My daughter and MS

I was thinking about this disease and my daughter.  I know that it hasn't been proven that MS is a genetic disorder but many times if someone in the family has it there is a greater chance that others in the family can also get it.  And it is more common in women than men.  I know of someone that has MS, as well as her mother and 2 sisters.  Now that makes me worry about my daughter, GOD bless her.  She is only 8 and she can be a drama queen and strives for attention.  It's the curse of being the middle child and the only girl.  So when she complains about her aches and pains, GOD forgive me, but sometimes I'm not sure I believe her all the time.  I don't know if she is striving for attention and if I give it to her over ever ache and pain, that may or may not be real, she will learn that in order to get attention from me she has to be sick.  That is not a lesson I want my daughter to learn.  I guess my best advice to myself would be to find ways to give her attention to satisfy her need for attention, which I try to do. 

Now I am also concerned about these aches and pains because I'm worried about her developing MS.  I don't know the likelihood of her getting it as a child.  I don't know if she is always copying some of my aches and pains that she sees me with. Example: My right tendon can get stiff out of nowhere and it becomes hard for me to bend my foot, it also resolves itself out of nowhere.  Well, when this 1st happened to me the very next day she was complaining of the same ailment.  She can see how sometimes I can get confused, and she has acting the same way.  My legs get numb easily and then when the blood is coming back into it they hurt.  I'm not sure if it is normal for your limbs to hurt after they are numb but this happens to her a lot also. 

She was complaining about her neck hurting when she puts her chin to her chest, which she has to do when I am putting her hair in pigtails, so I took her to the doctor, explained my concerns, they gave her an x-ray and didn't see anything wrong in her neck, the doctor said it could be stiff because of the way she sleeps.  I also complained because I think she trips more often then a person should when they are walking on a smooth surface.  The pediatrician sent me to an orthopedic doctor because she is pigeon-toed.  The orthopedic explained to me she is pigeon-toed because of her hips, it's nothing that a brace can correct but it shouldn't make her trip, he explained to me that some people are just "not as graceful" as other people.  So I guess he was trying to politely say that maybe she is clumsy.  She complains about headaches.  The doctor said she probably needs to drink more water, she could be constipated, she needs to lose a little weight, she may be getting headaches because of her vision.  So now she has glasses.  I thought maybe she had sinus problems like me that are causing her headaches but still I am concerned.  I don't want to speak any ailments on her but I don't want to overlook anything either.  GOD help me.   She is only 8.
