MS Symptoms are extremely variable and unpredictable. No two individuals have the same MS symptoms, and therefore each individual of symptoms may vary over time. One individual may experience just a few of the potential symptoms while another individual experiences a multitude of them. However, there are some common MS symptoms that everyone with MS should be aware of.
*Foggy Feeling: This is one of the most common MS symptoms. Individuals who have MS often report feelings of fatigue and weakness that often times do not go away. Some people with MS report feeling as though they are going to have a heart attack. They also report feelings of nausea and extreme tiredness. Sometimes people experience numbness and tingling in their hands and feet, which are also common symptoms of MS.
*Tiredness: MS sufferers can be tired all the time and just don’t feel like exercising or working out. Tiredness and fatigue can affect a person’s mental and physical health. In addition, some ms symptoms may include difficulty concentrating, depression, irritability, restlessness, social anxiety and depression.
*Numbness and Tingling in the Legs: MS can cause symptoms of weakness and numbness in the legs, sometimes presenting as a separate condition. MS sufferers may find that the numbness and tingling do not go away when they try to exercise or do simple activities. If you are experiencing multiple sclerosis symptoms, it is important to consult a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis.
* blurred vision: MS can present with a variety of symptoms such as double vision, halos, blind spots, floaters and flickers. MS can cause blurred vision as a symptom or a standalone disease. MS may also present with temporary or permanent blurred vision such as during a night time tunnel vision. The severity of MS symptoms in cases of permanent blurry vision may require the use of special equipment or prescription sunglasses to allow you to see. MS flare-ups can be very damaging to your self-esteem and social life and affect the way people interact with you.
* Hearing and Vision Problems: MS can cause problems with both hearing and sight. MS patients can experience short-term loss of hearing and long-term damage to the eyesight. MS flare-ups can present as deafness, amblyopia (double vision) and strabismus (lazy eye). MS flare-ups that are long-term may require the use of a hearing aid or other treatment. MS symptoms can be very disabling to the point where normal daily activities are affected.
MS symptoms can range from the occasional nuisance such as knocking on a door and hearing music to extremely debilitating. If you or someone you love is having MS symptoms, you may want to consult with a licensed professional to determine the underlying cause of the pain and/or inflammation. Once a cause has been determined, the correct treatment can then be administered to relieve the pain and inflammation.
MS is a chronic and progressive disease that affects the central nervous system and the optic nerve. When multiple sclerosis strikes, it destroys the myelin sheath, which is responsible for transmitting messages between the brain and the rest of the body. Without a myelin sheath, the brain cannot properly send or receive messages. Multiple sclerosis typically develops in people over age 50, although it can affect anyone. MS symptoms associated with inflammation can be confused with other diseases and therefore, proper diagnosis is imperative to treat and manage these inflammation-induced problems.
For example, a neurologist would most likely perform a neurological test known as visual field tests (VFT) to determine if there is a deficiency in the patient’s optic nerve. If the test shows that MS symptoms are caused by the same problem, the neurologist will order an MS test known as a refraction examination. In a refraction examination, the patient’s eyes are placed in a stable, upright position, with the monitor placing tiny drops of medicine under the eyes.
Another example of an MS symptom is numbness and tingling in the extremities. Because MS sufferers lose the ability to move the fingers and toes, they will also experience weakness in the muscles of the legs and feet. The extremities are often affected first, because the hand and feet are used almost every day. Initial MS symptoms may include only numbness and tingling. Over time, weakness and numbness will develop into cramps, which may become more painful. When cramps cause extreme weakness, it can be difficult to perform simple activities.
A final example of symptoms that can occur along with multiple sclerosis diagnosis is pain. MS sufferers are often plagued by pain, especially when doing simple activities like picking up objects or eating. MS pain can range from mild to excruciating, depending on the location of the pain. Some MS sufferers may not even be aware of the pain, while others may be more aware of their condition. Regardless of how severe the pain becomes, it is still important to consult a physician for a proper diagnosis.
