Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
people in the health field are always asking me if I have m.s. I can t have an mri because I have metal clips from 3 aneurysms clipped. my seizure dr. tells me I don t have epileptic seizures. he had me see a specialist who suggested I have ms, but promptly dropped me because I could not have an mri. how am I supposed to find the symptoms of ms, when all the information is so vague? my seizure dr, who has taken on the roll of my neurologist ignores symptoms I have which I don t understand. I am visually impaired so can t read terms and conditions. if this costs money, please disregard this. I am low income and cannot afford to pay for this. thank you, jan
What do you feel and when did it start?If you cannot have a brain MRI, I would recommend performing a spinal tap in order to investigate for MS and evoked potentials. You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
