Guest guest Posted December 22, 2003 Report Share Posted December 22, 2003 honey, You need to have a scan to see if you have built up some plaque, etc., in your brain. When MS starts to cause difficulty it shows up in a scan. You might want to talk to your Ophthalmologist about Giant Cell. Someone in the group can tell you more. I'll flag the subject line and hopefully she will read it. Can't remember who it was - seems to me it may be Barb but truly don't know. But it has to do with the eyes, pain and vision. You should NOT wait until March to be evaluated. The swallowing could be Thyroid or several other things. As far as the difference between Lupus and MS - if does not respond to this post please write another post and on the subject line write: Attn. and she will get in touch with you. Hugs - a MS Does anyone in the group have MS? How do they tell the difference between MS and Lupus. I have been having some things happen that don't go along with Lupus. Since they know I have a autoimmune disease but they aren't sure of which one. The eye sight in the left eye is coming and going. I have never heard of anyone on here talk about the vision coming and going. Blurred a great deal. Pain with the movement of the eyeball. Also, sometimes I have trouble swallowing. I'm not suppose to go back to the doctor till March but I have a opthalmologist in 3 weeks. I have been to the optometrist twice in the last week but he honestly doesn't know what is going on. So he referred me to the opthalmologist. Any ideas? Thanks Worried about inbox overload? Get MSN Extra Storage now!
