I saw the neuro this morning and left there with several referrals. It seems like he feels there is something going on.

Referral #1 - Neuro-Opthalmologist for the abnormal eye movements and my vision problems with the computer.

Referral #2 - Neuro who specializes in balance problems.

Referral #3 - Neuropsychologist for retesting to see how much I'm slipping.

Referral #4 - Occupational therapy for my hand problems with writing / keyboarding.

Then, I have to get a new brain MRI and then he also ordered IVSM for after all of the above to see if I get good benefits out of it like I used to, but he really wants all of the testing done first. I'm going to be a busy girl.
Sounds like you have a good doc! While all the testing is going to be a pain, it can only help to give a clearer picture as to what is going on!

I've learned to always make an appointment with my eye guy when I was relapsing. He was the one who suggested MS right at the start when I had ON and I trust him completely when it comes to getting to the root of my eye stuff. I even went to a neuro-opthalmologist once and he didn't catch what my regular guy did.

Hugs to you, ya lil pincushion! I hope things get better for you soon! Let us know how it goes.
