Default Help at last

Hi, my husband has finaly seen the neurologist again for the 2nd time having dismissed us the first time thinking it was stress and psyhciatric problems, after having 4 months off work he returned only 3 weeks ago, but his symptoms have got worse. He has agreed to an eeg, he said it was to measure his brain waves? and a contrast MRI but he never said what that was for. My husband has a babinski reflex fascuclations,muscle loss slurred speech clumsiness tripping etc but the worst is the personality change, at my step fathers funeral on wednesday when we came out of the church he went to urinate round the side of the church much to the horror of my mum and the funeral ushers? Our GP thinks he has some sort of progressive motor neuron disease, but the neurologist has said nothing just ordered the tests and given us a date to return in 8 weeks, My husband still thinks he is fit and well and constantly blames me saying i see things that are not there, what can i expect now, does any one know what the contrast MRI is looking for? and does anyone else have problems with reasoning and denial? Thanks Princessbeverley
