My 24yr old son was recently diagnosed with NMO and I'm wanting to see what information is out there for the disease. Treatment and ect.. I have never heard of this before. He had a headache then lost his vision in one eye then blurry in the other had hospital stay for over a week with steroids they thought it was MS and now they did test and say its NMO. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Hi @vicky1228, welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I am sorry to hear about your son's diagnosis.

Did your son's physician offer any helpful information? How does he feel about the diagnosis?
