You have a potential serious problem. The OCT does not rule out MS but it cannot make the DX. You will have to discuss this in depth with your Eye MD. MS is often very difficult to DX sometimes it takes years of observation to be certain. You are in good hands.

I do have a f/u appt w/ the neuro-ophtho doc. I was trying to get some input prior to the appt since it's a few weeks away. My neuro doc acted like it was serious when we spoke over the phone and gave me the impression he didn't think it was MS related, so now I feel like what else can it be? Thanks for your response-I'll wait to see if Dr. Hagan has any input.
Thanks again,
Dannig
