Re: MS? Looking for some insight and help.

Sorry for the delayed reply as I was busy helping a Chinese student here with her English.

If you follow the instructions for post LP recovery, you should do fine. If you do get a post LP headache, you should get a blood patch as soon as you can. Stay caffeinated and remain lying down or reclined and off your feet. Much of your trepidation is a matter of the thought of the LP.

Unless there is something major, you will be unlikely to have a result until your appointment. Just remember, whatever the LP result, it is not an MS Specific test. If your doctor is sitting on the fence and basing a diagnosis on the result, I would encourage you to find another MS Specialist or at the very least, a second opinion.

Having been on over 49 countries around the world, Kansas is home, but I can make my home pretty much any where. There are some nice spots in Colorado which would be lovely. I am glad that you have adjusted to Kansas. :) :angel:
