He gave me the info for ABC-R....but I am leaning toward LDN only. I have read a lot about each, and I just do not feel comfortable with the first four. LDN just makes sense to me. I do question my dx and will be getting a second opinion in March. My doctor is good and open to LDN...he is a general neurologist so i will be seeing a MS specialist at a comprehensive MS clinic in March.

I have a great deal of the symptoms.....but also have other medical issues that could account for some of them.

I have neck/back/shld pain with numbness and tingling into my arms and legs, very cramp/achy legs and an abnormal SSEP......but I do have two herniated discs

I have frequency and leaking urine......but I have 5 children

I had a few white matter lesions.....but I have a history of severe migraines, which can cause similar lesions

I have low B12 (not extremely low 308) which can mimic MS symptoms, including extreme fatigue.

Do you see what I mean.....I am in the medical field and I know that makes me a very bad patient and I question everything....because after all it is
Practicing Medicine

Maybe it is just denial....I haven't told me mom or siblings....want to wait for the second opinion, so maybe I won't have to tell them at all.

Thanks for listening,
Sharon
