I'll go and hunt it down as soon as I'm able.
I read about this before, but got the liquid magnesium (probably a laxative). Did not help at all.

I did go for the pre op appointment this morning and discussed with the examining physician my concerns. He told me that I could have the surgery even if my neuro recommends IVSM treatments, which is exactly the opposite of what the surgeon told me. Made me more confused.

I went through with the blood work up and all that anyway just in case this dissipates.

thanks for the advice...and the hugs. MS is a strange cookie, isn't it?
