  1. Your question is very vague, and I don't quite understand why you'd pick Multiple Sclerosis as your cause for concern. Regardless, I'll let you know a bit about it.

    MS is a complicated autoimmune disease that has a variety of symptoms. That includes:

    Fatigue

    Numbness

    Walking (Gait), Balance, & Coordination Problems

    Bladder Dysfunction

    Bowel Dysfunction

    Vision Problems

    Dizziness and Vertigo

    Sexual Dysfunction

    Pain

    Cognitive Function

    Emotional Changes

    Depression

    And less commonly:

    Speech disorders

    Swallowing Problems

    Headache

    Hearing Loss

    Seizures

    Tremor

    Respiration / Breathing Problems

    Itching

    I know from personal experience that MS is a difficult disease to live with. It's complicated, and rest assured, if you had MS, chances are you would've been diagnosed a long time ago.

    Don't worry about "feeling not so well" though.

    I'm sure it's nothing to worry about, but if you're not convinced, I strongly suggest you visit your doctor.

  2. Don't worry yourself into any condition! If 10 fays of self-treatment haven't improved your condition, time to see a doctor.

  3. I was diagnosed 1 1/2 ago with ms.  My major symptoms were extreme fatigue...and before i was diagnosed, i was getting migraines, 7-24 for 2 months straight.  I went to a neurologist to make sure i had no brain tumors, and the mri showed 25 legions on my brain, which you will find if you have ms.

    I did have lose of balance and a lot of muscle pain.  Everyone with ms experiences symptoms differently.  some dont have any symptoms.

    Be firm with your doctor if you suspect ms.  You might have to go through a lot of other testings first.

    i hope you dont have ms.

    if you have any more questions, please feel free to ask me.

  4. In my case, I had a couple years of strange events.dizziness, numbness, balance issues,but nothing seemed to really last.About the time I would decide to see a Dr then the symptoms would go away.

    I had an attack of vertigo that lasted several weeks,I did go to the Dr but she kind of poo pooed me .She rolled her eyes and told me I had the flu and would get over it so I pretty much ignored it for several more years.

    When 98 % of my body was numb I could no longer ignore it , I found a different Dr who referred me to a Neurologist that diagnosed me

    After many years I have settled into a pretty normal life. I am still a klutz ! if there is something to trip on , I will find it! I do also tend to tire more quickly than the average person,but I really have very few limitations.

  7. "I'm always feeling not so well" is vague.  Run a search for "symptoms of MS".
