No medication yet, im assuming this is what we'll discuss
Writing a list of questions helps me remember. Trying to take notes when I'm there is helpful too.
Then I research the shit out of it.
Hey, they will most probably ask about your symptoms, they could do tests to see how you walk and to check your manual dexterity of your hands. I think this is called a 9 hold peg test, I think the walking test is called to get an EDSS score which you can Google.
They may discuss treatment options but I think this may be down to a Neurologist to talk to you about that.
They may also give you leaflets to read to give you abit more information, these may include the type of MS you have, financial support and also different sign posting and support available to you.
I hope it goes well for you, just be yourself and be honest about everything you are experiencing, it might also be helpful if you took someone with you for support.
@A MyMSTeam Member Foyle I would also ask about local MS Groups where you can get together and socialise. A chronic condition like MS can become quite isolating... As before, I am just down the road, with 32 years 'experience' (Email address can only be seen by the question and answer creators)
How exciting (and maybe a little nerve-wracking) — a first neurology appointment is a big step! It's a great opportunity to get clarity on your MS and start building a care plan that works for you.
Here's what to expect and bring along:
