Maybe it is FND after all?

FND mimics MS..maybe all of my symptoms are just that…FND. All psychogenic. 😟I had an MRI 2 years ago and they found nothing. That may be all I need for me to move on…

Has anyone had similar symptoms to MS but ended up being diagnosed with something else? If so what were you diagnosed with?

I recently had 4 MRIs due to being under suspicion of having MS but they all came clean. I'm glad it's not MS but I'm frustrated because it means I'm at square one again. Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Symptoms dismissed by neurologist...

So I just had an appointment with my neurologist, pretty much my complaint of "it's tiring to even exist" was probably taken the wrong way, plus she said it's just because of my abdominal obesity? Like MS does not cause fatigue??? Brain lesions, PIRA, no? I mean.. I'm kinda mad at that???? Am I wro...
