Good plan.

I am in Canada, just over the border from you. I love shopping down there and always pick up some Mountain Dew with caffeine (ours doesn't have it).

Ahhh.Beautiful BC ! I just love the Northwest , born and raised. The Columbia River Gorge here is so breath taking and I don't care how many times I drive down I-84 it just amazes me.

Good luck!! I wouldn't walk out of there without a solid answer on "what caused those lesions then?", IF they try to give you the run-around. I really don't think they will though.

Hello and hope you get your answers as soon as you can.

Has the present MD taken all the lab tests? That was the 1st thing the MS doc did... to rule out other causes. My new Rheumy said brain lesions are much more common and the symptoms often overlap. So I dont want you to get your hopes up only to have the new doc run more tests and take their time diagnosing you.

Just know that you are not alone and that we care how you are doing.

Warmly, Jan
