In Remembrance

I used to enjoy going out but it's so difficult for me now I just don't want to.
My friends don't understand it which I kinda get but my neuro?? I wasn't at all sorry when he left the practice.

I changed Neuro's several months ago and I don't miss my old Neuro one bit. He loved to tell me "MS is not a painful condition". OK, maybe not for you since you don't HAVE it but I will testify that it is painful sometimes. He had the gall to tell me once that people with MS have "convenient pain". I'm not going to argue with him or try to justify myself and my choices.

I like my neuro a lot. He won an award for humanitarianism and is considered a MS speciaist neuro at Johns Hopkins.
He also does Clinical research at an immune place. Yesterday when I saw him I thanked him for not being an @$$#%(& like some doctors I read about on NT. I know I'm very lucky. He's wonderful in that he doesn't think he can cure me and give me no false hope. So I can talk to him. He helps or refers me out.

Kitty, I think my old neuro must have set up a practice with yours.

Why do neuros say that MS is not painful?!?! I've experienced that too. I have never heard anyone with MS say they never experienced pain due to their MS. I don't know where these doctors get that information that MS doesn't hurt.

I don't understand how a doctor can say that MS doesn't cause pain! I would just have to tell that doctor to spend a day in my shoes. I am so thankful that I have empathetic doctors. My neurologist was almost in tears when he told me I have MS. My primary care has told me to tell people to kiss my foot if they wanted to doubt my pain. I just feel truly blessed with my care team.
