welcome to NT shorty (can i call you that?),

it sounds like you've done a masterful job of being your own best advocate.
all the above advice is sound.
i third the opinion to get another opinion, preferably from an MS specialist.
you can call your local MS society for referrals.

keeping a timeline journal of dates and sx's will help the dr with your H&P (history and physical).

and, always keep copies of mri results (cd's), reports and copies of office visit dictations. if you ever see other drs, or even apply for ssdi at some time, your own records will be invaluable. you're right. you do get the whole truth by reading for yourself.

good luck and please keep us updated.
if your vision gets worse try seeing the eye dr again to rule out ON.
