Hi Karol,

I hope the antibiotics work for you the first time around.

Don't give up on getting the correct diagnosis. You need to know if you really have MS, Lupus, both or something else. Did your neuro try you on any of the other drugs for MS? Not getting a response from one medication isn't enough to go by. Also it is my understanding that Progressive MS does not respond. Many of us have to try several drugs before we get one that helps.

You mentioned having a positive MRI. Where did the lesions show? Were they in the Dawson's finger shape or just random? Dawson's finger shape is usually pretty conclusive but random could mean MS or something else.

Take care,
Lazylegs

Hi Karol,

My name came from my family. My legs just give out whenever they want so it seemed to fit for my screen name.

I don't have MS, but I mimic MS very closely. When my neuro and I go over the MRI's and other testing she explains what she is looking for and the differences. She also had me check out the MS sites so I would understand why we retest every year and how other people deal with the same situations.

I hope the medication wipes the Lyme's out quickly.

Take care,
Lazylegs
