Q: Multiple Sclerosis symptoms and testing for MS
asked by: slc31 on July 3rd, 2009

I have been diagnosed with Endometriosis and been treated surgically. I also have some symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis. My doctor has run every blood test for all other autoimmune disorders and still no answer. I am at my wits end the pain and numbness throughout my body alone is taking away my smile. I have recently presented with a tight feeling that comes over the left side of my face extreme pain in lower legs and an odd abdominal spasm which I have never experienced before. Should I ask my Doctor to test for MS? I really need some advise as my husband is growing impatient at dealing with something that to him is invisible.

If you have not been seen by a neurologist I suggest that you make an appt with one.

MS can NOT be diagnosed with a blood test.
