But with a clear Brain and C-spine, it is hard to get a dx for anything right now. Did you have a Spinal Tap or Visual Evoked Potentials? T-spine MRI?

Nothing is clear cut. No one size fits all. You will have to wait and see like many of us did. Your doctor has to rule out other diseases in order to rule what you really going on with your body, and with your symptoms.

Good luck to you.

Lady,
I haven't had a spinal tap, and yes I had the VEP, which was clear too.
The T-spine MRI is in 3 weeks.
I guess I was hoping if the pattern of my symptoms wasn't 'typical of MS' then it isn't!!
I'm still hopeful it's not MS until I get a dx.
That's the only thing keeping me going.
