Guest guest Posted April 5, 2001 Report Share Posted April 5, 2001 When I first got sick from my implants I thought I had MS too. I had some numbness and tingling, weakness, but mostly it was the blurred vision, double vision, halucinations, and spaced out dizzy brain fog that made me think I had MS. Well a year and a half later, numerous trips to neurologists, rhuematologist, psychiatrists etc.....I have had my implants taken out and many of the brain symtpoms have improved. For me I know it was the implants. I would love to hear from you so feel free to write me if you want to here more. They tried to tell me that I was crazy too I AM NOT In @y..., " Patty " <faussettdp@m...> wrote: > ... this is another one from 's board ... if you choose to > > answer her, please respond to her e-mail address, below, or go to 's > site and post it there. > > > > http://www.implantinfo.com/cgi-local/index.cgi?read=326111 > > Multiple Sclerosis-like symptoms?
