Hi czhevoo
That is one of the worries weighing on my shoulders now. I've had 3 MRIs, all spinal and the 1st neurologist and 2 other Dr's said I did not have MS.
When I went back to him, he started.talking out of both sides of his mouth, no I don't have it, yes I have it and it's dormant. I got frustrated a asked my PC to recommend another neurologist. The 2nd one I like. He's running an additional MRI, and when I get those results, he will develop a plan of action. To make a long story short, just mentioning MS causes a lot of worry. Find a good neurologist and rheumatologist, they should listen to you and ask any and all questions. I hope your results are negative and a good plan of action is enforced. I will pray for you and I ask you the same for me.
Happy Mother's Day.
