neuro appointment today, at long last

New diagnosis and before diagnosis
1

hey guys n gals,

well i had my neuro appointment today after waiting for months since my referal, all the tests she had me doing were a little strange but i am so glad that its over and i was given the answers to some important questions.

the neuro informed me its r and r, spoke to me about seeing an ms nurse and spoke to me about possible treatments, i just have to wait again now for the ms nurse.

I do feel so glad its out the way and even more pleased to hear that i dont need to have a lumber puncture. (adam does a little jig…)

Hello Adam,

Glad you’ve got a dx but sorry it’s ms. I also got my dx without having to have a LP. Hope your ms nurse is as good as mine.

Take care.

thanks janet,

i hope the ms nurse is ok too. i thought that my neuro would have read my notes before seeing me today, she had no idea about past possible relapses.

she said i would see the ms nurse within the next 6 months, this seems a long time to me taking into account that i’ve had 2 to 3 known relapses this year,

is it normal to wait for so long?

Have you had an mri Adam ? what did they say about your tests you had to do ?

When i saw my neuro he said my reflexes were not right one side?

At least you now know what your dealing with .6 months seems a very long time to me .Hopefully it wont take anywhere near that long

Hi ADAM, where did James come from for heavens sake! In my defence I hadn’t slept for a couple of days due to night twitching (no not bird watching) had better night last night. Sorry! X
