Hi MistiC

As most people said the lumbar puncture was not bad--more nervewracking waiting for it then going through it. I didnt' feel any pain (just the first needle putting in the pain killer). Afterwards I had a lower back ache but nothing a few ibuprofen couldn't fix. As far as the results coming back...I did not have the O-bands which apparently 90% of people with MS do. But I had one other abnormality (high IgG index) that pointed to MS. I only have brain lesions.

Good luck!
