Do I have MS or ALS? none and the doctor has me on the

Hi

Hello?

I'm 28, female, British.Basically, it started with a UTI infection with lead to me having to take Macrobid (Nitro/Floxxy) at the end of May. It didn't clear the infection and at around that time. I can recall my lower back pain worsening and my left hand went numb one day when I was at home chilling.I just remember my hand going numb, I didn't think much of it. Then about two weeks later, the second week of June. I had felt my left hand/arm go numb here and there, again, ignored it. Back pain still very present. I took Cefalexin to clear the UTI which worked and in the same week I remember being in bed. And all of a sudden, I recall my toes/fingers/feet burning all at one. My thighs were throbbing/twitching. My arms hurt too. I just recall full on burning and numbness. That is all I remember and it went on for about four/five days this did. I was in agony and crying so much.After two weeks, things settled. We are in mid June now and all that I am left with are my fingers which feel weird when I curl them, their joints feel firmer? But my hands don't feel weak. My left hand/arm feels more numbish than my right, slightly. I can feel burn/cold/heat ect.

I get random twitches all over my body, lips tingle a little, I have had a tiny tingle in my tongue here and there but that isn't often.My calves can hurt a little if I am walking tons, feet tend to just buzz/pins and needles nowadays. Sometimes they can burn or sometimes I get a shooting pain in a finger.I wake up numb sometimes in my legs and sometimes a hand or the other.Come 13th July, I get a call off my doctor saying I have Pelvis Inflammatory Disease. I shit myself, I am on antibiotics for two weeks. The antibiotics did not agree with me at all. doxycycline and metronidazole made me dizzy, sore neck, stiff shoulders, I was pooping tons, could not eat.I noticed within my last week of taking them, the neuropathy I already had felt worse? Legs hurt more, I was waking up with fully numb hands and legs every morning.The antibiotics are finished now. I only now feel alive again, I do not feel fatigue but I still have back pain, I noticed my legs hurt to walk more now. I am ridiculously dehydrated. The pins and needles sensation still remain in my legs, burning toes/numb feet still happen. My stomach has settled down more now thank god. But my left arm still feels abit more numb than my right.Today I was out and I felt slightly dizzy still though. Could this be MS?Is this the start of ALS?I am just so afraid, it's absolutely horrible feeling like this!

Hi there,
I have had recent blood tests and everything was fine. There was a dip in my vitamin D but the supplements aren’t doing much to stop the neuropathy.My symptoms started two months ago, a numb left hand and lower back pain. Then burning all around my body, throbbing and spasms.Is this how MS and ALS begins?

I had an OCT scan recently and eye test but my eyes are perfect. No problem with my vision. Which worries me it could be ALS because vision isn’t a problem that disease has....Should I have an MRI and EMG test done?

I will try not to...Does als usually start with numbness?

How does bulbar palsy begin
