Does MS Cause Headache, Tingling And Numbness In Lower Lip With Clunky Arms?

hi there, i was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis 7 years ago, but three times over the past year I have had strange symptoms, about every 40 mins or so I get them in this order, pain in the left side of my head, the lower left lip tingles and goes numb , then my left arm and leg feel clunky and as if they are turning ..it feels really quite horrible but it only lasts a day or two , just wondering whether its anything to be concerned about , thank you in advance

Neurologist,  's  Response
Your symptoms are quite consistent with the diagnosis of MS. There is medication for this condition. Of course, most people are concerned about these feelings because they are uncomfortable, sometimes very painful, and get in the way of a person's ability to function, drive a car, walk around unimpeded, etc. If you'd like a more personal and indepth consultation to review your options in medications and other interventions then, please write directly to me for a consult at: bit.ly/drdariushsaghafi

I am a neurologist, primarily for adults and deal with MS quite extensively in both private as well as academic institutions.
