MS Symptoms - Nerve Cell Damage - Oren Zarif

MS symptoms can vary and unpredictable. One individual may experience just one or two of these possible signs while another individual encounters many more. It is also common for different people to have different symptoms. This is due to the fact that the signs of MS can occur in various parts of the body. In some cases, only one specific area or part of the body is affected.

One of the most obvious and commonly experienced MS symptoms is visual disturbances. The person may experience blurred vision. In some cases, the person may experience double vision. When these first signs of MS first appear, they are usually very faint or undetectable. However, as time goes by, their visibility will progressively increase.

Another of the MS symptoms is the onset of hearing loss. In some cases, it is only a few seconds while for other individuals it could be several weeks before the condition advances to a degree where it manifests as hearing loss. Hearing loss is a very significant sign of MS because it greatly affects an individual's ability to hear the sounds around him or her.

It is important to note that hearing loss has very high individual variability. Some people show no symptom while others who experience the condition have to deal with severe hearing impairment. This means that there is no one-size-fits-all answer to the question of how long should an individual wait before consulting a physician about an MS diagnosis. Therefore, it is best to identify and discuss the different MS symptoms with your doctor so that you can determine the best possible course of treatment.

As previously mentioned, other MS symptoms include tremors, which is a rhythmic shaking or trembling of the body that occurs for no apparent reason. Sometimes, the shaking may be triggered by stress or anxiety, which makes it an alarming sign. People with secondary progressive MS may also experience rapid eye movement (REMS) in one or both eyes. The presence of these symptoms indicates the possibility of a stroke that may require emergency intervention.

Another category of MS symptoms includes those that affect the nervous system. These include an inability to control involuntary movements such as twitching, muscle spasms, rigid muscles, uncontrolled crying, increased sensitivity to light, and tingling or numbness in the extremities. If these symptoms are present along with the other neurological abnormalities noted in MS patients, the chances of developing cerebrovascular accident are high. Cerebral hemorrhage, which is caused by swollen blood vessels in the brain and spinal cord, is another potential cause for neurological disability.

The onset of multiple sclerosis is often marked by the appearance of first MS symptoms. However, these symptoms can appear gradually over time, over the course of years. First, a person with MS may exhibit difficulty walking because of severe muscle pain, or brief loss of gait. Second, muscle fatigue is another common effect of MS. MS patients may also experience recurrent headaches, extreme fatigue, or muscle weakness.

In addition, MS symptoms can appear in various forms, depending on the extent of the condition. For instance, myelin damage can result from damage to myelin, the sheath that cushions nerves and is found in the brain and spinal cord. This type of damage can result in a number of motor functions that can be severely affected. Such include walking, swallowing, hearing, seeing, speaking, and writing.

MS symptoms can also occur in the extremities. This includes muscle weakness, fatigue, decreased muscle function, and balance issues. MS patients may also have problems walking. Additionally, they may have trouble sitting up straight, may develop an abnormal stiff neck, or lose their grip on small objects. MS sufferers can also become easily fatigued.

MS symptoms and the later impact of such symptoms depend greatly on the individual's susceptibility to them. While some people are highly susceptible to the damaging effects of MS therapies earlier on, others are less susceptible. Additionally, each individual's body chemistry differs from the next person. This means that each person's level of susceptibility to various MS therapies may be different. For instance, a particular medication may work well for one individual but have little or no effect on another person.

A medical professional should always perform a neurological test if a patient is suspected of having Multiple Sclerosis. This is especially true of those who are taking medications for treating other health conditions such as diabetes or epilepsy. MS treatments should be considered very carefully before a neurologist performs a test to diagnose Multiple Sclerosis. MS symptoms and other neurological symptoms can be very tricky to treat.
