My partner tells me ‘it’s mind over matter’ I try to explain it’s not I am physically in pain and I get so tired I just cry. He tells me to walk it off and I need to think I’m well and I will be. It’s so hard to try to explain to him how I’m feeling. He thinks I’m just being lazy

Not sure if my initial post was shared so I'm trying again. Hello. I'm new here. My question is can a definitive diagnosis for MS be done "without" a spinal tap?! I refuse to let any doctor in my spine after a botched spinal surgery. I appreciate any feedback. Have a wonderful day ❤️🌹❤️

I need someone else with multiple sclerosis’s thought on this. After I moved back into my mothers house after a abusive relationship and, after a family member past thinks I’m to “weak” to walk to the store even though I have walked further. Yet no madder how hard I try to show her I can do it and I need to be active she follows after what her new boyfriend says and thinks I need to stay home which is making my legs more weak.
