Chris,

My fingers are crossed for you. The seizures would be very frightening to me.

Keep us posted on your tests.

So sorry you are having such a bad time. You are right, the spinal tap (especially) and mri's are really crappy - I just hope that you get some answers from all the pain. Not good to be tired - please rest to try to recover some energy and assist recuperation. Take care of you for now - will be waiting to see how things go & wish you only the best.

Sorry you're going through a rough time Chris. You joined thisisms before me so I didn't read your intro and didn't realize until now that you are still in limbo.

I guess one of the few things worse than being diagnosed with MS is having the symptoms and not being diagnosed with MS.

Hi Chris,
Like Bob, I hadn't realised you haven't been officially diagnosed – it must be absolute hell not knowing the cause of your symptoms. Remember: we'll be right there with you, (in spirit, obviously... For God's sake don't take your computer into the scanner with you!!).
