Default I am scheduled to have new MRI's Thursday

Hello All,

3 years ago I started the long trip of being diagnosed with idiopathic small fiber neuropathy. It started in my toes, went up my leg to mid-leg. The pain is horrible. I am constantly fatigued which, of course, is exacerbated by the pain meds. Then I started having bladder problems this year so went through a series of tests for that. My urologist was surprised I did not have a dx of MS because my bladder was, in his words, an MS bladder. I cannot void completely. He called my neuro, I went to see her and badda-bing, I'm scheduled for 3 MRI's to catch me from head to toe.

Has anyone heard of MS showing up after a dx of neuropathy was made?? My neurologist says it's certainly not common but can happen. Oh, and I'm pretty old as well - 53.

Any comments?

Thanks,
nancy-h
