Yes, however: you should be seen by a Neurologist & formally diagnosed w/this condition as there are other causes ie TIA &/or stroke that could explain these symptoms.This is considered a medical emergency & you should go to the ER right away if this just occurred. Signs & symptoms of multiple sclerosis vary, depending on the location of affected nerve fibers.They may include:Numbness or weakness on 1 side.

Yes it can: Multiple,sclerosis affect brain and spinal cord and will cause sensory, motor, coordination, and tone problems. Your symptoms could be from MS? But if you have not been diagnosed preciously, see a neurologist for an exam.
