After 3 positive MRI's of lesions on my brain, all other test ware normal, to include the evoked potentials test. Can't believe my left leg nerves are normal.

The only thing I know for sure about my MS symptoms is that caffeine makes them worse, along with drinking too much alcohol. I demanded a Western Blot test.

@NurseNancy. I asked the doc if he could tell if the lesions were dead tissue in my brain, blood clot fragments, etc... He said you can't definitely tell from an MRI.

I've had every MS test there is and nothing, with exception of the positive EEG and MRI's. Sigh! Numbness has substantially subsided in the last week and a half though. Doc wants to send my to the MAYO clinic in Jacksonville now. Put m on anti-seizure meds again, but I refuse to treat the symptoms without knowing the cause. I'm not in pain.
