chaos - I did have an MRI and he saw the results, but he said after the exam and probing my issues, said it wouldn't have been 100% necessary, but its part of the diagnostic progress. It was the most brutal 6 months waiting to see my neuro, but in the end it worked out for me. Definitely worth the wait.

The pain problem is definitely best left for a neuro with MS specialty. My PCP gave me a prescription and all it did was make me worse. Showed me he really had no idea how to treat the nerve pain. My neuro was able to give me a script for all my general symptoms that the Avonex wouldn't cover, all in 1 pill. And have been feeling much better since. Another reason I would always wait to see a specialist because some neuros just don't have a clue, and for a fact cant even prescribe the MS DMDs.

Hope you get sorted soon, because limbo land sucks!
