Hi all,

I saw my neuro today and now I'm a bit happier... i think!!

She did a very quick exam (legs only)... did the babinski test with my socks on....?? is that normal?

She said by the exam she could rule out MS, as it was so normal, even though I shuffled in there, due to a very 'bad leg day'!!!! but she will do a spinal MRI in 5 weeks still looking for demyelination.
I've only had brain and c-spine before.

I also had bloods to check for "Myasthenia Gravia"..... But i don't have any of the neck/droopy eye/swallowing symtoms of this disease. Just the weak legs with physical activity.

(Ok, i'm getting to my topic about the pred.) So she said, "because the oral pred (25mg for 5 days, then half for 5 days so far) hasn't worked for my leg, then it's highly unlikely to be MS as well.

So, does that sound right, that if the oral pred doesn't work it's most likely not MS??
