Guest guest Posted February 26, 2006 Report Share Posted February 26, 2006 Hi guys. My name is Jill and this is my first post. I am 36 YO. I had saline implants in April of 2005. In August of 2005 I had some knee issues/pain. I was told I had chondromalacia of the patella and given anti-inflammatory medication as well as a cortisone shot that provided great relief. In February of 2006, I woke up one day with right arm pain that in a few days time developed into complete numbness. Medical attention ensued and I have been unofficially diagnosed as having Multiple Sclerosis. I have an MRI of my brain and cervical spine that shows lesions. (two on my brain and one on my spinal cord) I am awaiting the results of a spinal tap. The neurologist seemed a bit baffled by my MRI of my brain. He wouldn't definately say that I did indeed have MS. Anyway..this all seems so surreal to me. I was perfectly healthy my entire life. I had a CAT scan of my brain in 2002 for some migraines that I was having and it was clean. I then gave birth in 2003 and had no MS attack following. (usually MS flares up postpartum) Fast forward to having implants in 2005 and then ending up with MS or MS like symptoms in 2006 and something seems array to me??? Has anyone here had a limb go completely numb? What about brain lesions or a spinal cord lesion? Thanks..sorry this is so long. Jill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
