This Is MS Multiple Sclerosis Community: Knowledge & Support

I have recently received blood results as all normal, is that likely for someone with aggressive RRMS, a recent LP was also clear, confused !!!!

Comments appreciated.

Hi Zac-
Did you have oligoclonal banding (OB) before? Because the bands aren't supposed to go away in MS...however, not everyone with MS has banding.

The other question is, are your MRIs stable, as well as your symptoms?

CCSVI in MS

Zac, the blood tests are to rule out other causes for symptoms, and don't indicate whether you have MS or not. There are still no tests for MS, but it remains a diagnosis after other possibilities have been ruled out.

Thanks for replays,

My neuro explained my CSF as clear and commented it as unusual, and me a difficult case to read ?
My most recent MRI indicated all activity as calm / no hot spots although my symptoms seem to be worsening with no remission which I'v never experienced even though my neuro insists I'm RR.
Iv also been examined for CCSVI which proved inconclusive, my thinking was pwms would show from blood deficiency in B12, Vit D etc mine only indicated slightly high cholesterol.
