It shouldn't be the patient sitting in 'doctor limbo' of the 'Ha! I was right, you were wrong!!' that goes on between 'medical professionals'... .. especially in a smaller region. They're cutthroats here!

I'm telling you Dej, it's ok for you to just have MS, and tell your doctors just that, until a symptom comes up that's undeniably something else that can't be left untreated outside of MS (like, kidney stones for example).

I wish they'd spend less time trying to disprove one another (medical field) and more time realizing 'Hey, real people have this crap!'.

Ahhh, but wouldn't that be lovely?
