Thank you so much Barb.

Yes, I'm very puzzled because I have read that the pain some poor people suffer with this illness is so bad, they request amputation.

I'm so grateful that I have no pain. I'm still wondering if the pain might come later, ie... no pain in early stages?

Yes. It's the same with MS. Doctors are the luck of the draw. You get those that over diagnose then those that ate the opposite.

Thank you.... I may well ask for a second opinion. I have been referred to a neuro surgeon and will report back.

I'm based in the centre of England.
