Hi guys, back from Neurologist visit. The doctor says he doesn't think i have MS due to the MRI taken a year ago was clear ( no lesions or shading) Asked him about a new MRI, but due to cost involved he didn't think it was needed. He has referred me to another Neurologist in Brisbane that deals more with the Ear/Brain systems. He did numerous vertigo realted tests and studied the MRI and Scans and is leaning towards a brain/balance/ear problem. My partner and i asked him so many questions but he seemed reluctant to answer them saying we need to ask the new neurologist when i get to see him.

If you have a lot of dental work you might consider mercury poisoning as the problem. Mercury poisoning has similiar sympthoms as MS. If you do not have the gene which allow for MS you can still get the same symptoms with mercury poisoning. You could get it checked out with a mercury free dentist. They have instruments which tell them the amount of mercury being released from you fillings. There are also detoxification plans involving vitamins, minerals and supplements which allow the body to detoxify itself. This is something you might want to look at. It worked for me. Mercury in the mouth has made many people very sick.
i would recommend seeing a Upper Cervical Care Dr and get tested if u can benefit from this kind of care
search upper cervical care and your town to find a dr near you, on google or any search engine
