Default Neuro exam now more confused

Hi all, I have posted this in MS and MG forums for some advise.

I had my first neuro appt and now I'm even more confused. He feels pretty certain that I have MG not MS, but he can't explain the electrical zaps I get everywhere or painful muscle spasms, cramping, tingling, pins & needles. He says MG doesn't cause pain, so wonder how he can be certain I have MG when I also have pain?

He also says that MG doesn't cause brain lesions, BUT my MRI showed spot. He said it could be from a migraine. Basically he saw my drooping eyelid and couldn't get past MG.

I'd be ok with MG dx, if I wasn't having shooting zaps while he is saying MG doesn't cause pain. Oh yes the blood test for MG was normal also. I'm so confused.

BTW...the rx for mestinson is killing my stomach & having spasms everywhere. he said that would happen. wow this is so much fun.
