Hello

Last September I started to get back pain while at work, I went home, and the back pain didn’t go away, seen my GP after few says later to be told they think its. Slipped disc and they will send for a spine consultant to send for me, I got a letter saying that its going to be end of November, lucky I got bupa cover through work, so had a appointment with spine consultant who wanted a MRI on the spine and base of my skull, on the 2nd December 2025, had a follow up appointment with the spine consultant who said sorry he can’t help, since there is Myelin damage in the spine, and need to go to A&E, which I went on the same day, A&E sent me home 16 hours later since they Dont have a neurology department, on Christmas day I had a fall and lost what mobility I had left, my GP asked me to go back to A&E and he spoken to the Hospiral I was amitted, I had another MRI but this time on my Brain, and lumber puncture, after 2 weeks hospital stay, the neruologist confirmed Multiple sclerosis, over the last few weeks and months, been very emotional for me, I now being referred to the MS clinic, which my first appointment is in Feb, and physio sessions a few weeks after, I am glad to get the diagnosis, instead of it being unknown, but been scary for the unknown and will I get my Independence back.
