MS Symptoms vary according to the MS condition. There are four classifications of MS: relapsing remitting, symptomatic and mixed. Relapsing remitting MS (RRMS) is the least common type of MS. It is characterized by remitting disease activity that disrupts the patient’s daily life. Clinically separated syndrome (CIS): When a patient has his or her first episode of MS-like symptoms, most healthcare providers categorize it into CIS. Relapsing remitting MS is sometimes subdivided into:
Faceted-swelling of lymph nodes and fatigue: The MS symptoms in this case are intense fatigue, lymph node enlargement and swelling. Patients usually complain of pain in the upper-body part, especially on the left side of the body. They also say that they feel weak throughout their body. This form of MS is considered as the least common kind of MS because the initial stages of MS cause destruction of protective cells found in the brain and the central nervous system.
In addition, when a person experiences a relapse, he or she may experience severe musculoskeletal pain, loss of strength, numbness, weakness in the legs and toes, and fatigue. In some cases, patients may experience brief periods of unconsciousness, although this kind of MS symptom is rare. Another MS symptom that can affect the nerves and brain is spasticity. In spasticity, a patient may experience muscle weakness or spasms.
Spasticity can also affect a person’s psychological well-being. It causes the person to withdraw from society, making it difficult for him or her to work, care for himself or herself and even to get out of bed in the morning. MS spasticity can affect children more than adults, and it does not only manifest itself as muscle weakness or spasms. Some other common ms symptoms include:
* Stress and depression: Stress and depression are two of the most widespread MS symptoms. MS sufferers are commonly depressed but the degree of depression and its persistence vary greatly. A child who suffers from MS may often times cry, whine and experience anxiety attacks. On the other hand, adults who experience MS attacks are almost always depressed but they do not seem to show signs of clinical depression.
* Nerve damage and neurologic relapses: When MS sufferers experience sudden and irreversible losses of motor skills and other functions, they become disabled. This impairment is not only caused by the destruction of motor neurons but it is also caused by the destruction of the brain tissue. This might seem ironic but MS has the potential to cause a lot of damage to the body parts that are placed near the spinal cord and nervous system. It is important for patients and doctors alike to be aware of this potential for neurologic relapses, which are sometimes mistaken to be nerve damage due to loss of signals to the brain. MS neurologists and doctors should always keep the patient’s medical history and consult with each other on the possibility of neurological damage and relapse.
* Fatigue: MS is known to cause a wide variety of symptoms that include, fatigue, blurred vision, double vision, decreased smell and taste, bowel problems, mood swings, lack of concentration, speech problems, personality changes, muscle weakness and numbness, and irritability. This last symptom is arguably the widest one as it is often misdiagnosed as a sign of aging or related conditions. MS symptoms such as fatigue can range from mildly fatigued to a debilitating level. It is imperative that patients suffering from MS symptoms to visit a neurologist to ensure that the underlying cause is diagnosed.
* Muscle spasms: MS is also known to cause muscle spasms that can range from mild to severe. MS spasms can be caused by many things such as spinal stenosis, multiple sclerosis (MS), strokes, multiple sclerosis patients or brain injuries. MS spasms are typically the result of the body’s reaction to toxins and other things that are outside of the nervous system. MS symptoms may include uncontrollable muscle twitching, tics, rigidity or weakness, or muscle spasms. These symptoms may not affect one person differently from another, but it is important to remember that everyone’s symptoms are different. MS spasms can cause difficulty with daily activities such as swallowing, moving, bending, and speaking.
