Psychologist Evaluated Husband Who Has MS...says Symptoms Are All In His Mind...not MS.

Look up Heidi Maloni. Google her name and contact her. She is in Washington D. C. She is in charge of Veterans with MS. She is very helpful. When you google her name you will find her number and email address. She will return your call. She has been very helpful to me. Also when you move to Philadelphia ask her if you can go to University of Penn right around the corner from the Philly VA. The Philly VA is overwhelmed. The VA should pay for PENN.
