Need advice what is going on with me?

I don't what is going on for the past 3 or 4 years I have had tingling sensations throughout various parts of my body. This has been going on for 3 or 4 years I am now 27. Last year I went to the doc complained about it they thought it was stress which it probably was. Later a couple months I got the shingles June 2005. I had the shingles on my back after they healed I still felt some burning sensation around that area but it eventually was bareable and not to bad. Then in May all the other areas where I just had tingling sensations seem to be getting worse now I was feeling burning sensations in my feet and other areas and tingling was much more. Now its june again and I have the shingles again for the 2nd time and the same exact place on the back. The rash has not formed and I went to the doc immediately they gave me valtrex and a shot of kenalog. I am suppose to have an MRI on my brain and spine on the 18 not to mention The shingles I got in June of last year has cause me acid reflux problems so i am having and endoscopy.

What do I have what is wrong with me? am I diabetic do I have ms or is this something else? Any ideas any advice anything at all?

Re: Need advice what is going on with me?

Hi,
Do you have Type I or Type II diabetes? There is a link between Type I diabetes and MS. However, some of your symptoms might also be explained by neuropthy, including the gastrointestinal problems.

I think it a very good idea that you're having an MRI.

Re: Need advice what is going on with me?

I have never heard about the link between Type I diabetes and MS. I am diabetic. I have noticed that just before and during an episode that my blood sugar goes up. I have to increase my oral meds. When the episodes as I like to call them subside my blood sugar goes back to normal range and I have to go back to my original dose of oral meds. If you know when I can find any info on this please let me know. Thank you

Re: Need advice what is going on with me?

simply do an internet search on MS and Type I diabetes and you will find a lot of information. There seems to be a strong link between the two diseases. it is studied in a number of ways. there is a lot of information regarding the diseases and consumption of cow's milk.

I know this sounds terrible in a way, what i'm thrilled to know someone else that has both!!

Re: Need advice what is going on with me?

NO NO NO I am not a diabetic! "What do I have what is wrong with me? am I diabetic do I have ms or is this something else? Any ideas any advice anything at all?"

I am not sure what is wrong with me! All I can say is I have tingling sensations for 3 or 4 years then I got the shingles last june 2005 now its june 2006 and I got the shingles again for the 2nd time exact same month. I just had blood work done my lab work was all fine.

I just had an MRI done on my brain/spine waiting for the results.

i am not a diabetic as far as my lab work shows.

I am trying to see if I have all the symptoms of MS??? what do you think? I guess i need to wait to see my mri but this pain is bothering me alot and im only 27 and it seems to be getting worse.
