Like so many others here, I was not surprised. After 15+ years of symptoms, everything else had been ruled out. I could clearly see that MS was one of the options for diagnosis. The neurologist reluctantly ordered an MRI and I was immediately diagnosed. It's never a good thing to get a call directly from the doctor.
I'm no longer angry that I wasn't diagnosed earlier but I believe my life would have been different if I was. I am thankful for the doctors who believed something was wrong and treated my symptoms without judgment. I do think there needs to be more education and outreach to doctors and to the public in general about diagnosing MS.
