the first attack.

Many years ago, I had a bout of what the Dr said was the flu.I know now that it was probably my first MS attack. I spent 2 weeks being so dizzy I couldn't function. my eyes felt like they were spinning and I couldn't stand light or any motion..I pretty much had to lay in a fetal position.The Dr was positive I was nuts.She rolled her eyes and told me it was just my electrolytes and I would get over it. I know now that it was vertigo. For the next year ,if a fluorescent light flickered, or if I tipped my head back to look up, I would just fall over. I was so tired I could barely get through the week.By the end of the year, the symptoms all faded away and I just put it out of my mind..it wasn't until about 5 years after that that I was diagnosed with MS.

Hang in there..Keep a log of symptoms sometimes that helps with a diagnosis.Good Luck
