Question : What are the early symptoms of MS? My email address is YYYY@YYYY
Brief Answer:
hard question
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thank you for your question.
There are many symptoms that can be early signs of MS.
Common early signs are dizziness, tremor, visual disturbances (especially double vision), numbness, tingling and weakness.
Because MS can affect any part of the central nervous system, the symptoms can manifest in many ways. Sometimes they come and go and sometimes they just get worse and worse.
If you think that you or someone you know has symptoms of MS, they should see their doctor and get a referral to a neurologist as soon as possible.
MS is sometimes hard to diagnose and the neurologists are the best ones to make that diagnosis.
Please let me know if you have further questions.
