new member - Do I have MS?

Hello everyone,

I am new to the group. I just found you while doing a search about MS
like symptoms.

I just wondered if anyone was told they had MS just from an MRI
showing lesions. I also have symptoms that they say are MS like. I had
2 MRIs a year apart and there was no change in the 2nd. I have also
had Visual evoked potential (VEP), Somatosensory testing upper and
lower limbs, Spinal Tap and none of those seemed to suggest MS.

I don't want to start taking meds for MS unless I can feel confident
that it is MS.

Thanks
Rebecca R.
