There are days when I’m ok but there are other days where I struggle on stairs. Parking on the 3rd floor and walking up and down seems so so hard. Is there a way I can get a blue badge in the UK? I don’t need it all the time but some days just wish I had one. Thanks.

NHS in the UK - How long did it take for your Lumbar Puncture results to return?

I've had 2 mri's - both show a lot of Lesions in my Brain & Spinal cord. My neurologist and doctors are pretty sure I have MS. They want to do a Lumber Puncture to confirm. I had the LP last Monday. How long does it take for the results to come back?
