MS worry

[Emily Smith]

I posted about this a week or two ago. I’m still getting that weird feeling the front of my stomach, like a strip of a belt is there but it doesn’t hurt or isn’t too tight, just very subtle. It comes and goes. I’m so worried this is MS.
Has anyone ever heard of this with MS? Of had this feeling on and off with anxiety?

This is something that I have not heard of as being a symptom of MS.
I've mentioned here on some previous threads that my mom's best friend has MS, and her first symptom was not anything to close to what you are experiencing. Her first symptom was having trouble with her balance and walking.
I'd chalk this up to your anxiety

Hello Emily Smith. I have a similar feeling in my abdomen as well. I was taking Omeprazole for acid reflux back in March and within a few days of taking it I started feeling this tightness sensation in my abdomen. I continued taking the drug for eight weeks and stopped because someone told me that my stomach tightness might be a side effect of Omeprazole. Now my stomach is numb along with tightness. I too I'm frightened it might be MS or worse.
