Sound like you're at the beginning of a wild ride going somewhere not so great. My suggestions for what they're worth. Having medical problems is very expensive, especially when you're so young.

- Life insurance if needed - Later if you're diagnosed, you can't get.

- Medical insurance before diagnosis. Expensive - Yes. But medical stuff can be much more expensive. I'm PPMS and never remit and there are no meds available to me. If you are MS, sounds RR. A med may (MAY) help and there are outrageously expensive.

- Disability insurance - Job specific. Again expensive but if needed can make a difference.

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst is Me. The best doctors in the world can't predict the future.
