MS has always been a big fear of mine too. I have had tests, but still sometimes worry over it. The last bout of multiple doc visits for me, I said (it was new doc for me), "what about MS?"

Ashlynn, another suggestion.... Have you seen a chiropractor? I went to seen one a few weeks ago. Xrays showed I had a sublaxation in my neck (basically, my neck is not straight which can put pressure on nerves). I don't really have heavy head symptoms, but my anxiety does give me tension headaches ...

Charlie Brown, you and I could be the same. Besides my tingling, etc., I have chest tightness, and worries on my swallowing. I also have asthma (since I was a kid). I do find that a .25 Xanax helps there.

I have had all the same heart-related tests as you in the last 1 1/2 months and my heart is ...
