Trouble swollow because of mucus, fatigue, and body numbness. havent done a mri of spine yet. is this ms? had symtoms when i was 3 or 4?

Your symptoms, as described, are nonspecific. You must start with an examination by your primary care MD & only then can appropriate testing and referral to proper specialists be carried out rather than jumping in with an MRI of the spine.
