I’ve had a weird pain in my leg since 2018. Started off as feeling like I had a knot, circle of pulled muscle. This has never gone away. I’ve seen a physio for it some time ago and got given calf stretching exercises to do and told to foam roll, I’ve had acupuncture and cupping. It hasn’t got better and I’d say has got significantly worse over the last 6-8 months.
my calf muscle is noticeably tighter than my other one and at night it seems to spasm, like really throb. I can’t cope with the pain at night, keeps me awake some nights. The last 3-4 months I have pins and needles nearly permanently in the foot on that side and sometimes up my calf. I’m starting to feel quite unsteady on my feet.
something Made me think of MS the other day and I googled it and when looking at symptoms it says people with Ms can have bladder problems and I’ve had bladder problems for years and am under a consultant for this. I also have slightly blurred vision, the optician says with my glasses my vision is 20/20 but I can’t read subtitles on the tv 10ft away from me.
I’ve made a gp appt but can’t get seen for two weeks. If they agree it could be MS will I have to wait months and months for a neurology referral or will the GP send me for an MRI while I’m waiting?
