hi jan,

i don't think of numbness being a primary sx (symptom) altho it's very common. i was dx'd (diagnosed) by my neuro exam, an abnormal emg of my legs, my clinical sx's and my brain mri which had 6 lesions.

then, some time after that i had a c-spine mri which had 2 lesions, and an LP in which i had 2 O-bands.

have you had a spinal tap?

sometimes lesions aren't in a "typical" place.
maybe you could get another opinion from someone outside this office.
are they MS specialists?
