I have to add a comment that wasn't said to me but to someone I met via the internet on another site that had nothing to do with MS. But when I mentioned I'd just been dx'd, she told me of her recent visit to her local "Expert" for a new flare (severe balance issues among others). She'd been dx'd for a number of years and been through plenty of flares already. But apparently hadn't seen this guy before:

He simply told her that she couldn't possibly have MS as he "could not smell it on her."

Apparently there is a BIG difference if you see a neuro that graduated at the top of his class and one that graduated at the bottom of the class! Wish we could find out who was who.
