This was my ENT actually. Although he didn't say "sorry" (he knew it was MS from his own experience in seeing it in the medical world), he asked, "Did you go to University? Did you graduate? You're in for a life long fight". He had the sorry expression on his face.

Maybe he truly did feel compassionate for me knowing all the bs I had been through with doctors tossing me out antibiotic prescriptions and dismissing me before him. Dunno. But I can't dislike the guy. He was the one that 'found' the MS, because he listened and sent me for the MRI. So I do owe him
