Hi, In the past year I have started to lose my balance. I have always had balance issues but this is different. Just standing still is a risk. My iron is non existent even taking iron pills. My b12 is on the low end of normal even with taking 5000 mgs a day. I have every single symptom of MS and that scares the crap out of me. I don't know if this is a place for me but it's worth a shot.

      Have you been to a neurologist to be diagnosed for MS? I was not sure by the phrasing in your statement. If so, perhaps changing medication might help.

      no I haven't. I can't even get the RNP to believe me when I tell her she's seen me in the middle of a focal seizure. Or that my b12 might not be under 300 but in my family we start having nonexistent iron when the b12 it gets below 650. I go in later this month for an Iron Study. I've been making near daily notes of things like my leg doesn't want to move today and why is my right leg only numb from my knee down? It went numb while standing. Eventually two things will happen. She will decide there is nothing she and her little clinic can do for me and send me to a specialist and hubby's enrollment for his insurance will role back around in June and he can add Mr. No one is doing anything until I have insurance.
