A member asked:

I am wondering if i may have multiple sclerosis? my symptoms are spinal pain up and down the spine, temporay paralysis, at times sharp pains on the right side of my brain.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not necessarily: The pain up and down spine might signify a lhermitte's but usually electrical tingling rather than full blown pain. The paralysis of ms is usually gradual and progressive over days or longer, and the pains over head may be more consistent with migraines, and perhaps some of the other symptoms associated with this also.. Could consider fibromyalgia. Long and short, see your doctor, get diagnosis.
