My spine is Swiss cheese in both the cervical and thoracic areas. Worse than my brain actually. Yes, they’ve caused numerous symptoms over the years when active, mostly sensory in nature which I know makes me very, very lucky. They actually worked me up for devic’s disease because I had such a concentration of lesions in my spinal cord as opposed to my brain. Numbness, tingling, right leg weakness at times, electric shock sensations, “buzzing” sensations etc have all been symptoms I’ve experienced. Hope that helps!
I do, I have issues when I stand a while even when I sit. But I also have arthritis in my left hip dont know if it's the lesions or other things. @A MyMSTeam Member
yes-constant tingling, needing to either stand up or sit down frequently.
Yes to both as they have resulted in SPMS which has left side weakness and left foot drop.
