Hello everyone!

finally, the time has come! Had my appt w/ the new neuro. So far, I like him. He didnt try to push any drugs on me and said that was my choice. Theres so much to cover with my disease, so alot was left out. But the important ones, I feel, were covered.

He thinks those scary episodes in my sleep are seizures and said if it is seizures I will have to do meds to avoid brain damage .

My walk is far worse today so he was able to witness me walkin like a drunken zombie. I think whats causing the walk to be so bad are my leg muscles are tightening up super hard. (of course I dont notice that until after the appt.)

So now I am waiting to get scheduled in for
--An mri of neck brain spinal cord and cervical something..
Ive only had my neck and brain and that was 4 years ago, so im anxious to see what it all looks like

--ekg

--sleep study

with my speech being effected as bad as it is along with my walk, im starting to consider a dmd. By just symptoms, ive progressed alot in 4 years, so I feel like its risky Business to not do a dmd. Even tho they are risky business in and of themselves.

Sooo I was thinkin bout tecfidera..
I saw the 'positive' thread about it.. But then ive heard fron alot of others how they were red and couldnt get off the toilet due to diarrhea

he asked if I walked,with a cane or walker. Told him I didnt but used my gpas walkin stick for the ms walk and how I prolly wouldnt have been able to finish without the stick. He didnt prescribe a can tho.

he says I should be on disability
My previous neuro said 'youll never have to worry about disability'
So its good this doctor sees I need some assistance.

I guess from here I just need to keep positive
