I started having sharp burning pain in the top of my head and my left ear in Jan 09 and a couple days later the back on my head became numb on the left side and then a day or so later my left arm and hand started feeling numb. Soon after, I started having severe itching around my ear and face. I also started feeling like I was going to loose my balance. I saw a neurologist, had a MRI (7 lesions) and spinal tap and was dx with MS. In March 09, I had another MRI because I was trying to be in a study. This MRI showed 2 more lesions. I was removed from the study and started Copaxone 4/09.
