MS can present itself just about anywhere in the body, and when you think about it, since it's a CNS (central nervous system) disease and the CNS affects all our parts, it figures.

There are some common places where MS pops up: the bladder, the eyes, the way we control our muscles, our sense of position in space, our balance, and sensation itself.

I'd say December is a long time to wait. Could you be put on a list of people to be notified in case of a cancellation so you could be seen sooner?
