With some of the neurological and disturbing neuromuscular stuff that was going on after I got the celiac dx, I was concerned about the possibility of MS.

Know what else is associated with ataxia, and a number of other neurological signs that B vitamin deficiencies can cause? Yeah.

(And what else too often gets inappropriately treated as a psych problem? You got it.)

A bunch of autoimmune things and B12 deficiency are all listed as things to rule out, which can be mistaken for MS.

And I was/am in the demographic most likely to be diagnosed with MS. Pretty sure that wasn’t the problem, but it very well could have been. And by that point, I was afraid to get it checked out.
