Hi alena,

You'll find many people who have had to wait and wait (sometimes many years) before MS was diagnosed. Some have even been diagnosed with MS and later had the diagnosis changed. I don't want to alarm you, and I hope that your waiting experience won't last much longer.

The four oligoclonal bands found in your CSF should be significant, and you might want to remind any doctor you see about them. Sometimes doctors don't remember all of the details of a patient's medical history. They may have glanced over the sheaf of papers in your chart but missed something important.

Absent abdominal reflexes may not be so significant, however.

I'm sorry I can't be more helpful, but I don't have any medical training.

Na shledanou! (I know a few words of Czech.)
