MS Symptoms are unpredictable and variable. One individual may experience just one or few of the possible signs while the other individual experiences several more. Occurs in about 80 percent of all individuals, which can severely impede the ability to function normally at work and home, and can be the most prominent sign in an individual who otherwise has very minor motor skill limitations. Because MS is a complex disease, not every person with MS symptoms shows all the signs of MS.
MS Symptoms can be divided into two categories, central and peripheral. If MS affects the central nervous system, then it is generally referred to as central MS. MS that affects the peripheral nervous system involves the nerves from the spinal cord and brain, or the brain and spinal cord. People who experience central MS have a difficult time sleeping, experience fatigue and muscle weakness, have problems concentrating, may experience short or long-term memory loss, or may experience weakness in the extremities such as the fingers and toes. People with peripheral MS also have a difficulty sleeping, experience fatigue, pain and/or numbness, difficulty concentrating, may experience short or long-term memory loss, or weakness in the extremities.
MS Symptoms can be warning signs for other underlying health conditions as well, especially if one person experience the same symptoms but in different places on their body, or in different time intervals. The warning signs for MS may include chronic fatigue syndrome, Lupus, tuberculosis, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, anemia, hypertension, unexplained fever in pregnancy, heart disease, or unexplained weight loss. Many of these conditions often co-occur with multiple sclerosis, so it’s important to make note of any unusual health changes that you may be experiencing. If you experience one or more of the warning signs listed above, it’s a good idea to make an appointment with your doctor to ensure that your condition is not a sign of MS and get the correct treatment for the appropriate health condition.
MS Symptoms can change over time as the disease progresses. Early symptoms often don’t become apparent, while other stages or later stages of the disease may cause an individual’s MS symptoms to worsen. One stage of MS has been described as a ‘mild’ form of the disease with less than ten percent of patients showing signs or symptoms. Other forms of MS have been described as ‘serious,’ ‘immediate,’ or ‘acute.’
MS Symptoms can range from mildly annoying to severely debilitating. Aching and pain are two of the most common complaints of MS sufferers. Frequent urination, fever, loss of appetite, muscle weakness, lack of concentration, and loss of balance are also common symptoms. Some people may experience numbness, tingling, paralysis, or unconsciousness. MS Disease has also been linked to vision problems, hearing problems, a feeling of always being cold, poor circulation, and problems with swallowing. All of these conditions can lead to other medical issues and require immediate medical care.
There are many common symptoms of MS. However, MS often begins in the central nervous system, where nerve fibers and other tissues begin to experience damage, causing imbalance and abnormal behavior. Common symptoms of MS include difficulty with speech, writing, seeing, hearing, moving, swallowing, and control of bodily functions. There are many other less common symptoms, however, including difficulty walking, clumsiness, balance problems, frequent urination, fatigue, shortness of breath, neck stiffness, and skin rashes.
Some MS symptoms are similar to or are the same as symptoms of other illnesses, such as fibromyalgia, diabetes, alcoholism, and hyperactive thyroid. Some MS symptoms are unique to the disease. For example, spasticity is common in people with MS. MS spasticity can be classified by either permanent spasms, spasticity caused by stress, or spasticity caused by muscle contractions.
There are several ways to tell if someone may have MS. MS symptoms often become apparent prior to the onset of optic neuritis, which can often be difficult to diagnose. When the condition is suspected, vision tests are performed and MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scans are performed to identify where exactly the inflammation is occurring. If you or someone you know has been experiencing any of the following MS symptoms, see your family doctor or optometrist for a proper diagnosis.
