Thank you, NurseNancy.

The MRI was with and without contrast. I had an LP on June 3, 2014. The only remarkable thing on the LP was this about the O-Bands:The patient's CSF contains 3 well defined gamma restriction bands that are also present in the patient's corresponding serum sample, but some bands in the CSF are more prominent. This pattern is associated with Guillain-Barre's syndrome, peripheral neuropathy or increased permeability of the blood-brain barrier secondary to infection or trauma. Oligoclonal bands are present in the CSF of more than 85% of patients with clinically definite multiple sclerosis (MS).

So, I am still waiting for my neuro to call me about the results. Since a cold front is coming in tonight and we are expecting a hard freeze by morning, I will reach out to his office tomorrow. I plan to stay in tomorrow.
