Actually, it wasn't so bad Sally. Didn't feel any worse than an injection really (well, except he hit a nerve and I had a few "zings" down one buttock but even that wasn't that bad).

But it really wasn't bad at all. And I'm not the bravest person in the world either so if it would have been bad, I would have been hollering sweet mary!

Default Neg LP
I was Dx with neg LP. I had MRI and variety of symptoms. I have questioned it ever since then. I have seen other Neuros who do all seem to agree that I have MS, but I can't help but question it!!! I am on Betaferon, better to be safe than sorry!

my lp was negative when i first dxd with ms. i think that means there were not yet any spinal lesions. the radioligist who did my first lp showed me the liquid he withdrew from my spine. it was clear. he said that that was a good thing - that my ms wasn't progressing "downward".

having ms with a "negaitve" lp is definitely a good thing.

I completely understand April. For the first year, I was hoping for that same mistake. I had a very hard time accepting my diagnosis.

Hope your hand has stopped twitching. And if it still is, put it to good use and find someone to smack! *grin*
