Hello: I am from Tx, 60/y/o f that was diagnosed with Relapsing-Remitting MS in 09. My Brain MRI showed 3 lesions of the White Matter, but not a pattern suggestive for MS??. My Neurologist was convinced on my Diagnosis and said that it didn't matter what the Radiology Report said. I was on Avonex each week for nearly a year.
I continued to have numerous clinical findings, including LP results, and High Myelin Protein. There were no band, IGG, or Rate. Another DR said I did not have it, only to see him for a brief time. Now I have no one to see. I am an active person and walk, due to not driving a car. I use to work in the medial field for over 20 years, and it came to a halt in 06 when I found I couldn't walk. It was painful, stiffness, spasticity, and memory problems, etc.
I love the outdoors; such as camping, hiking, antiques, floral arrangements, and animals. I do have a dog, who's my best friend and we spend a lot of time walking. It has become more difficult and I get Imbalanced and Dizzy. I have made an effort to lose wt and done great! I am involved in church activites, which keeps me positive and love Contemporary Christian, Classsical, and Gregorian Chants. I try to stay busy, hoping much of this will go away. But it seems since having these same symptoms, they have gone from tolerable to worse. I wish I could get an answer!! MY PCP had no problem sending me to an MS Specialist in Dallas for another opinion and testing. I hope I am not the only one that has gone through this?? I love people and I really miss the things I used to do. Maybe someone can give me some answers... mary
