I just posted a note to someone about this same issue. How do you know what is MS and what is not.
Our bodies are very complex and I think it would be a mistake to blame every thing that is going wrong on MS.
Hormones can do a job on our bodies. Giving birth, accidents, the process of aging. Even stress. Life is stressful. Stress can cause major issues with our health.
I don't believe stress is the cause of MS, but I do think it puts our bodies in a weakned state that can trigger things like MS. Anyway....I may be waym off in my thinking, but it is what I believe.
I think you did the right thing by calling both doctors. Let them figure it out if they can.

So how do you know????
Other than MS, I also have Scoliosis, IBS, allergies of all types, Headaches, STRESS, etc.
Im on Cymbalta and Rebif. I recently finished a Rx for steroids after having a bad reaction to meds given to me during a biopsy at my GYN. Not to mention the latex allergy the doctor forgot I had!!!!!
**My headaches are coming back more regularly but not as intense as they use to be.
**Having strange pain in joints or bones
**Soreness in breasts.
**Recurrent sinus/coughing.
**Pain/burning in stomach sometimes.
**Constipation.
**Stressing.
etc.
I put a call into both doctors. The family doctor RN made an appt for me but asked if I thought it was MS related. In which i should check with my neuro. The neuro RN has yet to call back but usually tells me to call my regular doc.
Any suggestions??????
