Welcome holdingontohope and Jax.
We hope you find the major cause of your problems and stop collecting all the other disorders along your waiting-journey. Many of us have other medical problems besides MS. As long as they are not life threatening I am sure coping skills will help too. Good luck on Nov. 10th and nice to meet you.

Join us in the mean time. Keeping busy helps. Lots to talk about here.

Welcome back to you Heather. You do sound very depressed. Not good. Please see your regular doctor if you feel worse until your Nov. 2nd's Neuro appointment. Get some medication for depression. Lyrica can cause depression, so ask about that. It didn't work for me when I went off Neurontin and tried Lyrica. My sensory symptoms got worse and pain too.
I had to get off each of them, slowly. Good luck and nice to meet you.
The National Multiple Sclerosis Society has a helpful list.
