Guest guest Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 I've been suffering for about 10 years now with pins & needles from my toes to my chest and from my fingers to my neck, bone grinding pain in every joint, especially my hip sockets, stabbing pains through out every muscle, electrical jolts up and down my spine through to my legs, arms and head, facial palsy, tremors, urinary hesitency and urgency, muscle spasams throughout my body, headaches, blurry vision, buzzing crackle in my ears, burning pain all over my skin, a strange painful stiffness in my spine and muscles. Well, at first I was diagnosed as having too much stress in my life; then diagnosed as depressed and psychotic. Then I had a seizure, a spinal tap was done and was diagnosed with neuro-lyme disease, spinal meningites and possible multiple sclerosis. After a year of IV & oral antibiotics I was still not well. I continued my search for an answer; which ended up being Multiple Sclerosis. I was treated with Copaxone with no relief, but many different doctors didn't want to try anything else because they questioned my diagnosis, but did nothing to find answers to their questions. I've found a new neurologist who has sent me for numerous tests and he comes up with Multiple Sclerosis with a twist. I also have neurosarcoidosis. He's been trying to treat the pain with different anti-seizure, anti-convulsants, diabetic type meds, restless leg syndrome meds, anti-anxiety and depression meds; to no avail. The side effects are horrible and cause more problems. Has anyone found anything the helps with the kinds of pains I've described above?
