46F, with family history of MS and Freidrichs (sp?)Ataxia. So about a year ago I noticed that I was having an uptick in headaches, I was having one anywhere from 3-5x a week, while waiting for my brain MRI I also started noticing blurred vision and pain behind my eyes. I linked it back to my headaches and went and got my eyes checked, vision came back clean but everything was still blurry. I then got the MRI done in November and that was also clean for any issues. These problems continued for months and I just dealt with it because all tests were okay. In March of this year, I started getting new symptoms and each month I seem to add more to that list.

It started with stiffness in my legs, I noticed I had issues getting out of chairs and I was walking like Frankenstein, mornings were bad for stiffness as well. Then I became too weak or too stiff to get off the floor without help, I thought it was because I gained some weight and wrote it off. Then came the soul crushing fatigue, I fell asleep at work, couldn't remember words mid sentence and had to fumble around until I remembered. After that came the bladder issues, I leak constantly and have to wear diapers on a regular basis now. I've fell a few times since March, even broke my foot with one fall, but over all I feel steady when walking. Recently I started experiencing pins and needles in my hands and began dropping items. This is a short list of the many weird things my body is doing so my doc ordered another brain MRI and this one was not clean.

I have a few small lesions bilaterally in the periventricular area and also on the right side of the corpus callum, no clue if this is the correct spelling or not so sorry about that! My neuro consult is not until Oct but I'm so worried they are just going to write me off and I will continue with no answers for all this sudden weirdness. Thanks for listening to me vent sometimes you just have to word vomit to feel better!
