Your symptoms are classic symptoms of L'Hermittes Sign so I think you are correct in your self diagnosis, but please know that MS is not the only condition in which it presents. For example....have you have your Vit B12 checked? L'Hermitte's is a symptom of low B12. Also, have you ever had a neck injury? There's plenty of literature about so have a read, but remember that MS is not the only cause.

.... Although often considered a classic finding in multiple sclerosis, it can be caused by a number of conditions, including transverse myelitis, Behçet's disease, trauma, radiation myelopathy, vitamin B12 deficiency (subacute combined degeneration), and compression of the spinal cord in the neck from any cause such as cervical spondylosis, disc herniation, tumor, and Arnold-Chiari malformation.

If you're not happy to wait as your doctor suggests, would you consider a chiro or a physiotherapist?
