I Am 46 Years Old And Have Difficulty Walking And

I am 46 years old and have difficulty walking and lose my balance frequently. It is also difficult for me to move fast without falling over. This has been occurring for about 4 years. Of course, the older I get it tends to get worse. There is history of MS in my family. However, after seeing a neurologist and having a CT scan nothing showed up other that severe sinus issues. I had sinus surgery about 4 years ago and had a knee injury at the same time. I have been to PT twice and even visited a chiropractor because I thought that the stiffness in my back was associated with my legs. It helped temporarily for my back, but not my legs. My whole body is often tense, but I felt a little better when I attempted yoga stretches, but I loss my balance numerous times. I almost forgot, occasionally my hip or leg kind of just gives out when I walk. I have never fallen, only stumbled. Sorry for so much info, but I wanted to be as thorough as possible because I am wondering what I should do next. Thanks, Andrea Wheeler
