Something else I was wondering about is being properly medicated. Of course I want to feel better. The last doc I saw was only the pain doc, not the neuro. We talked about if I took steroids, without knowing exactly what it is but assuming it's MS, would I feel better. She said yes, but she doesn't feel I should be treated until we know exactly what it is. So if it's Lupus (which I don't think it is, symptoms don't match) or something else, then it would be treated differently although similar.

So right now I'm treating the symptoms only. At what point would a neuro say "well, your MRI looks good, but you have so many symptoms that I want to give you XYZ drug"? Or do they wait forever and ever to treat you, and wait until one is really bad?
