Default MRI Report

Got a good report from my neuro – no new lesions !!! So that is two years without any new lesions. I also did well on my physical exam. I only thing I could not do was walk on my heels. He actually used the word mild when going over my MRI with me. I am going to slowly taper down the baclofen I have been taking from 6 a day to 3 a day as it does not seem to really help with my spasticity. Then he may try a different one. He is also going to try to get approval for ampyra. He said that my insurance will typically not approve a new drug until it has been on the market for 6 month. He also seemed skeptical that it will help me, but he said he was willing to have me try it for a few months if he can get approval.
