Her symptoms are not typical of MS so it is a remote possibility. In addition there are a lot of less-serious causes that can explain her symptoms.

Dr. Youssef El Bitar Orthopedic Surgery
There are multiple causes for the symptoms you are describing including nerve compression, vascular disease, diabetes and others. Anxiety and stress can also be a cause, however all the other causes should be ruled out first.

Dr. Mostafa Odeh Psychiatry
Dear Sir,
Tell your wife not to be afraid, because MS usually doesn't present itself in this way. I think her doctor is not in favor of this possibility as well, otherwise, he would have asked for a brain MRI and not cervical MRI.
