Me too, RW. I walked away with "You've probably had MS for a very long time." Okay, maybe -- but maybe not.

After dx I would tell people that the shortest route to an MS dx is ON if there is evidence on the MRI to support it. I still feel that way for the most part and have even helped one person finally get a dx because of that BUT I have since seen many cases similar to mine where the doctors have not been willing to render a dx, I think possibly because of the absence of relapses.

An LP was never even mentioned...not that I'm complaining!
