I was told I had MS 2 years ago because before i came home from a short vacation I had an episode where I lost the vision in my right eye with a lot of pain, but it came back later that evening when I got back in town I went to see the doctor who told me I had Optic Nuritise in the right eye and DID an MRI and told me I had MS now 2 years later into the injections the nurologist thinks that I might not have it so she did the lumbar puncher blood test and MRI, well I still have lisions in my brain but the other two test's came back negative, I am fighting for a second opinion to go to Mount Zion Multiple Sclerosis clinic at UCSF and she also told me to stop taking the injection I am so agngry what should I do.

Explain to her, and you might need to locate articles about this----> that every person who has MS does NOT have 'bands' in their spinal fluid... This is a proven fact.

Why does she now think that you do not have MS?

If she thinks these injections will make the lesions go away, she is wrong...lesions will always be there.

Are you feeling better since injecting?

By the way, Optic Neuritis is a classic symptom of MS...
