Specialist??

After being tested with CT scans and PET scans several years ago for an unrelated issue, i was diagnosed with MS. St one point i spent several months in a wheelchair because i couldn't get my legs to cooperate. Through this i have yet to see any speciList. What kind of doctor do most see for these issues. I am not sure my primary care notices my ms problems are MS.

  1. Hi, !

    I am sorry you have been experiencing such distressing symptoms. Many people with MS try to see a neurologist to help them best manage their condition and your primary care physician should be able to refer you to a neurologist in your area. I will say that not all neurologists are well versed in MS, so finding one that has a firm understanding of MS is important.
