Thank you for all the great information. I do have another question. Are you on medication and how are you able to function and living a "normal" life?

If they do an LP, they're probably doing it to rule out MS or a pseudo tumor. Both MS and pseudo tumor are diagnosis' of exclusion...which means they have to exclude all the other diseases that can cause the symptoms before they can decide on the proper diagnosis.

Hopefully it's something benign that will go away on it's own without harming you.
