Re: Cerebral atrophy and one UBO. Could these be early MS?

When I mentioned not listing symptoms because it makes people think I'm crazy, I was actually thinking more in terms of doctors but also laypersons as well.

Well...I'm probably one of those types of people who annoy you, but let me try to provide some perspective on what my situation is like for me: I don't want MS, and I don't want a diagnosis so that I can have access to a magic pill that will make all of my symptoms go away.
