It is my understanding that if a person has thyroid disease they are a good candidate for MS. I believe I have a lot of the symptoms such as: muscle spasm of leg, muscle weakness of leg, difficulty urinating, dizziness, problems with balance, depression, forgetful, unable to concentrate, feeling stupid.
