DO I HAVE MS ???
Posted , 2 users are following.
I have had several falls in recent months. I have no body strength and my wife has to help me shower dress and sometimes help me get up from a chair. I can now only walk short distances when I go out for my daily walk and feel very tired and weak all the time. When alone if I fall I stay on the ground because my body has no strength to get up
I have had cardio tests at the hospital and today I spoke to a Cardiologist who says my symptoms are not cardio and almost
certainly neurological. I have high blood pressure but he does
not want to adjust medication until I have been assessed by a
Neurologist.
But as a final cardio check he will arrange for me to have a
Tilt Test. There will be a delay because he does not consider
it urgent.
I have been waiting since January for an appointment and
now my June appointment has been postponed until July.
I have been put on the list for a cancellation.
Has anyone had similar symptoms?
If not MS what else could it be?
Any advice welcome as I am very anxious awaiting the neurology
appointment
Thanks
Steve

It could be a good sign that the doctors are not rushing to see you. It is was a massive problem, then doctors would make space for you, and make you an emergency.
