I don't have pain, but remember having MS doesn't mean you can't have something else. It could be as simple as a supplement. This may be better addressed by your GP doc than your neurologists.

The bad thing is, Ive been diagnosed with MS for 9 yrs. Have ALot of the other ms symptoms too. Really upset me I was told that, GREAT if I don't, but I think because a student nurse was present he acted different .

I have only brain lesions. 4, and have leg and feet muscle spasms. all my electrolytes were fine. I was told by my neuro it is progression of the disease. sorry you are having so much pain, I truly hope you feel better.

I have 10 lesions, all on my brain. I have lots of pain, sometimes my feet hurt so bad I can hardly walk. My old MS doc & family doc says its from my MS. I bet you can go to 10 different Dr's and get 10 different answers. I moved out of state last year to a cooler climate & I'm terrified to go to a new specialist. I've decided until things get worse I'm sticking with my regular dr. He writes my Copaxone prescription so I'm set.
So sorry you are dealing with all this, you don't need the stress

Thanks for the replies, I am getting another neurologist, an MS Specialist! And you're right tammy, different neurologist , different opinion, that's why a specialist is the way to go. I thought the neurologists were all passed this "no pain in ms ", obviously there's still a few. Ive had spasms for 3 days, pain level has increased, especially at night. None of my meds are working, my left leg has gave awsy 4 times. I called the neurologist 6 days ago when I started having more problems, they still haven't called me bsck and getting a referral for a specialist takes months. Not happy right now

my neuro suggested that my leg discomfort is probably due to the lesions on my spine.

I take osteo panadol which is only slow release panadol.It works really well. I have tried so many things but these very common pain relievers are the best so far.

I suffer from chronic pain in my legs, back, feet as well. I was told that the MS is of "spinal cord etilogy" meaning it is present in my spine. I have terrible back pain and shoulder pain as well.

This "no pain in MS" is is joke!

I'd be worried too if I was told that it was no longer believed that I have MS as I was dx'd almost 20 years ago and no, the pain is no less (it is getting worse as the time passes).

The pain was very bad about 6 hours ago. I finally got it down a few notches enough to catch some sleep.

I'm very sorry to read this and I hope you can get a referral to another neurologist soon!

The worrying is stress that you do not need!

As for lesions in my spine, I don't know that I have any as I never had an MRI of my spine or a spinal tap to find out. It was an assumption as I've had a couple of nasty episodes of going numb from the waist down in the past. Luckily, I got over it to a point.

Keep us posted as to how you are doing!
