New here, struggling with my belief that I have MS

[monique413]

Hey guys,
Came here because I feel like I can relate to a lot of the people on this site. A little bit about myself, I am a 22 year old female  , biology major (graduating in one semester) and suffer from chronic anxiety. Now on to why I struggle with my fear that I have MS: it all started a few months ago when my legs would fall asleep constantly and I would get EXTREMELY painful charlie horses (cramps)  in my legs.  This lasted about two weeks and then went away. A few weeks ago, during finals week, my left eyelid started twitching, and this annoying twitch lasted two weeks. Now, I am starting to feel like my face is getting twitchy, and I will wake up in the middle of the night with my arms and legs completely asleep and super numb and tingly.  This will happen to me a couple times a night, and now even during the day, my arms and legs will start to get numb and tingly, and my legs will get random pains.
 I am SOOOO terrified that I have MS or some type of neurological problem, and its all I can think about lately. It drives me crazy and drives me to the point of panic attacks. I cant even fall asleep anymore because my body falls asleep so easily and wakes me right up anyways. Can someone please help me
