actually among the MS forums I frequent, it's quite common for additional neurological illnesses to be dx or develop afterwards - though one would think karma would kick in and prevent crap like that. Originally Posted by Sheila53

I actually have another neuro disorder called cervical dystonia. A person really shouldn't have two neuro disorders in one lifetime, don't you think?
optic neuritis eh? I had that for a couple months in 05/06... can be very painful - hope you're doing okay!
