Specializes in Cardiac Electrophysiology

There are many: possible diagnoses for the symptoms you are experiencing. MS is possible but not very high on the list. It would be advisable to be evaluated by a health care professional and be examined as well as have some testing performed to exclude more common and less serious diagnoses.
