My MRI was negative, however, neuro said has some patients that are
clear still have MS so I have to go have a lumbar puncture and a vep test for my
eyes and then more MRI's.
Really scared, definitely afraid of needles and now this and then neuro told me
that treatments are needles as well.
Am I going in the right direction? One lady I met said don't let them send you
to a clinic and watch what they do, but if I never knew anyone who has had this
how do I know what to “watch” for?
