Any MD who tells you its all in your head, or that you are playing games in order to gain attention, RUN AWAY FROM. Go seek another opinion.

What that tells you about that MD is that he isnt knowledgeable enough, nor does he care enough to help you search to find what the real answers are. Even if you are seeking attention, even if you are faking, even if you are just looking for pills, he should want to find out WHY?! Why would your life be so miserable that you would want to do this? Why would your thought process lead you to seek out a difficult path of medical care, instead of going home with a good bottle, or out on the town in a red dress to raise heck?! Clearly There are some folks that are seeking medical attention for the narcotics, but even then, he should be refering them to appropriate care, and not dismissing them as a waste of his time.

You will find this to be a common theme in MS patients on the road to diagnosis. The symptoms are vague. Your leg isnt bent at an odd angle and blue in color. it just aches, and has tingles. It clearly isnt broken, but something is making it tingle, so lets find out what that is, shall we? You dont have a constant bloody nose, and blood shot eyes, but you have a bad headache constantly, even if its not obvious why, lets find out why, shall we?

Please dont ever tolerate a dimissive MD. Speak up, and ask "If you dont know what it is, can you help me find an MD who is willing to help me investigate?" I found this question throws them. It shifts their gears, and makes um think a bit. This is a slippery disease, and isnt easily cornered and labled. hang in there.
