Thank you so much for t=putting that into human talk!!!!! Very informative explanatio. My husband actually listened. When i read him some of the other descrptions it was like reading Greek to hima nd to me so I quickly loost his attention. As far as the other links I don't want any of those! Some of them have symptoms that other diseases have so yes I have some symptoms. I can honestly say the one I don't have symptoms of is the one with the weird Swedish name.

Hello Doydie,

I think that it is sort of standard to rule out other auto-immune sydromes with blood tests whenever someone presents with multiple area neuralgias and inflammation/pain.
As we have found out from others on this forum it is possible to have more than MS causing some of our challenges.

Celebrate that your physician is "on it" so that you get the most appropriate and effective care now and in the future .

With love, Erika

Thanks for the pep talk Erika. I guess you can be our official cheerleader here! I just wish we didn't have a 3 day holiday. I'm not worried about anything because I have exhibited any symptoms of anything but it's just nice to know. I feel like my today has been a pin cushion this week. I had an MRI w/wo. then went right down and had a lot of lab. Had a LOT of lab today and I finally scheduled myself after 5 years of doctor asking me to have a Mammogram. So that is next Thursday. Now I have to wait to see if this doctor wants to see me. Now one other goal has been to get a bone density test. At least that isn't painful
