This is the fifth time in less than a year you have been on some type of Steroid's - each time it fixes the problem, that is a sign of MS along with every one of your sx, I am sorry to say but you have MS. It is time to slow this down if we can and I can't wait any longer and either can you."

What a kind doctor! Trying to find a way to help you since he knows you have no insurance. I wish there were more doctors out there with that bedside manner. When I told mine I had no insurance he just sort of shrugged like "oh well, your problem not mine".
