I go between my MS neuro and my PCP, because I often can't see or even speak to the neuro for months.
After I told my PCP "I really need your help, because I can not see my neuro often enough to have continuous care, or get help from him when I need it", he woke right up and became more interested in helping me.
We're trying different medications now to get some symptom relief.
You might try going back to your PCP and telling him something along those lines.
I've said it before, the Canadian medical system isn't all that it is cracked up to be...

I couldn't agree with you more Erika, I'm giving it a week to see if the Baclofen helps then I will be calling for sure.
Last summer I moved from Barrie Ontario (45 minutes north of Toronto) to back home in Windsor Ontario and the medical care is the same..totally frustrating.. timing sucks!
My son comes home from the military on Friday, he doesn't know I have re-lapsed.. I don't want him to worry since he has finals.. and he needs to do well on them.
I hope I don't have to go the steroid route again but my options are slim.
My calves are screaming... I can barely walk.. they are so tight..
