Hi melinda,

This sounds disturbing, and I know you and your boyfriend are feeling very frustrated. I am not familiar with symptoms as you have described them.


It sounds as if it is time for a serious talk with his doctor. There could be a simple treatment that puts everything back in order. Since there have been three episodes over the past two weeks, it might be time for an early appointment.


Please let us know what happens.

Hi Melinda,

These are very serious symptoms and as Vicki said, they aren't under the MS umbrella. They do sound neurological and perhaps you should have him seen asap. Have his symptoms changed or gotten better in this time? You may want to consider a visit to ER.

Please keep us posted.

Best,

Amy
