I was corrected there are no such things as "lesions" they are merely shadows. People with ms I am told don't get headaches. Don't have tremors. Or petite mal seizures. I initially was told I have ms by another dr and then this Dr says you may, you may not. Even if you did I wouldn't treat it. What? So he ordered an mri of the spine. He remarked of my physical strength. Well I KEEP strong. This is frustrating to say the least. It took weeks to get an appt with this guy. He asked no medical history. Perhaps I should get a second opinion. I don't know. Does anyone have anything they can share as far as their own symptoms or side affects? Thanks so much. Stephanie

I'd like to tell that doc - And if you were on fire, I would not try to extinguish you.

He may or may not have a brain. Run, Stephanie, run.

If you watch Mystery DX, people all the time say "If you have to see 100 drs, that's what you do."

I sometimes feel it may take me 100 drs, but that does not make me prefer to settle for one that is not helping. There's no point in paying someone who is not doing everything he can to help me. That is a waste of time and money.
