Re: My doctor wants me to get a baclofen pump and I'm scared

Re: Just got my brain mri

Thanks guys. Still waiting to hear from the doctor. With all the symptoms of extreme leg weakness, loss of balance, lack of coordination, can't concentrate, bad short term memory, and depression, I'm very worried. About fourteen years ago I had the spinal tap done. The results were negative for MS, ...
