I occasionally wonder why I even go to the neuro. I have mild MS...he told me last time to quit "counting MS symptoms on my fingers and toes."
So I ignore them unless they really scream for attention. I only see him to get refills of prescriptions and to see if they are working right or not. Otherwise, it's 3 hours out of my day that I could use to do something fun.


But you seem to have gotten worse, so I would definitely go back to the neuro to let him see your condition. There are PT appts and new meds that might ease your symptoms...

I think that's so your insurance will continue to pay for your meds. A lot of them apparently won't pay if you're not rr.

I tried physical therapy a while back. It was an exercise in futility. I was given ten PT appointments, and I went to each one faithfully. But they wouldn't let me exercise. I have had well-controlled high blood pressure for a long time. But every time I'd show up at the hospital's PT department, my BP would skyrocket. So they couldn't let me exercise at all. Twice my PCP even gave me drugs to take the morning of the PT appointment, but it didn't help.
