here we go again.

Ugh here we go again.  I tried to ignore these symptoms but they are so annoying.  I have had eye twitching for about a month now, not to mention that my legs feel so tight all the time.  I have also been experiencing intermittent muscle twitching.  With all the Yoga and stretching I have been doing my muscles should not feel this tight.  My right leg has been so stiff It is causing me to limp and I am having a bit of trouble with my grasp on that side as well.  (No back pain though, only leg stiffness). I had my boss order me a new MRI which I will have this Saturday.  Should I run to my PCP? will she be able to do something about this? My neuro does not have any openings until next month by that time my symptoms may have gone away.  Although these symptoms are not painful they are very annoying and if there is any neurological crap going on I would like for the Dr. to see it as it is happening, not after the fact.  :/

I called my PCP, she can actually fit me in today which is good.  My eye is what really concerns me, it has been twitching constantly but now I feel "tight" on that side of the face.  I am hoping it is just stress.

Alex, I got on the internet the other morning and I saw an article about how pets help people with MS? I was staring at your pic and I was like "hmmm I know this person....." and then I read further into it and I was like OMG! there is Alex!.  I was going to tell you about it but unfortunately got wrapped up in the day's chaos :)

I would see the PCP they might help with symptoms. Mine did before I was diagnosed with MS. My Neurologist is hard to get into so I see my PCP first.

You may want to see your PCP so that she can document your symptoms. Having them in "MedSpeak" may give added weight when you do see your neuro. My other thought is that a neuro that specializes in MS should be able to diagnose you without current symptoms. By the time I saw my MS doc my symptoms had largely resolved.
