Hey Julie
Just wanted to follow up to see how you were doing. And also relay more of my experience with this.
I had the experience over the past weekend of having a severe reaction to a loud sound (that of my son's friends running in place in his room while playing a wii game). To anyone else this sound would not have bothered them in the least. But for me it induced a feeling of panic and then I began having MS symptoms big time. My whole right side began to convulse.
Later I told my friend about this who has children who have epilepsy and to her it made total sense as the sound was repetitive. This is the big mystery so far with my MS. It seems that both visual and auditory stimuli can provoke neurological responses in me. And the more repetititve the sound or visual...the worse it is.
I am in between neurologists right now but as soon as I see one I am definitely going to be asking what is up with this. I would like to know how to prevent these responses from happening if I could.
Hope you are doing well. Let us know how you are doing.
