Brief Answer:
Brain related conditions should be assessed too.

Detailed Answer:
Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.

Your symptoms point at brain disfunction except general part of fatigue and muscle soreness.

In my opinion you need a careful clinical,neurological examination and laboratory tests as well in order to evaluate or exclude any brain related disorder.

These include meningoencephalitis, systemic infections ( viral and bacterial) that affect brain too, systemic autoimmune diseases that include nervous system ( Vasculitis, lupus etc).

Another thing to evaluate is immune system and diseases that may weaken it (HIV, viral infections, leukosis etc) and any chemical intoxication.

Laboratory tests include blood work panels, autoantibodies, brain imaging ( MRI with gadolinium).

Fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome should be included in differential diagnosis too.

So I suggest you to consult a Neurologist and discuss above mentioned possibilities.

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Brief Answer:
Brain MRI is needed.

Detailed Answer:
Hi again.

Multiple Sclerosis is a autoimmune disease and should be assessed as a possible cause of your symptoms.

In this moment a brain MRI with gadolinium is indispensable to achieve a correct diagnosis and narrow the research field.

Hope this helps. If you have further questions feel free to ask.
