No, no contrast this time. I had it the first two though. They did a blood test before, creatine? Don't know if it wasn't right, so they didn't use it this time. That kind of made me wonder if they couldn't make a diagnosis without it?

An MS diagnosis is usually an elimination of other conditions first....so it takes a while. I don't think you're too old to get that diagnosis. You could have had MS for a long time before anyone diagnosed it. I know I did. I was 45 when I was given my dx.
I hope they determine what's causing your symptoms. It's hard not to know or have a name for what's going on. Hang in there. It's a lengthy process for many of us who've eventually gotten the MS dx. |
