Of course we don't know but we understand the pain and the fear. What I can say is if it is MS, there is help available. Get the diagnosis done and then make a treatment plan. Those of us who live with the disease are generally willing to listen and share. Good luck, come back when you know for sure and I'll be happy to help. * charlee51
