Please please get a second opinion. Time for another MRI it sounds like, and make sure they do the spine. Some ppl only get lesions in the spine, and that could explain some of your s/s. Also, have you had an LP? Go to a neuro, or to a diff MS specialist. He doesn't sound much of a specialist, my general neuro did more testing on me than you got from your specialist.

The EMG, if anything was wrong with that, it would show more of a muscular/nerve problem rather than a neuro problem. Make sure you get those results along with EVERYTHING else and take to a new doc. Actually, when you make the appt, fax everything to them so s/he has time to review it, and more time during the actual appt to talk to you and order whatever you need. Please be your on advocate. Push for answers. Take nothing than the best, and ALWAYS get results to your tests. Educate yourself on what the tests are being done for, so you have your own arsenal of ammunition. That way you can MAKE them take you serious.

Good luck. I hope someone tells you what you need to hear soon, so you can get to the living and management phase of whatever is wrong!
