Not Ms?
Hi guys
Come from my second opinion neuro
Told him all the symptoms and he did another neuro exam all normal
He's looked at scans again all normal apart from disc protrusion at three levels, which impact the centre of the spinal cord quite badly
He said its not Ms it doesn't present like this and it's certaibly not ppms, he's putting it all onto the cervical disc issues which I find odd?
He said with the sympotms I have he would expect to find something on exam or mri and that he's seen 2500 with Ms and what I have is not Ms
I am happy but not convinced I know that's daft but can the neck issues really cause all this and the arm problems?
I've still got LP tomorrow to see what that shows, I guess if that's clear the odds are he's right?
Well there you go....all that worrying and its not MS after all. Maybe you should look at fibromyalgia?
@krisp , if it's a case of messages not travelling from the nerve endings to the brain properly, then you are looking at potential constrictions somewhere en route. And, the cervical spine is where a lot of messages pass through. So, if disc protusions are your problem, did he suggest a way forward for you?
