Hello my name is Dan. 28 years old, and have lived on Long Island, NY my whole life.

ive been having physical symptoms since im 25, but a few months ago i took a turn for the worst.

For the last three years ive had subtle diminished motor skills with my left hand and left foot. i had MRIs and EMGs which were normal in my brain and spine in 2018 and again in 2019. I was living fine for awhile until late last year.

Between Sep 2020-Present i have developed complete autonomic dysfunction. lightheadness, neuro bladder, cant sweat, heat intolerence, shallow brething, eyes sight problems, slight head tremors, digestive issues, sexual dysfunction,

feel drunk 24/7 without drinking, and overactive reflexes.

I have seen two neurologists in NYC and both have said i dont have MS and im to young for multiple system atrophy. They say i have somatic system disorder.

im fairly certain i have Multiple System atrophy as im getting worst weekly. could this really all be somatic symptoms? I dont think thats possible.
