Hi everyone, I am new here, as my screen name states I have been misdiagnosed over and over. I was diagnosed with MS in 2012, but in 2013 was told I don't have it because the white spots did not multiply on the MRI...I rejoiced like you couldn't imagine, now that I have been unofficially...

My big horror story.
After seeing several muscular neurologists, I decided to get one more opinion. This time I researched the internet to find a person that had some clout in the ALS network. With help from the ALS organization and many hours I found a neurologist I thought could give me a...
