I am 26 years old and was told at the age of 20 that it seemed that I had been having 'mini strokes'. I went to another neurologist who stated that I have multiple lesions on my brain and that is looks like the beginning stages of MS. I have been told by another doctor that it looks like RRMS. I have numbness and tingling feelings on my left side and my vision has gotten pretty bad in the past few years. I have severe migraines and at times am uncontrollably nauseous. Anyone have any ideas? I can no longer see a doctor due to not having insurance or the money to cover the bill... Again, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Inga, if you could, send me an e-mail to kimmy3722@yahoo.com... would like to see what else you might know. There arent any free clinics around here and no doctors that will let me pay out and some that just will not see you if you dont have insurance. I can always tell when things are getting worse and lately it has been. I have gotten back to the point that I cannot even pick my kids up and I suppose that bothers me more than anything. But as I said, if you would like to send me an e-mail and maybe we could chat a bit about this. Thank you very much.

You may qualify for Medicaid. Call the social security office and inquire. MS symptoms come and go but it is a progressive disease so you do need to work with a Dr. good luck

The numbness in your hands are a true sign of MS starting, you need to see a doctor fast because with out treatment, it can become worst. First your hands go numb then it will be other parts of your body that will tighten up until there will be no movement. See a free hospital I am sure there are some type of help where you reside.

Well, I do have a suggestion, but of course nothing is for free.
Try a one-time treatment called Atlasprofilax. The effect on the self-healing power of the body is simply amazing, experienced it myself. Migraines usually disappear within short notice - and you might be lucky having effects on MS as well.
Just - the treatment is available in California and Europe only, costing approx. 220 dollars, once in a lifetime.

Sounds like classic MS to me. Honestly, if you follow a daily routine, complete with one hour of physical activity a day, you will feel better. It will also slow down the progression of the MS. I also suggest that you get your medical records and apply for aid at your local health department. There is help available to you!
