Welcome to NT!

I was diagnosed based on MRI results and clinical symptoms.

As for what to expect now, it depends on how MS is effecting you and what you and your neurologist decide. Starting a DMD (disease modifying drug) is what most of us have done. There are also symptom management medications as well as the PT you are already doing.

Let us know how you are doing.

Hi Kaye.

I am reading this as RSD w some symptoms suggestive of MS. Is that right? Does your neuro have a plan to do an MS work-up? Have you even seen a Neuro or is it the Rheumy who thinks it might be MS?

I think I would get the diagnosis nailed down- as best as possible- it can take time as Karilann has said. There are MS Specialist and MSClinics. I'd find the one for my area or one that works w my insurance and go there.

Please let us know how you are doing.

ANN
