... The Opthamologist comes back and tells you your MRI's were apparently clear, they recommend a Evoked Potentials Test (already booked) and a follow-up with the Neurologist (already booked) but admit, frankly, they're stumped.
And they go and ask a more experienced colleague, who is also stumped.
"It could still be MS, sometimes it isn't clear from MRI scans... but we're going to have to discharge you, there actually aren't any more tests we can do, its down to Neurology now..."
I can also raise the number of consultants I've made say the following:
"I've never seen that before"
From one, to two!
I have to say, its days like that I am thankful for good friends. I spent an evening sat on the sofa of the Reverend Tez, who after discussing that MS was the immune system attacking the nerves, Logically pointed out that all I needed to do was get rid of my immune system and live in a giant, sterile hamster ball.
As I was near crying with laughter he looked straight at me and said;
"Well it sounded like a good idea in my head, although in reality, hill's could be a problem."
Yes, Because when you're living in an air-tight sterile hamster-ball, gentle inclines are likely to be your biggest concern.
So now I am going back to the hospital, to speak to them about todays flare-up caused by over-doing it.
