Another new thing popped up tonight, as I was typing to the left my vision was like a flashing light, almost strobe like....just lasted a few minutes. Also, the buzzing feeling is also now in my left foot.

So confused as to what is wrong w me

please go see a Neurologist...your symtoms still dont sound like MS, but they certainly dont sound normal.
I do think that anxiety and stress could be causing some of them, but when it comes to your eyes- its time to get checked out.

Thanks MS. I got a bunch of blood work done and have an appt to see a neuro on 7-8. I am starting to think I have lyme disease......

You very possibly could and you might want to check out the Lyme board on healthboards for more info..
please DO know that Lyme will show up as both false positives and negatives..meaning that where they send the blood to be checked is VERY important..most local labs, cannot guarantee the results of Lyme testing.
Look into Igenex, in California, which is wher most Neurologists will send blood work for a positive answer...
good luck.

Thanks MS, I will. The only thing is I have not had any type of rash. I know I should stop obesessing with what is wrong with me, but waiting a wk for blood results is a long time when you are not feeling "right".

Thanks so much...............
