Hey y'all I'm new here. Over the past couple years I have been trying to find out what the heck is wrong with me. I have multiple symptoms but none very severe. My neuro fully believes I have MS but it seems like every test that is ran comes back normal. I do have some occasional deep white matter hyperintensities on my MRI.
I recently had my spinal tap but the only thing that has come back as a high myelin basic protein. And even then it is just slightly high reference range is 0.0 to 1.2, I was at a 1.6. every single other test on the spinal tap has come back normal. I also have myasthenia gravis that my neurologist treats me for. My rheumatologist has me on treatment for connective tissue disease (pre lupus as he likes to call it.) And my endocrinologist treat me for Hashimoto's. Basically my question is can a high myelin basic protein along with an abnromal MRI be enough to diagnose MS?
