Hello

I am going again for another Opinion for RR MS at UTSW DALLAS MS CLINIC on March 22. I was diagnosed with RR MS in 09, Put on AVONEX INJ for almost a year and then then the MRI of the brain came back with NO ms PATTERN. In spite of what the Report said,

MY NEUROLOGIST said I did in fact have MS and he had no doubt about the diagnosis. I went for a 2nd opinion, and the other NEURO said NO MS just after a brief visit and no further work-ups of the brain or taps. MY new PCP saw me and said he did not agree with this and is sending me to an MS SPECIALIST IN DALLAS. I have worse symptoms now including; Numbness and Imbalance in feet, fingers and legs. Horrible Intolerance to Heat, Vision Changes, Tingling in finger tips and hands, and inability to know when my socks and slippers are on or off. I lose my slippers and find I am wearing only 1 sometimes. I am depressed more and cry a lot for no reason. I did show 3 lesions in the white matter of the brain, but w/o suggestion of MS in 2010. My PCP did not agree on this decision either. So I need to know if I am taking the right measures or am I dramatizing this all in my head???

It is driving me nuts!
