Hi Diane, I wanted to say hi and just reinforce what the others have said.

If you've read up on MS at all, you'll know what a difficult disease MS is to diagnose, and one of those reasons is because so many other diseases have similar symptoms.

It would help if your son keeps a diary. AfterMyNap and NurseNancy explained that fairly well. Get him to keep a list of all the symptoms; where they are, what they felt like, and how long they lasted.

Also.... when he does go to the neuro, it helps to have some-one accompany him as that first visit is usually rather over-whelming and half of what the doctor says is usually forgoten long before the patient gets home from the visit.

I wish him luck, and I do hope that it's not MS.

Hi Diane just jumping in to say good luck for your DS and you.

I agree with everything that has been said. Be patient and
don't jump to any conclusions until you have everything
put in front of you.


Jappy :)
