If you can get a diagnosis for MS, there's more medication approved, and a bigger support network.... more research, it's essentially a demilenating autoimmune disease that can present differently in different people. Please consider getting a second opinion? Ms has good treatment options, and these other autoimmune diseases have similar issues, but different or fewer treatments.

Autoimmune sucks, sorry that you are going through this....

i believe it’s important to get an accurate diagnosis. a diagnosis that’s inaccurate albeit lots of treatments available…..is unlikely to be an optimal solution.

I have an atypical meningoma and will be seeing an oncology neuro-surgeon next week (per referral of my neuropthamologist.

Today i saw a university ENT to rule out potential of “septic arthritis”. There are lots of strong antibiotics available to treat sepsis—grateful i wasn’t prescribed one—in my case i would have been likely to have had an adverse reaction. Just my opinion, but it is my belief that if a patient doesn’t trust a physician, it’s best to find a physician you trust.

Sorry, looks like a message directed to me that doesn't apply. I don't have MS and would not welcome a diagnosis to that effect. My diagnosis is Clippers.
