optic nerve cuppling or thinning

OK  im trying to get my stuff together for my visit to UCSF next Tuesday.. I have optic nerve thinning (same as cuppling) to the optic nerve.  I asked my eye doc is this related to MS... he says its part of glaucoma disease.. I do not have high pressure.. my eye pressure is 12 and normal is anything under 20 ( ithink)  anyway, I have a call out to my eye doctor for him to explain this more to me.. Im having alot of left eye pain and headache on left side above and to the side of that eye.  Has anyone else experienced this?
Take care
Roxanne
