The Mandell MS Center in Connecticut just gave me a new diagnosis: "MS with MOG antibodies". They just drew all kinds of blood as I am new patient. I tested positive for MOG antibodies. I was actually called in the doctors' office the next day! They didn't have this blood test 15 years ago. Traditional MS drugs of old do not work on this. Who knew
Ritoxilumb is the only drug they offer, but for being a scary infusion cancer drug, the efficacy rate is 90%. I have been misdiagnosed for 15 years.
Besides the positive blood test, I never had Oglical bands. MOG people usually don't. MSers usually do.
All new patients get the MOG test and other "new" blood tests. Diseases that present like MS but are not MS!? The only reason I found out was because I moved my business to his new place closer to home and highly regarded. Already got my money's worth!
MS has milder drugs, but at least I know what I'm dealing with.
