Hi, Doni covered it very well. Your doctor is entirely wrong about the constipation - it is a very common MS symptoms. So common that the MS society web page has space dedicated to that topic alone.
Definitely pursue seeing a neurological specialist - something is going on with you and you deserve answers so you can be treated. MS or not, you need to know.

Hi Missy, and welcome to the forum.
In my opinion, yes, you should get your regular physician to refer you to a neuro, best case would be an MS Specialist. If you don't know of one in your area, just call the local MS Society and they can give you the names of the local MS Specialist Neuros.
I think you do have some symptoms that are similar to those of MS. The problem with that is there are also many mimics of MS.
As far as what your physician told you about MS only causing incontinence, she is wrong. There are members here who have constipation and some who have incontenience. It's like my GP telling me that muscle spasms were NOT a symptom of MS.
You will find members here who are diagnosed with MS, and others who are searching for a diagnosis, and even others who have been dx with different things but we just won't let them leave..hahaha You will also find that everyone here is very caring, knowledgeable, and supporting..........you've come to the right place!!!!
Check out our health pages in the upper right hand corner of the page. There is some great info there.
I wish you the best and hope you can find a great neuro who will work to find out what is wrong. Just come here anytime and ask us anything you need to ask. I'm sure others will be one here to give you their opinions also.
Take care,
doni
