A little lost !

Hi well finally after 12 months finally have some answers I think. Feeling a little lost after a 2 week delay with the equipmemt (CT scanner)well finally had lumbar puncture last Wednesday something i feel would should have happened 12 months ago and saw specialist friday for results. He said there is mild infection in the results .But what makes it unusal there are unexplained symptoms but no changes in the 5 or 6 mri's in the last 12 months. Then mentioned that MS symptoms are different for everyone. Now he made a decision to start treatment ocrevus in January. But nothing was said that yes i Ms or do i guess or read between the lines yes i have it. Tell me do the specialist ever tell you yes you have MS straight up or do they assume because you have been seeing then for a possible diagnosis of MS, that when they get the information for them to make that 100% call they assume you know that is what it is. Sorry trying to make sense of all this.

@gypsyrose Same post twice - I hope the Moderators delete the other post... Ocrevus means they believe MS & want to do something they suspect will work - good news for you... Please keep us updated.

@Stumbler

@gypsyrose , there are specific criteria that have to be fulfilled to allow for a diagnosis of MS (https://www.mstrust.org.uk/a-z/mcdonald-criteria). The best person to answer your question is the specialist. Perhaps he’s hedging his bets. He maybe expecting a diagnosis of MS, so he is preempting this by treating you now…….. <span style="color: #ff0000;">PS Duplicate post removed - admin (stumbler)</span>
