I had an appointment with my MS specialist this past Tuesday. He went over my MRI scans with me, saying there was no change.

He said that he believes there is something there other than the MS, and he's going to do his best to find out what it is.

I had a lumbar puncture, which wasn't too bad. However, because of my age and weight, he wasn't able to pierce the spinal canal to retrieve spinal fluid. He then had me sit on the exam table, leaning over with my arms on a walker and my chin tucked on my chest. That worked perfectly.

He is also sending me for a sleep study due to snoring and fatigue. I'm also to begin PT to help with my walking/balance.

He is having me wean myself off of Flexeril first and then Baclofen. He said that these may be making me excessively sleepy. He did say if my muscle spasms return and are bad, I'm to restart the meds.

Time will tell. I'm trying to think positively and not obsess about the diagnosis, at least until I get the diagnosis.
