Sounds like anxiety: This sounds like you are anxious about your health. A EMG/NCS ( special nerve muscle test) can rule out any serious issues. Ask your Primary Care Provider (PCP) Hope this helps Dr Z

Prob not MS: With the normal MRI tests, it is probably not MS. If the numbness area is large, an EMG may help. You may find this tool helps the information about how to diagnose MS http://www.neurocuro.com/how-do-you-know-if-you-have-ms/

Not MS: Some of your symptoms could be explained by a spinal cord compression, and if not answer, might consider peripheral nerve issue. A neurological exam may be very helpful
