Not MS: You seem to have a constellation of issues, none of which would prompt me to consider MS. Sounds like a predominate problem within GI tract, and would look for malabsorption syndromes, Celiac disease, etc. The left arm and thumb are due to a different problem, perhaps. Have your doctor thoroughly evaluate.
