Unfortunately, the answer to your question
is yes. Sometimes people with symptoms
go on for even longer than you have
without having a positive mri. I would
urge you to continue your medication
however, just on the possibility that you
do have ms. Have you had a lumbar
puncture (spinal tap) yet? Most
neurologists want their patients to have
one of those done during the diagnostic
process also.

I have had ms for 17 yrs and still no
leisons and all the test say I am okay.
But there why am I sick ? Well the doctor
call it multiple sclerosis because they
dont know what is wrong and thats the darn
truth.

25 years here and I have a clear mri for a
brain scan. My problem was damage to the
spinal cord.

There is a product called reliv, I am
taking it for joint pain, and sciatica
pain. I have been on it for 3 months and
I do not have any more symptoms. I have
heard of many people with ms using this
all natural powerful antioxiant
nutritional supplement and having amazing
results. I am a distributor and I am so
so happy to hear people tell me they are
feeling better and have more energy than
ever before. I am not kidding this
product is wonderful. My friend has ms
and she is going get on it next week, this
is a pure food supplement with all the
vitamins that we are missing in our daily
foods. Also pill formed vitamins are
useless this is a powder form to be mixed
with water or juice. Please believe me
it is wonderful. Go to reliv.Com and
learn about it. You will see
testimonials that are absoluteley amazing
and true. I personally know friends who
have benefitted immensely from this
product.

You all are very lucky. My new m.R.I.
Came back and I have three new lesions to
add to the five I already have. I was
diagnosed august '02. I feel pretty
envious of you all. I am only 23 and my
life is going downhill.

I had no idea that it was even possible
not to have lesions show up on an mri .
How do you get positively diagnosed or
approved for drugs without the positive
mri? Does not having lesions just mean
that your ms is not as active? Hmmm. Now
I guess I understand why so many people
take so many years before they are finally
diagnosed.

Lesions can show up on the brain, spinal
cord, both or just one area.
I was a 22 year old college student when I
got hit. Mehra sometimes things are rough
but after time you will develope a
perspective and that helps a lot. Having
computer and internet access will also
help you out a lot. I am no longer
isolated thanks to the computer. I have
friends all over the world and that makes
such a big difference.
Try to develope some interests and join on
line groups in those areas. You will not
believe what a difference that makes to
the quality of your life.
