OT...Curious as to how many of us have MS on this Forum

[tonyad]

    I have noticed in several post that there are a few of us here w/ AD who are also dx with
Multiple Sclerosis.  Please share as I would like to see how many of us have both AD and MS
becasue I know that they certainly can go hand in hand.

    Thanks in advance for sharing :)

Tonya, thanks appreciate it. Would especially like to show ep.

     Actually if you google AD and MS there is a big correlation between the two.
I will try and find the link for this so you can give it to your Neuro an EP doc.

    Ya, Ya, Fibro tends to be a "Catch All"  for doctors to use.  While it is an acknowledged (sp) condition....It is usually secondary to something else......Not always, but usually!   Hope you find a Neuro that will be attentive to you.  

Keep us updated,

I was dx with dysautonomia in 1995 and then fibro in 2002.

now, I am having new and strange symptoms.  I was wondering if they could be from the dysautonmonia, but I cannot get an answer from anyone on that.

my neuro says my new symptoms are from fibro and my PCP says no way...he thinks it may be MS

I have ms and dyautonomia. Ms diagnosed in 2000 and dysautonomia in 2009 although symptoms started in 2007. My neurologist and rheumatologist both say they believe the 2 are connected but at this point no way to prove it.
