Thank you Thank you Thank you!

I think part of the reason I feel like this, is because all of my consultations play out the same way. I am on Tysabri (which has been good for me, and slowed things down), and I am JC+ so I have an MRI and a neuro appt every 6 months.

Each time, I hand over my films, he puts them up, goes through them screen by screen and points out all of the lesions that look the same, have not grown, and says he can't see any new ones, or evidence of new activity so I am stable, congratulations all is well.

That takes the wind completely out of my sails and anything I say from that point on feels baseless - like I am whiney and being difficult. He is nice, and does take time to listen, and make suggestions about medications etc so it is probably my own fear of being labelled a hypochondriac or a whinger.

Thanks again - I love this place, and all of you in it.
