I am sorry you are having so much trouble, and hope you get some answers soon. As I tell many that ask that same question "is this MS" that is a huge question. There are more than 100 diseases that can mimic MS sx (symptoms) and some are quite easy to rule out with easy blood tests while others may take some time to track down. Finding out if you have MS can be a long process. Sometimes it take years, and some find out rather quickly and abrubtly.

Have some routine blood tests. Look for vitamin def. Have them check your D level. Frequently MS patients have low D, but then again, its becoming a real issue in america, and canada. We wear so much sun screen, we never let the sun sink in. They will check inflammatory markers, and check lupus, and lyme markers (make sure they send the Lyme to the special lab) From A to Z takes a while to start ruling things out. Since there is no definitive test to say "aha! its MS" they tend to want to rule out other things first. Once you reach the point that they are scraping the bottom of the barrel and still not getting answers, they may want a spinal tap to check for Obands. Those are present as inflammation markers during a flare up. An MRI is usually a standard test as well. Get used to that one.

After all the tests are collected, and things ruled out, the MD normally will see what is left of those disease that are not proved by blood, or exam, and will look at the MRI (do you have lesions? where are they? what area of the brain they are in makes a difference) Is there Obands in your spinal fluid? what are your physical sx? and may or may not come to the conclusion that its MS. Some times they keep folks on "limbo island" till they can more closely define your sx to the sx of MS.

its almost never an emergency to diagnose MS, even tho it feels like one to us. We want to know, and we want to know NOW! unfortunatly its a long haul dx and a long haul disease.

I would start with your regular MD, and ask to see a neurologist, or a rhumetologist from there. Hang in there, and come back and let us know.
