Conversation: The conversation between human and AI assistant.
[|Human|] About three weeks ago I felt tingling on outside of my arms, numbness spreading around my face and mouth, chills and deep anxiety. A few days later I felt a tight band around my head and my top jaw felt as if it were clenching. My memory is noticeably bad. Sometimes I cant find a word I know or miss-call a name. When I exercise my muscles dont seem to ache as they used to.My doctor thinks its anxiety but I now fear M.S. My blood results were all fine. What do you think?
[|AI|]  Hi, Thank you for posting your query. The symptoms you have had are non-specific and could occur in MS as well as other neurological problems. To qualify as an attack of MS, the symptoms should last for at least 24 hours duration. Also, the new symptoms should occur after a gap of 30 days or more, to be classified as another episode of MS. In any case, if in doubt, doing an MRI of brain and spine would exclude MS. Best wishes, Chat Doctor.
