Have you had a lumbar puncture yet?

Hi Susie,
No I haven't had a LP yet.
My neuro said she didn't want to do such an invasive test yet. As all the tests have been clear so far, i think she's just seeing what the next MRI shows.
She said after my 3rd exam she didn't think I showed any 'suspicious' neuro signs, even though my symptoms are 'suggestive of MS'.
I asked her directly can she rule out MS and she said yes!
But yet she still saying have another brain/c-spine MRI in November (6 months after the 1st one) to see what's going on, as 'the lesions can take a while to form'......
I'm confused.
I don't think they like to suggest you 'might' have a disease/condition unless they're really sure.
