Hi, I am new here.
I am having trouble at the moment as I have MS.
I almost fainted in Morrisons yesterday. Gosh I felt such a fool...

I was dx with MS in 2004 and I am on Avonex injections along with 21 tablets a day. I have symptoms on a daily basis, not always the same.

Yesterday I had a searing pain in my stomach then my eyesight started to change, my hearing went dull, I started to sweat and I knew I was going to faint. By this time my face was tingling and I knew I had to get to the benches or I was going to hit the floor. I remember shoving my trolley at someone and saying I'm going to faint, they took me to the bench and this feeling I had took ages to pass. My arms were heavy as were my legs. My neck and shoulders ached. My daughter came to pick me up and I went to bed when we got home. In the evening I had a very bad upset stomach and had to go 4 times!!

I feel totally drained today have many of my "normal for me" tingles and numbness. Is this my MS or do I have something else?

Sorry for such a long introduction!! hahaha

Bye for now
Alison :) *cg20

I'm sorry you're not well. :( Have you had an MRI recently? I think I'd start with that, and make sure to get the neck as well as the head.


Good luck!
